Overview

  • The June Gallup survey reports only 58 percent of adults are “extremely” or “very” proud to be American, marking the lowest level since polling began.
  • Pride among Democrats has plunged from 62 percent in 2024 to 36 percent in June 2025, while Republican pride stands at 92 percent, up from its post-2016 low.
  • A National Research Inc. poll shows just half of Democrats identify as patriots compared to 91 percent of Republicans and reveals 87 percent of conservatives versus 51 percent of liberals sharing patriotic sentiment.
  • Generational gaps are stark with only 41 percent of Generation Z and 58 percent of Millennials reporting high pride in being American, versus over 70 percent among older cohorts.
  • Prominent national conservative voices like Yoram Hazony are calling for a patriotism revival grounded in honor, tradition and national sovereignty to rebuild collective pride.
