A Third of Voters Are Less Proud to Be American Than They Were in 2020, and Even Taylor Swift’s Endorsement Won’t Make a Difference

With the presidential election just months away, a third of voters across the country are less proud to be Americans than they were just four years ago.

As voters prepare to vote in November, an exclusive survey by The US Sun shows that there is not much that can change their decision about who they want to vote for.

This fall, President Joe Biden is expected to face former President Donald Trump in a bid for another four years in the White House.

Although neither candidate has previously been nominated by the Democratic or Republican National Committee, neither politician has a dominant opponent in their representative parities.

A poll conducted for The US Sun shows that voters remain sharply divided between Biden and Trump, with the former president maintaining a slight lead of 42% voter support over Biden’s 41% support.

Both candidates began to receive strong support from their parties and notable celebrities.

However, survey data shows that this support is unlikely to have an impact on voters’ decisions.

Polls have found that only 20% of Americans say a celebrity endorsement would impact who they plan to vote for.

This percentage is even lower among voters of the baby boomer generation, as only 9% said the same.

Approximately 17% of voters who identify as Generation X also said that endorsements from notable figures like Taylor Swift would impact their vote.

However, 33% of millennial voters said it would have an impact.

The poll interviewed 1,000 voters, 36% of whom identified as Democrats and 34% said they identified as Republicans.

Another 24% said they identified as Independent, or the Green/Libertarian Party, while 7% said they did not associate with any party.

As other research found While most Americans are unhappy with the likely presidential showdown, many have also seen their national pride shaken.

Over the past four years, Americans have seen months of student protests against Biden’s apparent lack of action on the Israel-Palestine conflict, ongoing legal troubles for Trump, tensions between states following the overturn of Roe v. Russia and Ukraine, as well as a historic global coronavirus pandemic.

Now, about a third of Americans (33%) say they are less proud to be American than they were in 2020.

Comparatively, 26% of Americans said they were prouder than they were four years ago.

In 2020, the presidential elections saw a record voter turnout of 66.6%.

This year, approximately 244 million Americans are expected to be able to vote in November.

Polls have suggested this year’s clash could be the closest since 2000.

Biden and Trump will face off in a televised debate next week, which will be broadcast on CNN on June 27.

The debate will be the first time the two candidates appear on stage together since the 2020 presidential campaign.

Biden and Trump are also scheduled to appear in a second debate hosted by ABC on September 10, just eight weeks before the November 5 election.
