Never Guess Which Side Skews the Numbers: Patriotism Reaches Record Low

A new Gallup survey shows that patriotism in the United States has reached a record low with fewer Americans than ever before saying they consider themselves extremely or very proud of their country.

The Christian Post reports that the new survey released by Gallup, asked 1,000 U.S. adults if they considered themselves proud of their country.

This year, only 58% of those surveyed described themselves as “extremely” or “very” proud to be an American, compared to 67% of respondents who shared that sentiment when surveyed last year.

That constitutes a record low for the 25 years that Gallup has been asking the question.
