POLL: More Americans increasingly Believe Democracy May Die

According to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll, most Democrats (55%) and Republicans (53%) now believe that it’s “likely” the United States will “cease to be a democracy in the future.”

Nearly half of all Americans (49%) share similar views when independents and other individuals without political affiliations are surveyed. By contrast, 25% think the end of US democracy is unlikely and another 25% said they’re unsure. 

These results come against the backdrop of the recent January 6, 2021 hearings that the DC ruling class is using to investigate the January 6 storming of the capitol. 

Thankfully, Americans couldn’t care less about the January 6 hearings.

According to this survey, only 24% of respondents said they watched the first live broadcast of the committee hearings on June 9. 

27% said they saw the news about the January 6 hearings later on.

49% indicated that they did not follow the hearings. 

Live viewership of the hearings was very partisan in nature. For example, live viewership was lowest among voters of former President Donald Trump, Republicans (13%), and Fox News viewers (22%). 

On the other hand, Democrats were much more engaged with these hearings. Viewership highest among Joe Biden voters (47%), Democrats (44%) and MSNBC’s audience (52%). Almost three-quarters (72%) of those who tuned in identified as Democrats or Democratic-leaning independents.

Overall, Democrats, who believe that January 6 was on par with the Pearl Harbor and 9/11 attacks, are the ones who view this incident as a full-frontal assault on democracy. This is clearly the view of people who treat the Capitol as a sacred place of sorts, almost like a cathedral. 

This poll is a good indicator of where the US is headed from here on out. And believe me, the future ain’t going to look pretty. Support Big League Politics by making a donation today.
