In a recent poll conducted by ABC News, The Washington Post, and Ipsos, two-thirds of Americans expressed concerns about the nation’s trajectory. The survey revealed that 67% of participants believe the country is significantly off course, while only 32% feel it is moving in a positive direction.

The poll, carried out last week, highlights a stark partisan divide. An overwhelming 95% of Democrats and 77% of independents are worried about the country’s current path. In contrast, only 29% of Republicans share this anxiety.

Demographic insights from the poll show that 87% of Black respondents, 71% of both Hispanic and Asian participants, and 61% of white Americans perceive the nation as headed in the wrong direction.

This survey marks a notable change from November 2024, when 75% of those surveyed expressed a similar concern about the country’s direction just before the election.

The latest survey represents a drop from November 2024, right before the election, when 75 percent said the country was headed in the wrong direction.

At the same time, respondents largely view both parties as out of touch with the concerns of most Americans.

This trend is particularly true for the Democratic Party, which is viewed by 68 percent of respondents as “out of touch” and only 30 percent as “in touch” with most people’s concerns in the U.S. today.

Sixty-one percent view the Republican Party as out of touch, while 37 percent say it’s in touch; 63 percent say Trump is out of touch, while 36 percent say he’s in touch with the concerns of most Americans.

The survey, conducted Oct. 24-28, included 2,725 adults, with a margin of error of 1.9 percentage points.
