NBC’s Steve Kornacki Breaks Down New Poll Showing Declining Trend Of Feeling Proud To Be American
Only a third of respondents to a poll conducted for NBC News by Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates and Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies said they felt “extremely proud” to be Americans. That response was less than half of what was recorded in 2003, when 70% described themselves that way. At the other end of it: ‘only a little’ or ‘not proud at all,’ 21%,” Kornacki told “Meet the Press” host Kristen Welker.
