Recently, the Teamsters Union released the results of internal straw poll, electronic poll, and telephone poll shows significant favor toward Donald Trump over Kamala Harris. This is a shift from polling showing a Democratic lead prior to Biden dropping from the presidential race.
MIG Reports analysis of discourse shows union sentiment moving against Harris and why union workers are gravitating toward Trump.
TEAMSTERS RELEASE PRESIDENTIAL ENDORSEMENT POLLING DATA

Donald Trump has a significant lead among union workers, a critical working and voting group of Americans. Between 58% and 60% support Trump according to recent Teamsters polling. MIG Reports data reflects similar sentiments in voter discussions. Union workers, particularly those in industries like manufacturing and construction, are shifting toward Trump. They say his policies align better with their economic interests and job security.
MIG Reports data shows enthusiasm for Trump among 65.2% of union workers compared to 34.8% for Harris.
Enthusiasm for Trump
The enthusiasm for Trump among union workers is notable and strong, potentially signaling a significant voting bloc shift. Many union members admire Trump’s populist approach and his willingness to challenge the establishment. His "America First" policies, particularly on trade and immigration, resonate deeply with workers who feel threatened by outsourcing and illegal immigration.
Trump’s tough stance on these issues has created a sense of loyalty among union workers. They believe he is the only candidate willing to fight for their jobs and livelihoods. This enthusiasm is reflected in online discussions, where workers express admiration for Trump’s leadership and economic policies.
Reasons for Support
The top issues union workers cite with their support are Trump’s stances on:
Trade
Immigration
Job creation
His trade policies, which focus on protecting American industries and reducing outsourcing, appeal directly to workers who fear losing jobs to foreign competition. His tough rhetoric on immigration, which many view as a threat to job security and wage growth, further solidifies his support.
Meanwhile, Kamala Harris faces significant challenges with gaining union worker support. While she has attempted to court their support through endorsements from labor unions and promises of progressive policies, her association with the Democratic establishment and perceived focus on social justice issues over economic concerns alienates many. Union members skeptical of her record on trade and labor rights often see Harris as out of touch with their immediate needs, particularly regarding job security and economic growth.
Harris's Struggles
While Harris’s platform includes policies aimed at workers’ rights, raising the minimum wage, and addressing income inequality, these issues do not seem to resonate as strongly as Trump’s focus on job security and trade protection. Harris is perceived as more aligned with corporate interests and global trade practices, which many view as harmful to their industries. This disconnect has led to a lack of enthusiasm for her candidacy, as many union members remain unconvinced, she can effectively represent their interests.
In discussing mass deportations, Vice President Kamala Harris recently asked, “How’s that going to happen?” This comment, along with the U.S. government not knowing exactly how many illegal immigrants are in the country stirs impassioned reactions from Americans.

The public sentiment is predominantly critical toward Harris’s stance on immigration. Around 70% of Americans disapprove of her immigration policies and her views on open borders. MIG Reports analysis shows 55% support mass deportations, citing concerns over national security, crime, and the economic burden of illegal immigration. This figure aligns with a recent Scripps News/Ipsos survey showing 54% of Americans support mass deportation.
Americans Are Angry
The conversation around immigration is heated, with many Americans expressing frustration and anger towards Biden-Harris policies. Some common complaints include:
Government failure to enforce existing immigration laws
Large influxes of illegal immigrants
Migrants receiving preferential treatment over American citizens
Around 60% of Americans say the Biden-Harris administration's open border policies are responsible for overwhelming surges in migration. This, they say, includes the subsequent problems associated with it—like issues Ohio residents are facing. Many express concerns over safety and security in their communities, citing crime, violence, and exploitation by illegal immigrants.
Only 25% argue mass deportations are inhumane and unjust. This group says a more comprehensive and inclusive approach to immigration reform is needed. They argue immigrants, regardless of their status, contribute to the economy and enrich American society.
The Border is an Election Issue
MIG Reports analysis of other conversations regarding the border crisis show several supporting narratives.
In election discussions:
53% of Americans believe Trump would handle immigration well
45% believe Harris would handle it well
50% of black Americans believe immigration is negatively impacting their economic opportunities and communities
In swing state discussions:
71% of Americans are concerned about the economic impact of illegal immigration
55% believe Harris's open-border approach is harming the country
These patterns mirror the national perspective that immigration is deeply intertwined with concerns about national security, jobs, and the economy.
An ongoing public debate between Elon Musk and Gavin Newsom, fueled by social media exchanges, reveals American backlash against the CA Governor. In reaction to a parody ad for Kamala Harris using AI to simulate her voice, Newsom proposed legislation to prosecute those sharing “misleading” or “deceptive” content—including memes.
Musk argues this bill infringes on free speech—a view most Americans share. MIG Reports analysis shows discussion themes around free speech, government overreach, misinformation, and public trust.
I checked with renowned world authority, Professor Suggon Deeznutz, and he said parody is legal in America 🤷♂️ https://t.co/OCBewC3XYD
The issue of free speech dominates the conversation, with 76.67% of the public siding with Elon Musk. The overwhelming support for Musk stems from a strong belief that Newsom’s proposed law threatens the First Amendment. Many express concerns that government involvement in regulating parody or memes sets a dangerous precedent for future censorship.
Phrases like "tyrant," "communist," and "totalitarian" are frequently directed at Newsom, highlighting the hardline stance on this issue. For most Americans, free speech is an essential American value that must be protected at all costs—regardless of the risks posed by allegations of misinformation.
Government Overreach and Political Polarization
This debate between Musk and Newsom over memes has become a flashpoint for broader concerns about government overreach. Voters frame Newsom’s bill as an unconstitutional attempt to silence critics, positioning him as an authoritarian figure seeking to impose his will on the public.
Conservatives and Independents are particularly strong in their disapproval. Only 15.5% of the MIG Reports sample express support for Newsom. This group says the bill is a necessary tool to protect elections and prevent false information from corrupting democratic processes. However, even within this group, some express unease over the potential for government abuse.
The Role of Misinformation
The minority position emphasizes curbing “misinformation” to protect public trust in elections. Supporters say, though parody and memes are included in free expression, they can also undermine democratic integrity by pedaling deceptive narratives. This group believes the bill strikes a balance between free speech and public safety. They acknowledge that unchecked falsehoods have the potential to cause real harm. Despite this perspective, they struggle to gain traction in a conversation dominated by opposition to government censorship.
Public Distrust in Government
The conversation surfaces recurring American feelings of distrust toward government institutions. Musk’s framing of the debate—portraying Newsom as attacking free speech—resonates with those already skeptical of governmental power.
Many see the bill as part of a broader pattern of government interference in individual rights. They say censorship laws places public discourse in the hands of those in power, allowing them to determine what is considered “misinformation” or “deceptive.” This perception of government power grabs strengthens Musk's position as a defender of the people’s rights against an overbearing state.
Especially on X, voters view Musk as a champion of free speech. Their distrust fuels the debate and amplifies feelings of anger against government censorship and speech crackdowns akin to those seen in Europe.
Neutral and Undecided Voices
While the conversation is highly polarized, around 9.5% remain neutral or nuanced. This group either expresses uncertainty about the implications of Newsom's bill or attempt to frame the debate in more measured terms.
Some believe that while the bill has flaws, its intention may have merit. These voices suggest there is still room for debate and constructive discourse, though they are largely overshadowed by the more extreme rhetoric from both sides.
The arrest of Sean "P Diddy" Combs on charges of sex trafficking and racketeering has sparked widespread discussions. Americas voice many reactions from disgust, outrage, to disillusionment.
Many view the allegations against Diddy as a turning point in holding powerful figures accountable. Others express cynicism regarding the outcome. The discussions both include opinions on Diddy and views of broader issues tied to the justice system, media coverage, and human trafficking.
BREAKING: @Diddy is now spending his days in New York’s most notorious jail, known for its “barbaric conditions.” 300+ grand jury subpoenas later, Diddy can’t wiggle his out of this one. And he’s not the only one… pic.twitter.com/M64EDxQUbh
5%: Tying Diddy’s arrest to other topics like border security
Shock, Outrage, and Disgust
The majority of online conversations focus on shock and outrage. People react strongly to the charges, expressing disgust at the alleged actions of a celebrity like Diddy. Many condemn his behavior, viewing his arrest as a critical moment for justice.
These reactions reflect a collective demand for accountability, particularly in relation to the heinous nature of sex trafficking. Voters demand justice, some calling for a harsh sentence, seeing this case as representing broader issues of exploitation in powerful circles.
Validation of Long-Held Suspicions
Many Americans express a sense of validation. They say they have long suspected Diddy of inappropriate behavior, adopting an, “I told you so" attitude. For this group, Diddy's arrest confirms rumors and accusations that have circulated for years.
This group views Diddy’s downfall as inevitable, reinforcing preconceptions about corruption and abuse of power in the music industry. These suspicions, now appearing substantiated, fuel arguments about systemic wrongdoing among celebrities and elites.
Criticism of Media and Justice System
There is also widespread frustration and distrust toward the media and justice system. Observers claim both institutions often protect wealthy, powerful individuals from facing serious consequences. Some view the media as complicit, either ignoring damaging stories or failing to investigate them thoroughly.
Many doubt whether Diddy will truly be held accountable, fearing his influence and wealth may shield him from the full weight of the law. This cynicism is common in conversations connecting Diddy’s case to overarching failures of justice for victims of trafficking.
Skepticism and Division
Although less common, some conversations reveal skepticism about the allegations. This group questions the legitimacy of the charges and the motivations behind the accusations. This contributes to a sense of division, as people debate whether Diddy is being targeted unfairly or whether the allegations are true. As with most topics, not everyone immediately accepts the narrative presented by prosecutors or the media.
Tying to Broader Topics
A smaller subset of conversations shifts the focus away from Diddy specifically, tying the story to broader political or social issues. One common connection is trafficking across the border and government immigration failures. These links point to larger concerns about human trafficking, using Diddy’s alleged actions as an example of how political decisions and systemic failures allow exploitation to flourish. Though not a dominant theme, this attachment reveals how some people frame high-profile cases like Diddy’s within wider political debates.
The recent pager and beeper explosions targeting Hezbollah members across Lebanon and Syria have ignited widespread reactions among Americans. As Israel’s operation unfolds, Americans and international observers engage in heated debates. Pro-Israel voices express admiration for the operation's precision while pro-Palestine advocates condemn the attack. Voter discourse shows:
45% of Americans speak out against the attacks
35% support the operation
30% are neutral
Supporting the Operation
Israel supporters praise the ingenuity and boldness of the beeper operation. They marvel at Israel’s ability to infiltrate Hezbollah’s communication network and conduct simultaneous detonations across multiple locations. Many describe the operation as a masterstroke, calling it "audacious" and comparing it to scenes from a spy thriller.
Some believe this is a game-changing blow to Hezbollah’s infrastructure, framing the operation as a significant victory for Israeli intelligence. The use of technology to exploit Hezbollah's vulnerabilities resonates with those who see the attack as a critical move to disrupt terrorist activities and protect regional security.
Supporters say targeting Hezbollah operatives with precision, while avoiding large-scale collateral damage, demonstrates Israel's military capability and strategic advantage in modern warfare.
Against the Operation
Those condemning the attack, typically pro-Paletine Democrats, express outrage over its indiscriminate nature and the resulting civilian casualties. Critics label the operation a "war crime" and accuse Israel of terrorism, pointing out the explosions not only targeted Hezbollah members but also injured and killed innocent civilians, including children and medical workers.
The ethical implications of using such technology raise alarm for this group. They argue remote detonation of devices blur the line between targeted strikes and indiscriminate violence. Some see the operation as a disproportionate response, reflecting a broader pattern of aggressive military tactics by Israel.
This group also draws attention to what they perceive as a double standard in how international media and governments react to such incidents. They say if a similar attack had been carried out by Hezbollah, it would have been universally condemned as terrorism.
Neutral Perspectives
Neutral observers take an analytical approach, focusing on the broader implications of the operation and the Israel-Hamas conflict overall. These discussions explore the strategic use of technology in modern warfare, noting the ability to detonate devices remotely represents a significant evolution in combat tactics.
Some express concern about the precedent this sets for future conflicts, questioning whether such tactics could be used against civilians or exploited in other theaters of war. Others analyze the potential geopolitical consequences, speculating on how Hezbollah or other groups may retaliate and what the long-term effects could be for Israel. Americans allyship with Israel sparks debates about the potential for escalating tensions.
Days prior to Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s announcement of a 0.5% rate cut, many reports speculated about the impending announcement. Americans just before the announcement, Americans were expressing outright skepticism and frustration at the idea.
Today, the national mood reflects widespread dismissal, with many questioning the government’s motives and doubting the effectiveness of Fed interventions. While there is scant support for the rate cut—though not wholesale support for the Fed—it is overshadowed by concerns interventions are politically motivated. Many say government actions primarily serves corporate and political interests rather than struggling Americans.
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates massively, just 48 days ahead of the election. Thank god for the independence of the Fed! 😅
Funny how some of us last year predicted exactly this would happen.
Skepticism is the dominant theme across both housing and economic conversations. MIG Reports analysis shows 66.7% of voters view the rate cuts as a political maneuver designed to boost the economy ahead of upcoming elections.
In housing-specific discussions, skepticism focuses on the belief that rate cuts will benefit corporations more than ordinary families. Across multiple data sets, concerns about affordability, rising housing costs, and inflation surface repeatedly. This fuels feelings that the government is out of touch with the everyday challenges facing Americans.
Supportive-ish Tones
Though skepticism is dominant, there is a smaller but notable group—around 21% to 31%—who view the rate cuts positively. These voters say interest rate cuts are a necessary step to stimulate economic growth and help families.
However, even within this more optimistic group, concerns about broader economic issues and banking turmoil remain. This suggests fragile public trust in government initiatives.
Day Late, Dollar Short
The conversations also consistently highlight inflation, economic inequality, and housing affordability. Americans across various online discussions express frustration at the rising cost of living. They voice frustration about everything from groceries to healthcare rising in costs and becoming unaffordable.
Many argue government and Fed intervention, including rate cuts and housing assistance proposals, fail to address the root causes of these problems. Some say these supposed “fixes” often worsen problems by benefiting corporations and government more than average citizens. This sense of economic insecurity reinforces a narrative of distrust, where political decisions are perceived as disconnected from the needs of ordinary people.
The relationship between non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and their relationship with Mexican cartels and other transnational criminal organizations is complex. MIG Reports analysis shows significant American concerns about these issues, particularly human trafficking and government complicity in crime activity.
There is a noticeable focus on the perceived failures of both NGOs and the Biden-Harris administration in addressing cartels furthering human trafficking and illegal immigration. This analysis highlights discussion trends, dominate concerns, and public sentiment about border security and the role of NGOs.
How Americans Feel
Voter discussions across thousands of comments is overwhelmingly negative:
39.4% of the conversation focuses on human trafficking
50.1% conveys belief in illegal activities by cartels and NGOs
27.8% focuses on criticizing the Biden-Harris administration
28% links cartels to fentanyl trafficking, emphasizing the connection between the opioid crisis and border security concerns.
The conversations reflect deep skepticism toward the government’s ability to protect citizens and frustration with the perceived complicity of NGOs in facilitating illegal activities through funding channels and logistical coordination.
Government Criticism and Accountability
Many Americans mention the Biden-Harris administration negatively in conversations about illegal cartel activity and border issues. They blame the administration’s border policies for enabling human trafficking and fentanyl smuggling. Voters argue the government’s refusal to secure the border has led to a rise in both trafficking and opioid-related deaths.
Americans are particularly vocal about their frustration with Democratic inaction. There is sharp criticism and concern that Biden-Harris policies prioritize the needs of immigrants over the safety of American citizens. This harsh critique reveals a widespread sentiment that government leadership is not concerned about protecting vulnerable Americans or addressing pressing border control problems.
NGOs and Their Role in Immigration and Trafficking
NGOs come under heavy fire in these discussions, with 50% linking them to illegal immigration and human trafficking. Americans believe NGOs, often funded by taxpayer money, facilitate illegal activities either through direct involvement or by offering support that allows traffickers and cartels to operate freely.
Many express outrage over NGOs profiting from the very problems they claim to solve. The conversation also highlights concerns that NGOs are enabling child exploitation by allowing traffickers to use legal loopholes to smuggle children across borders. This widespread criticism of NGOs reflects a deep sense of betrayal, as users perceive these ostensibly humanitarian organizations as working against national interests and using public funds.
Human Trafficking and Fentanyl Crisis
Human and drug trafficking is another deeply negative conversation. Nearly 40% of the discussion focuses on illegal trafficking. Americans are angry and worried about the exploitation of vulnerable populations, especially children. Many view child trafficking as a growing crisis which the government does nothing to solve.
Voters say government negligence, coupled with the actions of NGOs, is exacerbating the problem. Conversations are deeply emotional, often sharing personal stories or using vivid imagery to convey the severity of the safety issues for kids.
Drug trafficking, specifically fentanyl smuggling, is also linked to cartel activity and border security. Americans view Biden-Harris policies as directly contributing to the fentanyl crisis ravaging communities and families across the country. The connection between human trafficking and drug trafficking is a recurring theme, reinforcing the idea that these are intertwined issues which government has failed to address adequately.
The assassination attempts on former President Donald Trump have sparked a firestorm of online discourse. Recently, a U.S. Secret Service representative, while speaking at a press event, delivered a remark that continued the unsettling mood:
“There could be another geopolitical event that could put the United States into a kinetic conflict or some other—uh—some other issue, that may result in additional responsibilities and protectees of the Secret Service.”

MIG Reports analysis shows reactions are intense and divided with widespread skepticism towards agencies like the Secret Service and growing fears of violent conflict. This analysis dissects key themes and sentiments driving voter conversations, highlighting how Americans view the federal government’s relationship with Americans.
Top Discussion Topics
Polarization and Division (30%): The most dominant theme, reflecting deep political divides and hostility between opposing groups.
Distrust of Institutions (25%): Many Americans don’t trust the federal government, the Secret Service, or the media, speculating about perceived deceptive narratives.
Fear of War (20%): There is significant concern about potential violence or civil war, adding to the national anxiety.
Assassination Attempts and Accountability (15%): Discussions focus on blame and responsibility for Trump’s attempted assassination.
Media Bias (10%): Voters also discuss media manipulation and bias, contributing to the broader sense of corrupted institutions.
These themes collectively illustrate a nation gripped by uncertainty, fear, and blame. Most voters discussing the Secret Service and the recent Trump assassination attempt blame Democrats and the media.
62% blame Democrats and the media
21% blame Trump’s rhetoric
Polarization and Division
Routh’s assassination attempt intensifies already stark divisions between political parties. Both sides of the political aisle are quick to assign blame, with many on the right accusing Democrats of fostering an environment that encourages violence.
Left-leaning groups argue Trump's own divisive rhetoric is responsible for inflaming tensions. The conversation is steeped in animosity, as voters lash out against opposing ideologies. This polarization underscores how deeply fractured the nation is, with little room for compromise or shared understanding.
Distrust of Institutions
A majority of Americans express distrust toward institutions and agencies like the Secret Service and the FBI, claiming the media helps them present deceptive narratives. Many question the competence of the Secret Service in protecting Trump, with some even suggesting a mole or intentional negligence.
Skepticism extends to the media, where accusations of bias and propaganda are rampant. This pervasive feeling of animosity feeds into speculations about corrupt establishment motivations as voters question if they're being lied to. The lack of faith in these legacy institutions only deepens divisions between Americans.
Fear of Civil Unrest and Kinetic Conflict
Amid the blame and distrust, the potential for civil unrest or even civil war looms. Many conversations express anxiety over the country teetering on the edge of violent conflict. These fears are inflamed by comments like that of acting Secret Service director Ronald Rowe.
Terms like "kinetic conflict" appear frequently, suggesting a fear that corrupt government officials are willing to allow continued safety breaches to further their political ends. This theme reflects a growing unease about the future of the nation, where political violence could become the norm rather than the exception.
Assassination Attempts and Accountability
While assassination attempt is driving conversation, it is often paired with debate over who should be held accountable. Some call for greater security measures, citing the two recent and egregious attempts on Trump as evidence of institutional negligence.
Others argue that, whether from Trump or Democratic leaders, plays a significant role in fostering the climate of violence. This group calls for accountability, but there is disagreement about where the blame truly lies. This lack of clarity contributes to a broader sense of frustration and fear.
Media Bias
The media’s influence in shaping public perception is another recurring theme. Many on the right accuse mainstream media outlets of downplaying the seriousness of the assassination attempts. Those on the left decry media for not holding Trump and his supporters accountable for inciting violence.
Many express a belief that legacy media is complicit in spreading false narratives and stoking division. These criticisms reinforce distrust in institutions as people increasingly view media outlets as aligned with Democratic political agendas. The result is American voters seeking alternative news sources which often confirm their biases.
Potential Outcomes
A possible conclusion for recurring discussion themes of distrust is that Americans may be growing increasingly reactionary. Strong suspicions against institutions like the federal government and media, coupled with a desire to reverse perceived societal decline, points to more than just frustration.
Discussion often includes conspiratorial speculations and fears of civil war, which are common markers of reactionary movements. These conversations indicate longing for a return to a more "stable" past, rejection of progressive changes, and an inclination to view modern institutions as illegitimate or corrupt.
Together, these elements suggest the nation is increasingly embracing reactionary thinking, where the goal is not merely reform but a reversal of recent political and social developments. If this sentiment grows, it could lead to a movement that seeks to dismantle much of the progress made in recent decades.
An ABC whistleblower affidavit alleging the Harris campaign colluded with ABC to cheat in the presidential debate is generating controversy. MIG Reports analysis shows deep mistrust of the media and government institutions, with voters reacting to the polarized political environment.
Yesterday, ABC made a statement regarding the whistleblower affidavit. The only thing ABC said was that they did not give the questions or the topics to the Harris campaign. Well, nobody accused ABC of doing that. ABC has been accused of the following:
1.) Giving the Harris…
— Black Insurrectionist--I FOLLOW BACK TRUE PATRIOTS (@DocNetyoutube) September 17, 2024
There is strong sense of skepticism and disillusionment, particularly among Trump supporters. They often express beliefs that the establishment is working against him. Conversations also highlight a growing narrative of "waking up" to the realization that systemic bias and corruption permeate media coverage and political processes.
Endorsements from prominent anti-establishment figures like Elon Musk and certain rappers and businessmen also generate enthusiasm from voters who do not necessarily view themselves as conservative but align with Trump’s anti-establishment image.
What Voters are Saying
35% of discussions express distrust toward the media and establishment politics, highlighting widespread skepticism of institutional credibility.
25% mention polarization and tribalism, illustrating sharp divisions among factions.
20% discuss the concept of "waking up" to establishment bias, saying they now see through media manipulation for the first time.
10% voice distrust of political parties and the rise of conspiracy theories.
Negative sentiment related to the “whistleblower” keyword is not directed toward the individual, but the information revealed in the affidavit which, if true, strongly condemns ABC and Disney.
Media and Establishment Loses Credibility
35% of discussions express distrust toward the media and establishment.
Distrust of mainstream media and the political establishment underpins most voter conversations about the ABC whistleblower. Many believe the media, particularly outlets like ABC, actively work to manipulate public opinion against Trump.
People use words like "bias," "fake news," and "deep state." This exemplifies concerns that legacy institutions are not untrustworthy and involved in a coordinated effort to undermine Trump's candidacy. Negative sentiment extends both to media bias and a rejection of establishment politics as voters feel disconnected and disillusioned.
Polarization and Tribalism
25% mention polarization and tribalism.
Both pro-Trump and anti-Trump factions engage in deeply tribal behavior. Conversations are emotionally charged, with voters using inflammatory language to attack the opposing side. Rather than fostering nuanced debate, these interactions often devolve into accusations of "communism," "racism," “threats to democracy,” and "fascism."
Party loyalty often overshadows good faith conversations, reinforcing an "us vs. them" mentality. Entrenched divisions in the American electorate show each side increasingly views the other as an existential threat to the country’s future.
"Waking Up" Narrative
20% discuss the concept of "waking up" to establishment bias.
Many voters say they are "waking up" to institutional and establishment corruption. They believe the media, political elites, and other institutional forces are aligned in opposition to Trump’s re-election.
This group often says they have only recently become aware of this anti-Trump coordination. New and longstanding Trump supporters see themselves as having pierced through the veil of establishment propaganda. They see themselves as champions of truth and defenders against an oppressive establishment.
Distrust Toward Political Parties
10% voice distrust of political parties and the rise of conspiracy theories.
There is noticeable frustration with political parties—especially the Republican Party for not defending Trump. Some conversations reveal dissatisfaction with the GOP, where voters express disappointment that establishment Republicans do not push back against liberal media and political forces.
This internal criticism highlights a fragmentation in partisan politics, which aligns with previous reports of political realignment away from parties and in favor of ideology. Republican Party leaders—especially RINOs—are seen as either complicit or ineffectual in protecting conservative values.
Conspiracy theories and misinformation often generate discussion along with partisan disillusionment. Many share and discuss speculations about the deep state working with the media to rig elections, spread disinformation, or otherwise undermine Trump.
These theories often tie into broader fears about globalism, socialism, or corporate influence over politics. This element of the conversation suggests a growing distrust of official narratives to explain current events.
This sentiment is evident in reactions to Governor Ron DeSantis announcing an independent state investigation of the most recent Trump assassination attempt, citing distrust in the same federal agencies which many believe are targeting Trump.
