From Breitbart: Democrats have hit another historic low in that just over one-third of them are either very or extremely proud to be an American, while Gen Z stands out as the least proud generation, a recent Gallup survey finds.
While a majority of those surveyed across the board — 58 percent — said they are either extremely or very proud to be an American, Gallup points out that this is actually a record-low. Last year, for example 67 percent said the same, and the all-time high appears to be in 2002 — right after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks — and 2004, when 91 percent said they were proud to be an American.
Another 19 percent identify themselves as moderately proud to be an American, 11 percent are a “little” proud, and nine percent are not proud at all.
Pride in being an American drastically differs on party lines. Only 36 percent of Democrats — an all-time low — say they are extremely or very proud to be an American. This is significantly down from 62 percent who said the same last year, in 2024. An all-time high of Democrats, 92 percent, said they were either extremely or very proud to be an American in 2002.
However, among Republicans, 92 percent said they are either extremely or very proud to be an American.

The Gallup survey noted that older generations are more proud to be Americans than the younger generations. Gallup writes:
The youngest two generations, millennials (born between 1980 and 1996) and Generation Z (born after 1996), are the most distinct. From 2021 to 2025, less than half (41%) of adults who belong to Generation Z have been extremely or very proud to be Americans, compared with 58% of millennials. The rate increases to 71% of Generation X, 75% of the baby boom generation and 83% of the Silent Generation.
Overall, only 58% of U.S. adults say they are “extremely” (41%) or “very” (17%) proud to be an American.

The Gallup survey also revealed that only Republicans put a major priority on faith.
Republicans prioritize family (66%) and faith (48%) when it comes to top values, while Democrats choose family (40%) and health (29%).
