When asked if they have a favorable or unfavorable

When asked if they have a favorable or unfavorable view of Christian nationalism, around two in ten Americans (21%) say they have a favorable view of Christian nationalism, compared with over four in ten (43%) who hold an unfavorable view. Nearly one-third of Americans (32%) say they have not heard of the term.

Around four in ten white evangelical Protestants (41%) and Latter-day Saints (36%) say they view Christian nationalism favorably, compared with smaller shares of Hispanic Protestants (31%), white Catholics (27%), Black Protestants (25%), white mainline/non-evangelical Protestants (25%), Hispanic Catholics (16%), Jewish Americans (11%), and religiously unaffiliated Americans (8%). More than half of Americans who qualify as Christian nationalism Adherents (53%) view Christian nationalism favorably.

This data comes from PRRI’s survey of more than 5,000 Americans on their views 100 days into the Trump administration. Read more at PRRI.org.

QAnon, a conspiracy theory movement that emerged online in 2017 and remains an influential force in American politics, is back in the media spotlight as President Donald Trump faces backlash from his supporters over his administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

PRRI has tracked belief in QAnon since 2021 by measuring agreement with three key statements:
(1) “True American patriots may have to resort to violence to save our country.”
(2) “There is a storm coming that will sweep away the elites and restore rightful leaders.”
(3) “The government, media, and financial worlds are controlled by Satan-worshipping pedophiles running a global child sex trafficking ring.”

Using a composite score of the three statements, PRRI finds:
🔸 19% of Americans are QAnon believers (up from 14% in 2021)
🔸 49% are doubters
🔸 32% are rejecters

Ahead of the 2024 election, PRRI found that QAnon believers supported Trump over Harris by a margin of more than 60 points (80% said they would vote for Trump vs. 19% for Harris).
