In the days leading up to the 4th of July holiday, Gallup released its annual poll asking Americans how proud they are of their country, and found our national pride has hit an all-time low.

The poll found that only 45% feel "Extremely Proud" of the United States, the lowest level polled since Gallup first started asking the question in 2001.


As Gallup summarized:

Last year's poll found just 47% of Americans felt "Extremely Proud" to be American.

"What do you think is causing this decline?"

Trump's coziness with Putin, as well as his draconian immigration policies were popular responses.

With more than 14,000 replies on a tweet retweeted by fewer than 1,000 people, the ratio was in full effect.

People did not hold back.

And of course, there were gifs and memes aplenty:

Any other questions, Fox?

Trump Accidentally Roasts Himself With Ironic Question About 'Stupid People'

President Donald Trump was widely mocked after he attempted to defend his disastrous tariff strategy to reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday and issued a rhetorical question about "stupid people" that said more about him than anyone else.

Trump would later declare a full 90-day suspension of all the “reciprocal” tariffs that took effect at midnight April 10—except for those on China—in a dramatic about-face from a president who had long championed his historically high tariff rates as permanent.
