Government and International Affairs

Opinions on Trump’s conviction remained stable in recent weeks. The public is more likely to approve of Hunter Biden’s conviction and think he should receive a prison sentence.

The public lacks confidence in the Supreme Court generally and their handling of key issues before them. Most believe justices are shaping the law to fit their own ideologies, rather than serving as an independent check for other branches of government.

Most adults say they are likely to follow coverage of the debate, but few are satisfied with either Biden or Trump as the nominees.
