Testing American trust in 16 separate institutions, Gallup found that 11 are facing "significant declines" in confidence, with the largest being the Supreme Court and the presidency. Since Gallup's last confidence survey in June 2021, American confidence in the Supreme Court fell 11 percentage points and the presidency dropped 15 points.
Compared to last year's survey, trust in Congress also declined. Last year, 12% of respondents stated they had "a great deal" or "quite a lot" of confidence in Congress. This year, however, only 7% gave the same response.
