Findings in the latest survey from the Gallup organization show that public confidence level in U.S. institutions dropped again from June, 2022 to June, 2023, bringing the average to a record low. Confidence in the presidency, which dropped a whopping 30 points between 2020 and 2022, rebounded by just three points to 26 percent, and there is a wide discrepancy between Republicans, only 8 percent of whom were confident, and Democrats, who had 47 percent confidence level in the institution. As low as the numbers are for the presidency, they are still higher than five other institutions: Newspapers (18 %), the Criminal Justice System (17 %)  Big Business and Television News (both at 14 %) and Congress (8 %).
