Americans express deep concern about the state of U.S. democracy, though the sources of that concern differ. New research from the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins University and Public Agenda examines how these differences are unfolding within the Republican Party.
Drawing on a national survey of 4,500 Americans and focus groups with Republican participants, the study identifies emerging divisions over presidential power, constitutional limits, elections, and the rule of law. Rather than centering solely on views of the 2020 election, the research traces how broader disagreements about checks and balances and executive authority are shaping attitudes toward democratic institutions.
Join report co-authors Lilliana Mason and Scott Warren for a conversation about what the findings reveal and what they suggest for democratic norms and institutions.
