Satisfaction with the way things are going in the United States has plummeted since February, according to a Gallup survey. "The decline since February came in two waves," Gallup explains. First was a decline due to the spread of coronavirus. This was followed by another decline after the killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis.
In February 2020, 45 percent of Americans aged 18 or older said they were satisfied with the way things are going in the U.S., a 15-year high. By early June, only 20 percent said they were satisfied with the way things are going. The decline in satisfaction occurred primarily among Republicans.
