New Pew Study Shows 5 Ways Trump Supporters Are More Patriotic Than Other Voters

A new Pew Research study shows 5 ways Trump supporters are more patriotic than regular GOP voters.

The study showed Trump Supporters are specifically more likely to support 5 “America First” policies – Building a border wall with Mexico, ending unfair trade deals, controlling immigration, begin tough on radical islamic terror and putting america problems ahead of world problems.

Trump supporters have a distinct approach to global affairs, according to Pew Research Center surveys conducted in March and April. Fully 84% of those who support Trump for the GOP presidential nomination favor building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. That compares with 56% of Republican voters who preferred another candidate for the Republican nomination – those who supported Ted Cruz or John Kasich, who last week suspended their presidential campaigns, or volunteered someone else.

Two-thirds of Trump supporters (67%) say free trade agreements have been bad for the country, and 60% say they have definitely or probably hurt their own finances. Among GOP voters who supported other candidates for the party’s nomination, fewer than half (43%) say free trade agreements are bad for the country, while 39% say their own finances have been impacted negatively.
