Summary
With Congress' January 6 Select Committee slated to start work soon, Americans still overwhelmingly disapprove of the events they witnessed that day, a sentiment that includes big majorities of both Republicans and of former President Trump's voters, too — and most do think there's more to learn about it. This less intense disapproval, among some in the Republican base, comes perhaps on the heels of recent comments about the day from former President Trump and others.Descriptors with ideas like freedom and patriotism remain relegated to a smaller — but so far, durable — part of the political right, and Trump voters are more likely than Americans as a whole to use them.The percentage of self-described conservatives who describe what happened as "patriotism" is up a bit from January, about half of self-described conservatives now.
