Americans' trust in nation's court system hits record low, survey...

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

39% : The judicial system more broadly also lost public confidence more quickly than many other U.S. institutions over the last four years.
30% : Among those who did approve of the country´s leadership, there was an 18-point decline between 2023 and 2024, possibly reflecting dissatisfaction with court rulings favoring Trump, Gallup found.
29% : The change comes after a Supreme Court opinion that Trump and other former presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution.
28% : (AP Photo/Jon Elswick, File) Trump had faced four criminal indictments this year, but only a hush-money case in New York ended with a trial and conviction before he won the presidential race.
21% : Trump denies wrongdoing in all.
18% : Still, the 17-point drop recorded among that group under Biden was precipitous, and the cases filed against Trump were likely factors, Gallup said.
