Anger Rattles US Politics
The midterm election season has revealed growing anger and divisions within both the Republican and Democratic parties, alongside declining trust in institutions and voters’ frustration with economic conditions and Trump’s policies—including tariffs, the confrontation with Iran, and rising prices. According to Gallup polling, just 15% believe that most members of Congress deserve to be reelected, the lowest share since 1994. Meanwhile, 45% identify as political independents, the highest figure on record. In nine of the last ten elections, voters have also taken one of the two parties out of control of either a chamber of Congress or the White House. These shifts could open the door to political realignment, the rise of younger leaders, and broader agreement on the cost of living. But the direction and scale of change will become clear through election results, while the ideological currents that dominate primary elections may hinder a move toward the center.
