This stood out to me:

The poll comes also as Republicans hold a slight partisan edge over Democrats, which shows that 45% of Americans are Republican or lean-Republican, while 42% are Democrat or lean-Democratic, per Gallup.

That’s a change from previous years, including in 2022, when an equal number of Americans said they consider themself a Republican or a Democrat.

Democrats held a partisan edge over Republicans in 2020, 2018 and 2016, per the average of Gallup party affiliation polls from those years.

      I’ve never seen a “Biden 2024 make conservatives cry again” bumper sticker, but that kind of toxicity is commonplace in the republican party

          It’s about the illusion of winning. The average Republican voter votes against their best interests but does so to stick it to the left.
