Only 45% of Americans have a “great deal of trust and confidence” in the military, according to the poll released Wednesday by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute.

The nation’s confidence in the military dropped 11 percentage points since the start of the Biden administration, according to the survey.

The pollsters said the survey’s results are based on a “general negative sense” in the country rather than a specific reason, although political leadership tops the list.

Only a third of adults under the age of 30 have high confidence in the military, which could pose problems with recruiting in the future, according to the survey.

“This is the first time a single adversary has captured a majority of respondents’ concerns since the survey began,” the pollsters said.

The survey reflected what pollsters said was a “growing ambivalence” about America’s role in the world.
