WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Nine in 10 Americans are satisfied with the way things are going in their personal life, a new high in Gallup's four-decade trend. The latest figure bests the previous high of 88% recorded in 2003.
What is your point?....WORDING/PHRASING is everything when surveying....I am SATISFIED
with my personal life.....the method in which my government is operating...NOT so much, in fact,
I see it as one huge FUBAR....ask the question in a different manner, you will get a different answer.
Despite the hard core left wingers whining, people do appear happier. A steady diet of paychecks and raises tend to do that. Ratings for the Democrat debates are down. And voting was down in Iowa for the Dems too. Will this trend hold for the New Hampshire primary?
If the Democrats can't inflame the majority of Americans into getting out to vote, they might have a hard time taking back the White House. But after three years of constant "gate" type scandals that fall flat, maybe America is tired of the sham hysteria?

Are people generally satisfied with their lives if they are not satisfied with their jobs and income? I odon't know about you, but the times of my life when i was struggling with money were the times i wasn't nearly as satisfied as I am now with a good job and a lot of optimism for our economy. (unless I wake up tomorrow worried about a "fourth turning")lol
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
A new Gallup poll released Monday found that Americans have become considerably more optimistic about the state of race relations since Trump took office, with a 14-point increase over just three years.
Satisfaction on “the state of race relations” in the country rose from a mere 22 percent in January 2017, just before Trump took office, to 36 percent in January 2020, just weeks before Trump’s State of the Union address.
Race relations optimism still remains 8 points lower than it was in 2001, and a survey of the population from January 2 to January 15 showed that 58 percent of Americans were still dissatisfied with the state of race relations.
Respondents’ satisfaction with “the position of blacks and other racial minorities in the nation” also rose nine points over three years to 46 percent in 2020, as part of a larger trend which showed that Americans overall satisfaction with the direction of the country was at its highest point since 2005.{/quote]

I think it's because Obama and his lapdog media was trying to convince everybody that race relations were declining. Now we are able to see reality when the worthless media has been focused on taking out Trump instead of pushing their false narratives people are not feeling.

Americans More Satisfied With Economy, National Security After 3 Years of Trump: Gallup Poll
"The polling data, released on Jan. 27, found that public satisfaction with the nation’s economy, security from terrorism, military strength, and the state of race relations rose by double-digits.
Americans who are satisfied with the nation’s economy rose to 68 percent, up 22 percentage points from January 2017, when the number was 46 percent. A similar increase was recorded about the handling of anti-terror security, which rose 18 percentage points to 68 percent from 50 percent.
Satisfaction with military strength and preparedness rose 15 percentage points to 81 percent from 66 percent, while Americans are more upbeat about the state of race relations, showing an increase to 36 percent from 22 percent, amid falling African American unemployment rates.
Other issues also saw a jump in public satisfaction, including the nation’s policies to reduce and control crime (with a 47 percent satisfaction in 2020), the position of blacks and other racial minorities in the nation (46 percent satisfaction), income and wealth distribution in the country (43 percent satisfaction), and the opportunities for individuals to get ahead by working hard (72 percent satisfaction).
Meanwhile, respondents to the survey indicated less satisfaction in several areas, including the quality of the environment, which fell to 46 percent from 52 percent; the level of immigration into the country, to 35 percent from 41 percent; and the nation’s policies regarding abortion, which fell to 32 percent from 39 percent."
