Washington | Almost 90 per cent of Americans say they are dissatisfied with the state of the country, and their unhappiness is affecting their political decisions four months before the presidential election, a new study from Pew Research Center shows.
Only 17 per cent of Americans of any party say they are "proud" of the US, while 71 per cent say they feel angry and 66 per cent fearful. Just 12 per cent of Americans say they are satisfied with the direction of the country, less than half of the 31 per cent who said the same in a study in April; 87 per cent now say they are dissatisfied.
