Harry Enten's Poll: The 66-Point Pride Gap Between Republicans and Democrats
At 1:20:15 · chapter starts 1:17:20
Farash plays the Harry Enten CNN clip as statistical punctuation for everything he's argued so far. The numbers are striking: 93% of Republicans report being extremely or very proud to be American, with just 1% saying they have little to no pride. On the Democratic side, only 27% report being extremely or very proud — and the percentage with little or no pride has now surpassed the percentage with very high pride. [1] — Harry Enten "CNN's Harry Enten dropped a striking data point: 93% of Republicans are extremely or very proud to be American, versus only 27% of Democrat…" 1:19:20 Enten describes it as living in 'a completely different universe' depending on your party. Farash responds with a personal testimony: he was in 5th grade on Long Island on September 11, 2001, and the next morning — September 12 — every porch had an American flag. He lists every country on Earth and notes there is only one whose name is attached to a universal 'dream' concept: the American Dream. He argues this is the greatest country on Earth precisely because hard work is still rewarded here more than anywhere else, and he refuses to feel anything but pride regardless of who is in the White House.
