About this research<\/summary>\n

This Pew Research Center study goes beyond Americans\u2019 partisan attachments and vote choices to explore the values and attitudes that underlie the political landscape and the Republican and Democratic parties. We did this by creating a political typology, which classifies the public into nine groups based on their responses to 30 questions about government, economics, immigration, elected officials and other topics. To learn more about this project, jump to \u201cAbout the political typology<\/a>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why did we do this?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Pew Research Center conducts research to help the public, media and decision-makers understand important topics. We have studied Americans\u2019 political values and attitudes, and their views on politics more broadly, for decades. This is the ninth version of the political typology<\/a>; the first was conducted nearly 40 years ago<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How did we do this?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We surveyed 10,357 U.S. adults from Nov. 17 to 30, 2025. Everyone who took part in this survey is a member of the Center\u2019s American Trends Panel. The survey represents the views of the full U.S. adult population. We then used a statistical technique called cluster analysis to divide people into nine groups. (For more on the process of dividing people into groups and surveys used for analysis, jump to Appendix B<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the survey questions<\/a> used for this analysis, the detailed responses<\/a> and the survey methodology<\/a>.<\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

No Apologies Right are overwhelmingly supportive of President Donald Trump\u2019s agenda and the Make America Great Again movement. They take very conservative stances across a wide range of issues, and nearly all identify as Republicans or lean toward the party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Apologies Right view the United States as standing above all other countries and are more content than other groups with America \u201cgoing it alone.\u201d <\/strong>They place high importance on maintaining America\u2019s status as a military superpower and are strong backers of the armed forces. At the same time, they largely think other countries do not treat the U.S. fairly, and many say America\u2019s traditional alliances have been a burden to the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They stand out for their deep-seated opposition to diversity, equity and inclusion efforts and their other opinions on race issues. <\/strong>Almost all No Apologies Right strongly supported the Trump administration\u2019s actions to end DEI efforts in the federal government. They are the group most <\/em>likely to say White people face discrimination \u2013 and least<\/em> likely to say Black and Hispanic people do. Most say the legacy of slavery has no impact on the position of Black people in U.S. society today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No Apologies Right want smaller government and less regulation. <\/strong>Nearly all supported the Trump administration\u2019s cuts to federal departments and agencies, and three-quarters say the federal government should provide less assistance to people in need. About eight-in-ten say government regulation of business does more harm than good, the only group in which a clear majority holds this view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
