Some 91 percent of Donald Trump's supporters believe their "beliefs and values are under attack" in modern America, finds a new Quinnipiac poll released Tuesday. Some more stats from that poll:
- 90 percent of Trump voters believe "public officials don't care what people like me think"
- 85 percent say "America has lost its identity"
- 84 percent agree that "what we need is a leader who is willing to say or do anything to solve America's problems"
- 80 percent say "the government has gone too far in assisting minority groups"
- 78 percent report they're "falling further and further behind economically"
"Trump supporters are true stand-outs," notes Quinnipiac University Poll Director Douglas Schwartz. "They want a leader who is very different from the leader sought by other voters, explaining the mystery many see behind Trump's support."
