This is not an outlier, or right/left positioning. The USA have lost trust across the entire German population on an unprecedented scale. This will likely have a long-term and possible even immediate effect on the decision-making processes within German politics.
The poll was conducted between January 16 and 19, 2026, with 1009 participants involved, margin of error ±3%.
