This is a more accurate article to use because it represents America's view of several major institutions.

Ignore the "aggregates" because they're pretty shit to begin with - scroll down to Republicans vs. Independents vs. Democrats.

I find it funny that the Republicans are diametrically opposed when it comes to major institutions.

Police - high among Republicans, but went down as well (because of Republicans finally realizing the police are not your friend, and most likely to how badly police performed because of COVID lockdowns and their refusal to actually get criminals prosecuted)

Medical system - Democrats are TRUST THE SOYENCE, Republicans have remained skeptical the past two years as vaccines work less and less.

Church - Not sure why this went down among Republicans, but atheist Democrats always hated religion.

Organized labor - Self explanatory. Labor unions are corrupt.

Banks - Why did confidence go down with Republicans? Is it cuz of shit like blackrock?

Big tech - Why did this number go up?

Supreme Court - Gone up for Republicans. Democrats butthurt about Roe v Wade.

Presidency - 2% among Republicans... Democrats had an 18 point loss but 51% of those idiots STILL trust him! wtf

Newspapers - Democrats still believe the trash pushed out by NYT.

Criminal justice system - Republicans lost confidence because it's being abused by leftists to attack 1/6 honkers, and Democrats hate it because muh criminal black peypol.

Churches have been trending down among the right as more and more supposedly "Christian" denominations adopt leftist worldviews instead of anything that is actually in the Bible.

Many protestant groups have found themselves with women and troons as church leadership. Naturally, trust in such an institution would trend downwards. Even if professing of religious values does not. On top of that Catholicism is facing a possible schism thanks to the heretic Bergoglio.

All those pastors and the pope decreeing "getting vaccinated is a moral obligation" didn't really help either.

The funniest part is that church doctrine didn't change a bit. The authoritative text on the matter was, and still is the Dignitas Personae. Which states unequivocally that such a treatment is morally impermissible.

Not that that heretic Bergoglio would know or care. But luckily for Catholics everywhere, unless said heretic is speaking Ex Cathedra, anything he says is just his opinion and can be discarded as such.

Church - Not sure why this went down among Republicans

I can think of at least one possible reason.

Banks - Why did confidence go down with Republicans? Is it cuz of shit like blackrock?

Probably didn't help that a bunch of banks rather visibly froze accounts and took money from people at the instruction of the Canadian government during the Convoy protests.

Big tech - Why did this number go up?

Maybe Musk's Twitter (non-)purchase.
