The Chicago Council’s poll shows other two interesting points. One is that support for Taiwan’s defense (not necessarily it’s independence) is pretty equal among identified Republicans, Democrats, and Others. Taiwan is perhaps the one issue that’s truly achieved a bi-partisan consensus in current American politics. The other is that support for a military intervention is about less than half of the respondents. Like the above, this support cuts equally among Rs, Ds, and Others.
One trend I also see from the data is that R support for armed intervention declined sharply once Biden entered the White House. I don’t think this is specific to Taiwan, but rather to issues with the US military being poorly run.
