TREE NEWS reports: A survey released on June 21 by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs found that 57% of Americans believe the US should pursue friendly cooperation and engagement with China, extending a trend of growing public support for engagement since 2024. Republican backing rose 10 percentage points from 2025 to its highest level since 2019, while Democrats also moved toward supporting engagement.

The partisan shift is the notable part: Republican support reaching its highest level since 2019 suggests engagement is no longer a purely partisan position, which matters for how long any hawkish policy consensus can hold. For markets, the signal is about durability of the tone rather than any specific measure. Whether this translates into legislative or trade-policy movement is the open question.
