An astounding 85% of Americans said that the country was headed in the wrong direction in a recent survey.
The AP-NORC survey found that only 14% of Americans said that the country was headed in the right direction, a dire result for Democrats hoping to hold on to congressional power in the midterm elections.
The percentage of Americans optimistic about the country's direction has steadily collapsed from 29% in April to 21% in May and to 14% in June.
