“Some 69% of Americans say they get excited about space exploration, and about 80% expressed a favorable view of NASA, including large majorities of both Republicans and Democrats, according to a three-day Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted during the Artemis II mission. Likewise, 69% of respondents said it was important to return astronauts to the moon.”
Trump support is currently at 37% and only 69% of people think this is valuable.
A 6% overlap is hardly unifying.
The few Trump supporters I know think the whole thing is fake.
