The Republican Party has a new bogeyman: cancel culture.

One of former President Donald Trump s lawyers described his second impeachment trial as constitutional cancel culture. Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), a leading voice among the most conservative members of the House, told a Fox News audience that fighting cancel culture is the number one issue for the country to address today. The theme of this years Conservative Political Action Conference? America Uncanceled.

A newly released HuffPost/YouGov poll , however, found only about half of Americans are even aware of the free speech-defeating monster lurking under the bed, though two-thirds of those who are aware are concerned about the threat.

The poll, conducted in late January, found that 52% of Americans had heard of the term cancel culture, a number thats virtually unchanged since last fall . Only 22% of those whove heard the term roughly a tenth of the public say theyve ever used it themselves. Among those who are familiar with the term, 67% say it is a very or somewhat serious problem.
