I think this is designed very badly. I think it's easliy interpretable as a poll among Palestinians and Israelis on how they think the US is supporting Democrats, Republicans etc. I know that doesn't make sense (and a survey that would never happen) but it's easy to interpret it that way.

Either I'm stupid or this one is really confusing. How do I read this?

It’s measuring US citizen sentiment in regards to the US state policy towards Israel and Palestine. The first shows support as a whole of the electorate where the subsequent ones break it down by partisan lines. So for example the first bar graph shows 40% of Americans feel the US is too supportive of Israel and 18% think the US is too supportive of Palestine

Thank you I genuinely read this wrong - now I get it.

"40% of US adults say the US is too supportive of the Israelis"

Yeah that makes more sense
