A focus group of voters showed Independents were disapproving of the Democratic Party's antics of opposition to President Donald Trump.
Independent viewers in the focus group responded negatively to a protest earlier this month led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., against Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The focus group consisted of 75 Democrats, 49 independents and 32 Republicans, and was represented by blue, yellow and red lines, respectively.
In the video, Schumer led chants of "we will win" and "we won't rest."
During Schumer’s chants, the dials showed unfavorable reactions from the independents and Republicans.
"Cringe," Lee Carter, pollster and president of Maslansky + Partners, told Fox News Digital of the Schumer video. "Nothing says ‘we want to help’ like a gaggle of 70-year-olds waving canes and shouting inanities. You'd think public figures would have more self-awareness and a desire to behave in a professional manner."
Another video, also viewed by the focus group, showed a Tuesday rally put on by the American Federation of Government Employees, also in protest of Trump and Musk.
"Which side are you on," the group sang, their specific rendition of 'Which Side Are You On?’ often sung during World War II. "Trump's coming for our unions. He wants us all to fail, and he wants us to bow to him. But we want him in jail. Which side are you on."
When the crowd sang the protest ballad, both the yellow line monitoring the independent reaction and the red line monitoring the Republican reaction dipped very low, while the blue line representing the Democrats remained steady.

I’ve been saying this for years. Democrats need to leave their party. Even Fleas are smart enough to jump off a dying dog.
I’ve been saying this for years. Democrats need to leave their party. Even Fleas are smart enough to jump off a dying dog.
Trump has built a temporary coalition of voters. How many election cycles it will hold remains to be seen. But eventually it will split into two. The question is, when the split happens, do they go to the Democratic Party, or will their be a new party, and the Democrats will be left to whither on the vine.
At this point, the Democrats don’t care what anyone thinks. Billions and billions of dollars in easy money are threatened and they are livid! There is no reasoning with them.
They no longer control the real media so these tactics are not working.
Even John Fetterman can see the Democrats imploding. They are so stuck on stupid it is now fatal.
...ideologues don’t really change, they just die off and are replaced by a new ideology.
I’ll take Democrats will be left to whither on the vine for $5 Alex.
3 Democrats Senators are not running in 26.
Republicans will keep the Senate.
Not enough funds for Democrats to compete.
