Democrats’ approval rating with registered voters has plunged to a 35-year low, while Republicans maintain an edge on most of the top issues Americans care about, a new poll found.
A whopping 63% of registered voters view Democrats unfavorably, dramatically eclipsing the 33% who had a positive impression, marking the lowest rating they scored since 1990, according to a Wall Street Journal survey.
That abysmal rating for Democrats comes against the backdrop of lackluster figures for President Trump and Republicans. Trump’s approval rating sits at 46%, with 52% who disapprove of the commander in chief. The figure is higher than this point during his first term, which was 40%.
Republicans’ approval rating clocked in at a net seven points unfavorable.
If congressional elections were held today, 46% of voters indicated they’d back a Democrat, compared to 43% who would support a Republican.
A majority, 51%, also said the change Trump is bringing has resulted in dysfunction and chaos, compared to 45% who agreed the president was making positive adjustments.
Still, across the board, voters preferred the GOP approach over the Dem position on a range of key issues.
Voters trusted Republicans over Democrats on inflation by about 10 points; on immigration by 17 points; and handling illegal immigrants by 17 points, the survey found.

That he did!
There’s real truth in it look at the party divide in the Houses of Congress.
It took Perot and Clinton to wake “Republicans” up to the HW Bush reality,
How far did the WSJ fallen? Very far... My disapproval ratings of the WSJ is 100%!!
Do not equate popularity with election performance. The Dems can stink like week-old fish and still win in the days following the election.
The Bolsheviks had maybe 2% support of the Russian Population in 1917. Didn’t stop them. The Nazis were routed in the last “free” election in the Weimar Republic. Didn’t stop them.
Until Donald Trump threw his hat into the ring the voting for either party is like choosing between diarrhea and constipation. If Perot was enough to split the vote then H.W. was probably lousier than most give him credit for. I was too young for Perot, or Dole; my first three presidential elections were W. Bush, McCain, and Romney. All three were trash.
When the 2026 elections come, Democrats will dutifully fall in line and vote (and cheat) for whichever scumbag is running.

And that will once again confirm the power of indoctrination among voters with IQs in the double digits. Pitiful!
WSJ has really sailed into the dumpster in recent years. The Murdock kids must have full control now. The rats were at 19 in other polls last week. So those were off by 14 points? BS.
“””””my first three presidential elections were W. Bush, McCain, and Romney. All three were trash.”””
They were not trash. They were good democrats.
