New poll delivers troubling signs for Democrats
The Hill ^ | 07/11/25 | Amie Parnes

The Democratic Party’s credibility with voters has plummeted even further since the 2024 election, raising alarm bells as the party looks to rebuild ahead of the midterms and the next presidential election, according to a poll obtained by The Hill.

The poll, conducted between May and June by Unite the Country, a Democratic super PAC, showed voters perceived the Democratic Party as “out of touch,” “woke” and “weak.”

The party has seen its support erode with white men, Hispanic men and working-class voters across the board, with approval ratings sitting below 35 percent across those demographics. And enthusiasm within the party continues to wane in the wake of 2024, the poll revealed.

“This is the reality of the perception of us as a party, and until we accept that, it’s going to be hard to move forward,” said Democratic strategist Rodell Mollineau, who serves as senior adviser to the super PAC. “There’s a perception out there, outside of Democratic elites, and it’s taken hold in not just the MAGA crowd but people that should be with us.”

“Democrats need to realize that in order to improve and get better to not only win in 2028 but to win in 2030 and 2032 and beyond,” Mollineau added.

Democrats have been searching for a way out of the wilderness since their devastating loss in November, when they not only lost the presidency once again to President Trump but also the House and Senate.

Since then, party officials have conducted a number of postmortems — including polls, focus groups and strategy sessions — as part of the party’s rebuilding effort.

But Democrats are still feeling dejected and rudderless in the early months of the Trump presidency.

The Rat Party is now controlled by AOC, Jasmine Crockett and their ilk. The Rats are finished unless the GOP does something really stupid which they are fully capable of doing.

You are assuming it is a judge. Could be attorney-client privilege, joint defense agreement, or confidentiality agreement.

The DemoRATS can’t get away from this one thing. Their party leadership allowed hordes of ILLEGALS to flood our country for 4 years. This took away taxpayer money from hard working Americans of all ethnic groups and wasted it on the invading hordes.

I will never forgive the bastards for that!

I’m kinda thinking that choosing the illegal alien hill to die on may not have been the best choice.

“The Epstein Conspiracy wing of the Republican Party will give the Democrats a boost.”

but not THAT big of a boost though, because the “epstein conspiracy” is a fabrication of the corporate propaganda trump-hating media [”the walls are closing in”] and a gaggle of hair-on-fire, pearl-clutching FReepers who seize on any picayune tempest-in-a-teapot to discredit MAGA ...

I think he knew neither Kamala nor or Tim would let Obama control them. He has lost any clout. Obama is a loser joke.

The Democrats are rudderless and being dashed to pieces between rocks and a hard place, while in the mean time, a gaggle of hair-on-fire, pearl-clutching FReepers are seizing on any picayune epstein tempest-in-a-teapot to discredit MAGA ...

I love Trump 2.0
I care more about illegal immigration than the fact that the Epstein fairytale ended up like Q.

And yet many Freepers are saying Trump and the GOP are finished because of the Epstein situation. Aren’t they saying that?

Out in the wild, the GOP establishment loathes the MAGA barbarians

On Free Republic, it would be more surprising to learn there is ZERO resentment of MAGA — than to find out there is SIGNIFICANT resentment of MAGA here.

Epstein is actually very relevant. It has been very poorly handled by AG Bondi (no one believes there is no client list). The fun is where the further evidence of a two tier justice system falls out in the electorate? Will it be evidence of Republican malfeasance/incompetence like the MSM would like, or will it be yet another example of the deep state protecting its own, and the Dems are the party of the deep state?
