Democrats see their party as ‘weak and ineffective’ in fighting Trump, damning new poll finds
Poll shows just a quarter of Democrats feel positively about their party
- A new poll indicates that over a third of US Democrats consider their party to be “weak” and “ineffective” in its approach to President Donald Trump's administration.
- Only 23 per cent of Democrats expressed positive sentiments about their party, contrasting with 41 per cent of Republicans who held favorable views of theirs.
- The broader public largely views both major parties unfavorably, with many describing them using negative terms and expressing a desire for a third political option.
- The poll's findings serve as a warning for both Democrats and Republicans ahead of upcoming state elections and the 2026 midterms, with Democrats appearing to face more significant voter discontent.
- Trump's approval rating has reportedly fallen to 40 per cent, marking its lowest point since his return to the White House.
