NEW POLL: Dems out of touch
“The Democratic Party’s brand is in rough shape in the congressional battlegrounds.”
Oof.
That’s the lede of a new report in Politico which revealed what we’ve known to be true for some time: The Democrats are very, very out-of-touch with the American people, and their own voters.
Once the “party of the working class,” a majority of voters said Democrats are not looking out for working people, and 35 percent of voters said Democrats primarily benefit the wealthy.
51 percent said “elitist” described the Democratic Party well.
44 percent said they think Democrats respect work, while even fewer — 39 percent — said the party values work.
So naturally, with their brand in the toilet, Democrats are doubling down on their losing strategy of using billionaires to pay protestors, and shutting down the government if they don’t get their way.
