You can’t act and talk like the cock of the walk when your party’s approval rating is absolute trash. The Democratic Party is perpetually stuck in a 2008 mindset and engulfed in nostalgia, back when they knew how to win elections and, most importantly, could reach a wide range of voters. That ability has completely atrophied, with the Democrats’ brand severely damaged due to their defending the indefensible across an array of public policy issues. The party has reached historic lows, and they don’t have an answer.

Some, like Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT), think the Democrats’ approval rating, which has sunk below 30 percent, is due to them not fighting Donald Trump hard enough.

Murphy: The American people just want us to fight Donald Trump harder — because if we don’t, we’ll lose our Democracy.

When asked about whether Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) would face a primary challenge die to his caving on the spending bill, Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) refused to answer, saying that’s four years away—we might have elections by then.

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), leader of House Democrats, is still trotting old talking points about inflation, claiming they’ve gone up. No, sir—you must be quicker to do this job.
🚨Hakeem Jeffries claims Democrats “have Republicans on the run” — says “inflation is going up."

Inflation is, in fact, going down.
Does Hakeem do anything but lie? pic.twitter.com/8KusCtpEtQ
If anything, this week showed a Democratic Party that has no message, no leader, and doesn’t exactly have a reason to exist other than lie about Donald Trump. The disunity among Democrats was explicit this week, with House Democrats urging all-out rebellion against Schumer. Jeffries was frustrated that his cheap production of a unified Democratic Party shattered to dust.
You can’t talk and act like you’re more popular than Trump when everyone hates you, guys. It’s just that simple. No one wants to be a Democrat, the Bud Lights of politics.
NBC News poll: Just 7 percent of Americans have a very favorable opinion of the Democratic Party... the lowest number ever recorded

Democrats had hit bottom, many said. They hadn’t. The Dems’ favorability has hit a new record low of 29%. The Party is trapped between a base that wants trans sports, open borders, DEI, ESG, Ukraine war, and mass censorship, and swing voters who really, really don’t. https://t.co/fhp2awRHjK pic.twitter.com/0GpgwMErBU
