As seen in the Wall St Journal the Democratic Party has its lowest approval rating since 1990 - and Republicans are favored in the issues that most impact elections. Via NY Post.
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%.
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.
In one unique finding, respondents disapproved of Trump’s tariffs by 17 points and Republicans still scored 7 points higher than Democrats on that issue.
“The Democratic brand is so bad that they don’t have the credibility to be a critic of Trump or the Republican Party,” John Anzalone, a Democratic pollster who helped conduct the survey, told the outlet.
“Until they reconnect with real voters and working people on who they’re for and what their economic message is, they’re going to have problems.”
Anzalone teamed up with Republican Tony Fabrizio, Trump’s trusted pollster during the 2024 campaign cycle, to conduct the survey for the Wall Street Journal.
Republicans’ approval rating clocked in at a net seven points unfavorable.
