Sometimes you just can’t help but laugh. For some time now, the Democratic Party’s been dealing with approval ratings lower than a snake on a submarine and sinking faster than a lead brick in clear water. Their embrace of every possible policy position that at least 80 percent of the country opposes has cost them, and let’s hope they never figure it out.
A new Gallup poll is in, and for Republicans as well as any Americans who aren’t barking nuts (Democrats), it’s giggle-inducing.
Confidence in the Democratic Party’s congressional leadership has sunk to an all-time low, according to a new national poll.
The confidence rating for Democratic leadership in Congress stands at 25% in a Gallup poll conducted April 1-14 and released on Thursday. That’s nine points below the previous low of 34%, which was recorded in 2023.
According to Gallup, confidence in Republican congressional leadership stands at 39%, which is well above the 24% low hit in 2014.
Fueling the drop in confidence in the Democratic congressional leadership were Democrats.
Look at that last line; that, friends, is schadenfreudelicious. If the recent tomfoolery by Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) is any indication, Congressional Democrats seem to be operating on the assumption that the best way to stall the workings of the Trump administration is to punch themselves repeatedly in the face, with predictably bad results. And the national party is doubling down on stupid by making some truly baffling picks for their party leadership.
Let them continue.
Don’t stop them.
Quit telling them they are messing up.
