The Democratic Party’s approval rating among Americans has cratered to a record low, according to a new poll conducted by SSRS in conjunction with CNN.

In total, just 29 percent of respondents indicated that they hold a favorable view of the Democratic Party, a record-low in the surveys 30-year history. CNN’s Manu Raju explained that the poll’s results are even more striking when considering the fact that Democratic Party approval has plunged more than 20 percentage points in just four years, down from a high of 49 percent.

The November presidential elections — in which President Trump swept all seven swing states, out-performed polling averages by roughly four percentage points and became the first Republican to win the popular vote since 2004 — were thought to be a wake-up call for Democratic Party leaders and voters. Exit polls measured widespread dissatisfaction with the party on economic strategy, immigration and the pushing of leftist social ideologies such as transgenderism and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies.

Democrat voters have not yet gotten the message, however, as evidenced by the response’s to CNN’s poll.

A total of 57 percent of Democrat respondents and Democrat-leaning independents want the party to do more to “stand up” to President Trump and thwart his agenda. Just 42 percent of Democrats want to see the party work with Republicans when they can, such as this week’s vote to avert a government shutdown.
