. . . "Only about a third of Democrats like political leaders who identify as democratic socialists. But the climate is right for Democrats to lose their party to the fringe.
"Voters are already revolting against the establishment, and the success of these candidates could reshape the party entirely and propel an outsider to the White House."
Many Democrats are still down on the Democratic Party, a new AP-NORC poll finds | The Associated Press . . . "Only about 7 in 10 Democrats have a positive view of the Democratic Party, according to new polling from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. While the overwhelming majority of Democrats still feel good about their party, they’re much less positive than they’ve been in the past.
"The midterm elections are still many months away, and lackluster favorability doesn’t spell electoral doom. Other factors could benefit Democrats this year, including broadly negative views of Trump and other Republicans. Additionally, recent polling has found that independents tend to identify more with the party that’s out of power, which could boost Democrats this year too. Historically, the party not in the White House has picked up seats in Congress in midterm elections.
"But the lack of enthusiasm could be a longer-term problem for the party. Democrats’ favorability of their party plummeted after the 2024 election, from 85% in September 2024 to 67% in October 2025. And despite overwhelming victories in November’s off-season elections and a string of wins since then, those views haven’t recovered. Other polling indicates that Democrats are deeply frustrated with their party.
"At the same time, there’s some potential good news for Democrats in the new poll." . . .
Now We Have Proof the Democrats' Anti-Trump Lawfare Was Never About the Law . . . "California alone has burned through $19 million in taxpayer money on this litigation crusade, with another $25 million already authorized. New Jersey tucked $1 million into its fiscal year 2026 budget just to fund two new staff positions dedicated to the coalition's work. That’s right, taxpayers are literally footing the bill for a legal ambush that was planned before Trump even won the election. Imagine all the other things California could have wasted more money on. Democrats can claim all they want that this is about accountability and the rule of law, but it’s just blanket resistance.
?And if you live in a blue state, you’re paying for it." . . .
