Great news for Jimmy Carter!
Joe Biden is leaving office as the most unpopular Democratic president in modern history. Dark Brandon is also leaving behind a leaderless and rudderless Democratic Party at its lowest point in over 30 years. He also leaves office more unpopular than Trump after January 6.
CNN:
“In the wake of the 2024 election, most supporters of the Democratic Party say it needs to make significant changes and that they feel “burned out” by politics, according to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS. The party faces its lowest ratings in more than 30 years.
Donald Trump’s return to office is also remolding the GOP, with a majority of the party’s backers now saying that support for the president-elect is central to being a Republican.
Those shifts are playing out against a broader backdrop of political unhappiness, with even Republicans far more likely to say they’re disappointed and frustrated by politics than to express optimism, inspiration, or pride. …”
The silver lining for Democrats is that Trump has discredited and destroyed the Democratic establishment, too. The voters weren’t allowed to do it themselves in the primaries.
CNN:
“The Democratic Party has a leadership crisis in 2025.
Don’t take my word for it, we polled the question last week. When asked to name the leader of the Democratic Party, nearly half of all registered voters nationally in our Suffolk University/USA TODAY couldn’t name a person or volunteered “Nobody.”
For the record, here is the list of open-ended responses to the question, listing only responses totaling 1% or more in descending order from the Suffolk University/USA TODAY poll of registered voters taken between Jan. 7 and Jan. 11:
Don’t Know: 30%
Nobody: 19%
(Vice President) Kamala Harris: 10%
(Congressman) Hakeem Jeffries: 9%
(Former President) Barack Obama: 8%
(California Governor) Gavin Newsom: 3%
(Former House Speaker) Nancy Pelosi: 3%
(New York Senator) Chuck Schumer: 3%
(President) Joe Biden: 2%
(New York Congresswoman) Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: 2%
(Investor and philanthropist) George Soros: 1%
(Vermont Senator) Bernie Sanders: 1%
(Transportation Secretary) Pete Buttigieg: 1%
(Pennsylvania Senator) John Fetterman: 1% …”
10% of Democrats think Kamala is their leader.
I’m fairly confident the vast majority of them are black women.
