Democrats historically unfavourable
The latest CNN/SRSS poll has the Democrats historically unfavourable.

That is an awful trend. So in Bush’s second term, they were very popular. Then they fell away in Obama’s first term, rebounded, but then went negative. But they were marginally favourable in Trump’s term, however the Biden administration was a disaster for them going from +5% to -25% today. And they are showing no signs of rebounding.
The breakdown by demographics are:
- Men -32%
- Women -18%
- Whites -37%
- People of colour -5%
- Under 34s -14%
- 35 – 49 -21%
- 50 – 64 -38%
- 65+ -28%
- Independents -34%
- Moderates -14%
J D Vance will be feeling pretty confident right now.
