The issue:
The Democratic Party is leaderless and more unpopular than ever, with only 33 percent of Americans holding a favorable view of it. This represents the party's lowest rating since 1992, as Republicans continue to outregister Democrats in crucial swing states.
What they recommend:
No recommendations provided in the commentary.
Go deeper:
The Democratic Party must recognize that dismissing popular aspects of Trump's policies will hinder their recovery. Experts suggest that acknowledging voters’ priorities, such as border security and energy abundance, can help Democrats regain ground lost in recent elections. The need for moderation on contentious issues, including immigration and DEI, can create opportunities for compromise and connection with a broader electorate.
