Congressional Democrats have a problem. A big one. The American people are not impressed, and the latest polling proves it. Despite years of shouting about “democracy” and positioning themselves as the righteous defenders of all that is good, their approval ratings have cratered. Turns out, running on endless outrage, manufactured crises, and bizarre social agendas doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. Who knew?
Approval for Congressional Democrats has plummeted to historic lows, with a majority of Americans now openly disapproving of their performance. In other words, the public has seen enough, and they don’t like what they see.
Why Are Americans So Fed Up?
For starters, Democrats don’t seem to have a single actual accomplishment to show for their time in power. When they had full control of Congress, they spent more time investigating Trump than actually fixing anything. Inflation skyrocketed, crime spiked, the border was overrun, and Americans were told to just accept it.
Now that Republicans hold the House, the American people expected Democrats to at least pretend to work on bipartisan solutions. Instead, they’ve doubled down on resistance politics, obsessing over stopping Trump at all costs while ignoring the very real issues Americans face every day.
The economy? They’d rather talk about climate mandates and diversity quotas than lower gas prices or cut taxes.
Crime? They say it’s a right-wing talking point—as if people aren’t watching their own cities deteriorate in real-time.
The border? Democrats act as if securing it is somehow “fascist,” even as millions flood into the country and sanctuary cities start complaining.
It’s one disaster after another, and Americans are sick of it.
Even Their Own Voters Are Losing Patience
Here’s the real kicker: it’s not just Republicans and Independents who are unhappy—Democrats themselves are starting to lose faith in their party’s ability to function.
For years, the left’s game plan has been simple: rile up the base with anti-Trump hysteria and ride the wave. But now? Even some die-hard Democrats are starting to ask questions.
Why? Because they expected results. They wanted Trump stopped, but they also wanted policies that made sense. Instead, all they got was more partisan nonsense, zero accountability, and policies that don’t work.
A growing number of Democratic voters say their party is not doing enough to oppose Trump, believing that their leadership has been too weak. Others, especially Independents, think the opposite—that the party is too focused on endless political stunts instead of real governance.
In other words, nobody is happy.
Meanwhile, Trump Is Gaining Ground
While Democrats struggle to maintain support within their own party, Trump’s approval rating is on the rise.
Yes, that Trump. The one they’ve spent nearly a decade trying to take down.
Despite relentless attacks from the media, endless lawsuits, and Democrats throwing everything they have at him, his numbers are climbing. The more Democrats fail, the better he looks in comparison.
Why? Because whether you like him or not, Trump actually delivers.
Democrats have no answer for this, except to scream even louder about how dangerous he is. But at this point, their credibility is gone. They called him a threat to democracy before he even took office in 2016—so why should anyone take them seriously now?
Democrats Are Out of Touch, Out of Ideas, and Running Out of Time
Here’s the bottom line: Democrats are losing because they don’t understand the country they claim to represent.
They live in an elite bubble, where their biggest concerns are pronouns, climate virtue-signaling, and silencing “misinformation.” Meanwhile, working Americans are trying to pay their bills, keep their families safe, and find leaders who actually care about their struggles.
It’s not complicated. People want strong leadership, real solutions, and accountability.
Instead, they get performative outrage, phony investigations, and ridiculous social experiments masquerading as policy.
The result? Americans are checking out.
Congressional Democrats are at rock bottom, and unless they wake up fast, 2026 will be a bloodbath. Because if they think voters are frustrated now, just wait until they see what happens when Trump is back in the White House—and Republicans have both chambers of Congress.
They won’t just be unpopular. They’ll be irrelevant.
