Democrats get all time low in polling
The results from the latest Quinnipiac poll are in, and congressional Democrats are taking it on the chin, while Republicans are enjoying all-time highs.
The results come after a tumultuous political period as President Donald Trump tackles immigration, the Ukraine war, and cutting the budget through the Department of Government Efficiency. Democrats have responded with bilious criticism and numerous challenges in court.
The poll found that only 21% of voters said that they approved of the job that Democrats are doing in Congress, an all-time low, while 40% of voters said they approved of the job Republicans are doing in Congress, an all-time high. The poll first started asking the question in 2009.
"It's a sobering slap-down of historic proportions for the Democrats in Congress. Their Republican counterparts take a victory lap as the Democrats try to get their footing," said Quinnipiac University polling analyst Tim Malloy.
Trump's favorability rating suffered a slight drop to 45% from 46% in January, although his disapproval rating spiked from 43% to 49% in the same time frame. The president got high marks from voters on immigration, the economy, and foreign policy but was under water on the Ukraine war and on policy related to Israel and the Gaza Strip.

No one is getting a majority of support, but the Democrats are more underwater with voters. It is my opinion that Russia made a mistake with its attack on Ukraine that has exposed the weakness of the Russian military. The Russians have also experienced significant casualties and have little to show for their efforts. The Democrats lack a charismatic leader at this time. While Trump is doing much better he still has a way to go to get majority support.
