Poll after poll shows a bleak outlook for the Republican Party. As I wrote in my newsletter:
They don’t care about affordability. They don’t care about working Americans. They only care about doing what Trump tells them to do.
And we see the result:
The Atlas poll, rated A-plus, shows double-digit losses for Republicans on the generic ballot.
The New York Times/Siena poll — which usually trends more Republican than most — now has Democrats up 11 points on the generic ballot, 50 to 39.
Trump’s approval has hit a second-term low: 37%. Sixty-four percent of Americans say the Iran war was the wrong decision.
