Dems going after a mythical voting block of centerists is one of the biggest reasons we are in this mess. Nobody values centerism, they value policy. The policies that are popular make the 'centerist' Dems squeemish so they throw in with the fascists that don't challenge their power.

CNN is state Run Media. Any and all information they claim as truth and factual shall be considered Alt Facts. Do your own research, and you'll see the propaganda. CNN is state Run Media. CNN is state Run Media. CNN is state Run Media. CNN is state Run Media. CNN is state Run Media.

The statement is true but the headline is intentionally missleading. They are loosing faith in the dems because the establishment of the party is doing nothing and acting like this is business as usual. While actively ignoring people like Berny, AOC and Waltz who are drawing record crowds

The only way to win the hearts of the people of this country is to go full left instead of keep moving to the right. A side benefit of that is that, by going to the left and showing that it wins votes, we will move the GOP leftwards as well, back to the right instead of the extreme right.

democrats need to take a hard look at neoliberal policies and how they pivoted away from the working class to wealthy donors while throwing scraps to the peasants and ignoring rural voters. They count on aoc, sanders to bring energy, then stifle their ideas in favor of corporate donors

Well, I hope they have a plan. Right now, they have two choices, violence or doing the work to improve the party they hate so much. Nazi salutes and illegal deportations, before the first 100 days, don't bode well for people who throw their hands up because everything isn't perfect.

It is the central issue right now. I didn't make it the central issue. Democrats did by running and losing on it. I'm just explaining why. You have heard the story about the boy who cried wolf, right? What happened when everybody thought he was lying again? Spoiler: No one came when he needed help.

The Democratic Party needs to get behind and support people like Bernie, Warren, Murphy and AOC. They need to fight without decorum. They need one agenda. Decreasing the cost of living while increasing wages.

I share the frustration, and yet part of the problem is also that Democrats don’t want to stick their necks out for voters who keep acting like there are no differences between the parties and only grudgingly support them over the guys literally trying to get them killed.

Emphatically, it doesn't matter. If some mean words online from a tiny subset of voters means they hose everyone on earth, then they shouldn't be in politics. They only pull this crybully bullshit when they're being asked to do something humane.

Who told you that? Cable news? Some of my Republican family voted for Harris this time. Vets of WW2 and Civil Rights movement have warned citizens about Trump since 2015. Elon bought this election. My vote wasn't counted. Democrats never asked for a recount. We have to fight for our rights back.

They ARE bad. It’s not saying that the republicans aren’t worse, but as an opposition party they are being woefully inadequate right now. The 10 Dems that voted for the Republican gov funding bill didn’t get any concessions from them and gave their votes away for free

This is allowing the media to divide the Democratic Party. CNN is in Trump‘s pocket. Democrats need not worry about winning the battles, worry about winning the war. This is what happens when voters give one party controls all three branches of government!

The Dem leadership may change and rightfully so. Doesn't mean the party is dead, just means the constituents want more from the leadership. Especially the Senate leadership. No one listens to CNN anymore anyway.

I’m supporting the leaders I want to see and lots of people are looking at AOC, Pete, Crockett, Burnie and other people with spines. But we are mad because there is too much silence everywhere else.

Apparently @cnn.com has done their polling in Florida & Texas. While the Dems need to primary out some of the leadership that’s a little long in the tooth, the base of their platform is still far better than anything MAGAs have to offer. That being said, REFORM of our system is the only way forward

The GOP CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE should be unacceptable to any thinking American who is loyal to the republic. Total loyalty to THE BOSS is how MOBSTERS operate!

24 hour a day bashing by fox entertainment and right wing media and Trump’s radical left repetition doesn’t help. Democrats messaging is not currently effective. Anti Trump is not enough. Stop letting Trump and the Republicans bullying you. Turn your back and give us a reason to vote for democrats.

Despite not liking all the decisions made by the Dem party, we must all band together against this maga group and everything they stand for. If we don’t, we will not have a country that we recognize.

We already have a country we do not recognize. It has been that way, significantly, since 2016. Every single day this year, another right has been taken from us, another chunk of our democracy has been torn away.

If we cannot get Dems to fight for us that means people are going to have to use extralegal means to fight. And when Dems catch some collateral (or reprisal) damage…no one’s gonna miss them.

I can't believe standing around with a thumb up your ass isn't a winning strategy but then again from the same party that dumps their base every election to win over "soft" Republicans it isn't a surprise. So I don't know, more book tours with Cheney's.

I follow many news sources, including several foreign language ones since I lived abroad for over a decade & speak 4 languages. But yeah, ignore me based on who I read, that's the Democrat way. Enjoy being in the minority forever.

Needs a complete makeover.. an overhaul. The party is filled with lame duck old coots and cowards.. who break ranks and vote with republicans over issues of national interest! Never seen the party so cowed and insignificant. It’s embarrassing!! It’s like the leaders and the party is dissolved!

Ineffective, cowardly cucks… this budget vote proved they are too spineless to stand up and be strong. When our Democracy fails, it won’t be Trumps fault - men like him will always exist - it will be the Dems fault for kissing the ring instead of fighting. #fuckdickdurbin #fuckchuckschumer

Oh my goodness this has never happened before. A deficit has never been turned around. And the party was so popular before and the other party is so popular! Doom Doom this is Doom. And the timing of this poll has nothing to do with anything, no sir

For real though, it’s not like it matters. There will not be anymore free or fair elections in the US. Dems have nothing to worry about. It’s not like they could be voted in anyway 🤷🏻‍♀️

We need to establish a people's party, one that actually serves the people. I'm suggesting a new populism movement to appeal to the masses of low, average, and middle-class people but does not include the upper class.

DNC has to earn me again. I have unsubscribed all their texts and emails. I have gotten rid of ActBlue. I cannot waste time and money just because there is an AOC and a Bernie in the party, while others clang the cymbals for Trump.

Without a plan to oppose the CR — a plan which could have been made weeks before knowing what P25 and GOP intended — the resulting Dem capitulation occurred as expected. Without a plan & daily press conferences, unsuccessful brinkmanship tactics makes all losers in the end. Dems need a plan.

Well, maybe, but it’s not like we’re gonna ever vote for Republicans. Democrats aren’t a cult. We are not afraid to criticize each other. And, by using our critical thinking skills, make the party stronger.

I respectfully disagree. I think that racism/sexism are what put Trump back in power. Do I think Biden should have stuck with his initial idea of being a one-term, “transitional” president? Yes. We should have had a slug it out primary process. But I think Harris ran a decent campaign.

Well, you might "think", but objectively you're wrong. People from all races, creeds and genders voted for trump. They realized them Dems lied about joe and propped up a completely incompetent candidate in Kamala. This was not about racism/sexism. Keep lying to yourself though.

Idk how many times we need to say it. You cannot win off a losing playbook. Retire the existing leadership and start from scratch. If Dem governors were in federal politics - these polls would show increasing totals. DC is just out of touch.

He keeps it simple and focused on economics. The left is focused on rights. Newsflash: The public is more concerned about economics than rights. They have little trust in Democrats because they think Dems care more about trans rights than whether they can pay their bills.

Democrat Party have their own problem of being MAGA too Difference their America Great definition is Clinton years,a era that won’t come back anymore and people won’t accept this too While the leadership keeps on bringing NORMALITY they will condemn everyone along themselves

Progressive are never going to be interested in the democratic party so long as it continues to vote in corporate interests and support genocide. Its a right wing party. Theres nothing progressive abt it

Yes, but the progressives need the moderates and some republicans to win an election. I am pretty sure that Bernie would have won the 2016 election in a head to head with Trump. His style of progressive politics should be examined and emulated… AOC has wisely moved toward the center …

If CNN is so involved in political polls, why not show the world how we feel about the whole political system? I think it would show that neither party is interested in helping the people anymore! They are only interested in totalitarian rule! To get there, they will destroy American lives!!

Why should anyone help? This rating was well earned. With the exception of the few usual suspects (Raskin, Warren, Sanders, Crockett, AOC), the Dems aren’t doing their job. If you only want happy news, maybe watch a children’s program?

Sorry, I don’t trust CNN. Everyone knows Democrats put smart capable presidents in office and actually give a shit about the middle class. Last time I checked democrats never let an immigrant billionaire fired 100,000 people, and reduce the standing of the US world wide. CNN is full of shit!

As it should. They currently have only 1 job. Stand in opposition. That's it. They need to start acting cohesively. Look toward AOC, Crockett, Bernie. Tim Walz gets it. Time for the rest of the caucus to figure it out. I'm talking to you Schumer

At a time when faith in government should be at an all-time-high, we get the failure of a major party to maneuver the quagmire with deft and plumb. Instead we get spineless, abject failure. It’s so frustrating to watch.
