Part 3/8:
The disapproval rates for congressional Democrats are striking. As reported by Quinnipiac University, a staggering 68% of voters disapprove of the Democrats in Congress, with only 21% expressing approval. These figures are especially worrisome when even within the Democratic base, a plurality of voters—49%—disapprove of their Congressional representatives. Such discontent highlights the urgency for Democrats to recalibrate their approach if they hope to regain the trust of their supporters.
