Republicans smirking at how Democrats have lost touch with most voters’ values should think again — because having a sizeable minority of the population at odds with the rest is bad for the entire country.
Per Gallup’s polling, the share of Democrats who say they’re “very proud to be an American” fell from 90% to just 36% over the last quarter-century — and those are likely the Dems most at-odds with their party’s direction.
Consider the findings from center-left outfit Welcome’s survey: 70% of Americans now say Democrats are out-of-touch, up from 51% in 2013; only 39% of voters think the Democratic Party has the right priorities, while 59% say they don’t.
Decades of colleges pushing leftism has produced a Democratic elite that thinks our country’s a force for ill in the world and built on oppression, that sees everything through a “woke” racialist lens, that buys into the rank lunacy that demands trans surgery for minors.
They’ve wrecked the party’s brand, yet a brain-dead establishment refuses to push back against a base that wants more of it.
Indeed, Senate Democrats have united behind Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to filibuster the temporary federal funding bill — shutting down the government for over a month now to please the elites in the party’s base at the expense of the more humble Dems who rely on federal programs and federal jobs.
Welcome’s study warns that if Democrats want to win elections, they must focus on the beliefs, needs and wants of regular people, like “the economy, the cost of living, health care, border security, public safety” and less on issues voters don’t prioritize, such as “climate change, democracy, abortion, and identity and cultural issues” and fighting President Donald Trump at every turn.
Of course, Schumer and other top Dems who know this is true are stuck, dependent on a far-left donor base and fearful that the hard left will unseat them in primaries if they moderate to connect with independent centrist voters.
In areas where Democrats dominate — California, Illinois, New York — this is translating to lunatic policies that let crime and other social ills run rampant while slamming local economies and driving middle- and working-class class voters to flee; cities like Los Angeles, Chicago and (soon, if Zohran Mamdani wins) New York get the very worst of it.
Republicans may think this will make it easier for them to win national elections, and perhaps even gain huge majorities in Congress — but it will come at the price of immiserating our once-greatest cities, and with ever-deeper and more destabilizing divisions.
How can the nation prosper when perhaps a third of its citizens think the country is evil?
America desperately needs Democrats to start coming to their senses, but how many elections will they have to lose before reality sinks in?
