Democrats got a brutal wake-up call Tuesday from their own internal polling, as Politico’s Elena Schneider laid bare the damage. “The Democratic Party’s brand is in rough shape in the congressional battlegrounds,” she wrote, citing Navigator Research’s survey—conservatives say it’s a sob story of their own making.

The numbers are a dagger. Nearly two months into Trump’s second term, a majority in battleground House districts see Democrats as “more focused on helping other people than people like me,” per the poll. Among independents, just 27 percent think the party fights for them—55 percent say it’s all about “others.”

Pollster Molly Murphy didn’t sugarcoat it. “Voters were somewhat critical of Trump in some spots,” she told Politico, but Democrats have “serious damage to fix with their own brand” before regaining trust. Republicans smirk—Trump’s 82 percent speech approval last week towers over this pity party.

Schneider’s report stings deeper. Only 39 percent of battleground voters believe Democrats have the right priorities—69 percent slam them as “too focused on being politically correct.” Conservatives cheer: the woke train’s derailed, and the DNC’s clutching the wreckage.

Trump’s shadow looms large. His 89 executive orders in 50 days—tariffs, deportations—have voters buzzing, while Democrats flounder. Posts on X call it “a complete collapse”—the party’s lost its soul, and 97 percent GOP approval for Trump’s March 4 address proves who’s winning hearts.

The poll’s timing is salt in the wound. Navigator Research’s data, fresh off Trump’s landslide, shows a party adrift—Schumer and Jeffries flailing with “Street Fighter” stunts while Trump slashes crossings to 300 daily from Biden’s 10,000. Republicans say it’s a sad tale of irrelevance.

Independents are jumping ship—27 percent trust left behind by a party obsessed with “others.” Conservatives argue it’s no shock—open borders, trans agendas, and PC nonsense tanked them. Murphy’s warning rings: fix this, or stay a punchline in Trump’s America.

Battleground voters aren’t mincing words—Democrats prioritize foreigners over citizens. The poll’s a mirror to a party that’s lost the plot, with 61 percent rejecting their focus. Republicans relish it: Trump’s delivering, while Dems drown in their own sanctimonious tears.

Schneider’s scoop isn’t just data—it’s a dirge. Democrats can’t spin this; their brand’s a smoking ruin. Conservatives see a fractured mess—Trump’s tariffs hit Canada with 50 percent steel pain Tuesday, while Dems navel-gaze. Who’s leading now?

America’s done with sob stories. This poll’s a requiem—Democrats’ self-inflicted wounds bleed out as Trump’s 2024 mandate, backed by 97 percent GOP faith, steamrolls ahead. Republicans say it’s clear: the DNC’s chaos is their own sad song, and Trump’s the maestro calling the tune.
