- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

MODERATORS
The AP Voter Poll confirms that voters are deeply unhappy with Trump, with roughly 6 in 10 saying they disapprove of his job performance. About 70% of voters want Congress to provide more checks and balances on the presidency. And roughly 6 in 10 voters said Trump places a higher priority on his personal interests than the country’s interests.
The AP Voter Poll shows that about half of voters have a “very” or “somewhat” unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party, while about 6 in 10 view the GOP negatively.
That leaves the Democratic Party’s major factions — the progressive left flank and the liberal-to-moderate establishment — parsing Tuesday’s outcomes to claim any advantage in Democrats’ tug-of-war over party identity.
Also they had results that pointed to 39% rated the economy as the most pressing issue along with 32% for Democracy.
Yup, just people who are tired of Trump and Republicans kowtowing but at the same time, ain't no one thinks Democrats or honestly progressives/democratic socialists are effective or good.
I hope the progressives that won can change that and actually do something and make this lasting because people want change and they don't give two shits who provides it.
Maybe we should just have voters vote on issues and not which side or personality. It sure seems like if you remove the party crap, most people want the same things. And for MAGA, we don't have to tell them that other people are getting things too, just them. Remove the racism drive to make them vote against themselves.
They out here losing bigly
