The Democratic Party’s image has eroded to its lowest point in more than three decades, according to a new Wall Street Journal poll, with voters seeing Republicans as better at handling most issues that decide elections.

The new survey finds that 63% of voters hold an unfavorable view of the Democratic Party—the highest share in Journal polls dating to 1990 and 30 percentage points higher than the 33% who hold a favorable view.

She was a DA for several different jurisdictions in California for a BIG part of her career before she got onto Biden’s ticket. Her stance on ICE and hardline immigration policy was unsurprising, and the fact that she leaned into consultants urging her to emphasize that is similarly unsurprising. In that regard, she was straight up the wrong candidate.

Oh yeah, it was definitely was unsurprising given her record. But it was still unforgiveable.
