New Poll Shows Voters Are Tired of the Anti-Trump ‘Resistance’ – Even in Blue California
From the moment Trump won the 2024 election, Democrats have done nothing but try to stand in his way. They think it’s still 2016 and they have no new ideas.
One new poll shows that voters are not buying the Dems’ old act anymore. Even in blue California.
Leaders are supposed to offer solutions and find compromises that get things done. Democrats offer nothing but outrage and protests and people are sick of it.
From Politico:
California voters have Trump-resistance fatigue, poll finds
California voters are less keen on fighting Donald Trump than their state’s political elite.
In a dual survey of California voters and political professionals who are driving the state’s agenda, the electorate is strikingly more likely to want a detente with the White House. Voters are also more divided on issues like immigration and climate change, where Gov. Gavin Newsom and Democratic state lawmakers have asserted progressive ambitions that rebuff the president’s agenda.
A plurality of voters is skeptical of legal immigration, and less than half think the state should be able to set its own strict standards on vehicle emissions, an authority California has used for more than half a century.
The results suggest a disconnect between the policymaking class and voters in an overwhelmingly blue state where Trump made broad inroads in 2024 amid widespread frustrations over crime and a prohibitively high cost of living. Registered Democrats, however — who comprise nearly half the electorate — are more enthusiastic about progressive policies and more eager to challenge Trump’s Washington.
Ed Morrissey of Hot Air offered an explanation for this:
This might reflect the recognition by voters — even in deep-blue California — of the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of La Résistance in either iteration. The first time around, Democrats launched their “resistance” on the false claim that Trump won office illegitimately through “Russia collusion.” Voters eventually discovered that was a lie, and those who paid attention now know that the lie came from Hillary Clinton’s dirty-tricks team and Barack Obama’s FBI.
This time around, there’s no question at all about legitimacy. Trump stomped Harris in the election and won both the popular vote and the Electoral College, the first GOP candidate to do so in 20 years.
Democrats are already enjoying a historically low approval rating. If they want it to sink even further, they should just keep doing what they’re doing.
