The political landscape is shifting, and not in favor of Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. As the government shutdown drags on, the Democrats face a growing internal revolt, with polling numbers that are nothing short of nightmarish. Even the most loyal Democratic supporters are now urging their leadership to concede.
- New polling reveals President Trump achieving his highest-ever approval rating, defying expectations during the shutdown.
- The Federal Workers Union, traditionally a staunch Democratic ally, is now pressuring Democrats to end the shutdown.
- Prominent media outlets and even left-leaning networks are acknowledging the Democrats' strategy collapse.
Let's delve into the details of this unfolding political drama. Recent polling from the Daily Mail shows President Trump at a staggering 54 percent approval rating, an unprecedented figure for a second term presidency. The Daily Mail, known for its accurate election predictions, reinforces the weight of this poll. Trump’s approval is skyrocketing at a time when Democrats expected a decline, anticipating that the shutdown would damage his popularity as it did in his first term. Instead, the opposite is happening; Trump is gaining support while the Democrats' numbers are plummeting. Greg Price's tweet highlights this unexpected turn.
Adding to the Democrats' woes, the Federal Workers Union, essentially a Democratic super PAC, has turned against them. This union, representing 800,000 federal workers, traditionally supports Democratic candidates, including Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. However, the ongoing shutdown has pushed them to demand an end to it, urging Democrats to surrender. Everett Kelly, the union's president, released a statement demanding a resolution to the shutdown and calling on Democratic leaders to agree to a clean continuing resolution to reopen the government. The Washington Times reported on this public plea from a loyal Democratic ally to accept the Republican proposal, which is not just embarrassing; it signifies a major political collapse. Democrats entered the shutdown expecting to emerge stronger, anticipating Republican fractures. Instead, Trump's polls are surging, and the Republicans remain united. Meanwhile, three Democratic senators have already broken ranks, with more potentially following. AFGE's article discusses the implications of this internal dissent.
Even traditionally left-leaning media outlets like MSNBC and CNBC are highlighting the Democrats' strategic failures. MSNBC recently admitted, subtly, that Schumer's shutdown strategy is collapsing, while CNBC's coverage has embarrassingly exposed the hypocrisy of Democrat Hakeem Jeffries. Gunther Eagleman's tweet captures these moments of journalism that highlight the Democrats' inability to manage a situation they themselves created when they controlled all three branches of government. Eric Daugh's tweet further emphasizes this point.

Before the shutdown, the Washington Post editorial board predicted a disaster for the Democrats, warning them against this reckless endeavor. Other outlets like CNN echoed these sentiments, pointing out that the Democrats set a trap for Trump but fell into it themselves. USA Today has explicitly blamed the Democrats for the shutdown, as history shows that the party making demands usually bears the blame.
The legacy media could only support the Democrats so long before the narrative shifted. As the shutdown continues, public perception increasingly holds the Democrats responsible, especially as they refuse to vote for a clean continuing resolution they have supported in the past. The more this realization spreads, the more pressure mounts on the Democrats to end the shutdown, potentially signaling the end of careers for leaders like Schumer and Jeffries. This political disaster exposes the vulnerabilities within the Democratic front, revealing a party in disarray.
