Democrats face internal strife as approval ratings plummet
—
WASHINGTON (TNND) — Across the nation, Democrats are expressing frustration with both external and internal political figures. Anger is directed at President Trump and Elon Musk for their actions against the courts and job cuts, but many within the Democratic Party are also pointing fingers at their own leaders.
Criticism is mounting against Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for his decision to support a Republican funding bill that many Democrats opposed. The bill’s failure, however, would have led to a government shutdown.
