from Real Patriotism · host Collective Media

"The promise of the American Dream… is gone, and I don't like anybody." — Trump is now more unpopular than any president at this point in his term in the history of polling. But Democrats aren't popular either. Working-class voters described Dems as "woke, weak, and out-of-touch" in a study spearheaded by former New Orleans mayor and Biden official, Mitch Landrieu. Workers say both parties have failed them. Landrieu says it's time for Dem to deliver and earn back their role as the Party of the Working Class. #democracy #trump #uspolitics #democrats #midterms2026 #2026election ——— Subscribe to my newsletter for more analysis, context and reporting: ➔ https://terrymoran.substack.com/ Every Episode of Real Patriotism with Terry Moran: ➔ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtNGxtNFPwQFBEsxcLjir_h8elD30OuV- Stay connected with Terry Moran: ➔ Substack: https://terrymoran.substack.com/ ➔ X (Twitter): https://x.com/TerryMoran ➔ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/terrymoranjournalist/ Partnership & Sponsorship Inquiries: ➔ [email protected] Real Patriotism is veteran news journalist Terry Moran's home for clear-eyed reporting on American democracy and power in our time.
