CNN’s Manu Raju shared a poll on Sunday’s Inside Politics he said shows the “brutal reality” of how negatively Americans view Democrats, with the favorable/unfavorable rating at its lowest point since the network began tracking the metric some 30 years ago.

Raju opened Sunday’s show with a full breakdown of a CNN/SSRS survey, reporting that it found only 29% of those polled viewed Democrats in a favorable light.

Fifty-four percent of those surveyed told CNN they viewed the Democratic Party unfavorably — something Raju called “staggering.”

While Democrats found themselves historically upside down in the survey, the Republican Party fared better, but not by much, coming in at just 36% favorable, and 48% saying they view the party unfavorably.

“Americans’ favorable views of the Democratic Party’s brand are at a record low, just 29%,” Raju reported. “It is the lowest ever recorded for Democrats in CNN polling, going back more than 30 years.”

First up this morning, a brand-new, exclusive CNN poll that paints a brutal reality for Democrats as they struggle to mount a unified opposition to President Trump. Americans’ favorable views of the Democratic Party’s brand are at a record low, just 29%. That’s compared to 36% for Republicans.

It is the lowest ever recorded for Democrats in CNN polling, going back more than 30 years. As you can see, the party’s number is dropping a staggering 20 points in just four years.

The CNN/SRS poll also found 57% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters are more interested in seeing their party leaders stop the GOP agenda, compared to 42% who are more interested in cutting bipartisan deals.

It is a big shift from where the party stood at the start of Trump’s first term in 2017.

The CNN/SSRS poll was conducted from March 6 to March 9. The survey reported a margin of error at +/- 5.4 percentage points.
