A new NBC News poll finds that even after years of relentless political controversy and media hostility, President Donald Trump is viewed more favorably than several of the Democrats’ most prominent figures, and even the Democrat Party itself.

The numbers are likely to alarm Democrat strategists. According to the survey, Trump’s favorability rating now exceeds that of both former Vice President Kamala Harris and California Gov. Gavin Newsom. Even the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE), which has long been the target of progressive activism and calls to be abolished — is viewed more positively than the Democratic Party.

This doesn’t mean Trump is universally popular. The same NBC survey found voters divided on many of his policies, with majorities opposing some administration actions such as early military strikes in Iran and aggressive immigration raids. But the larger story emerging from the polling is something different: a deep collapse in public confidence in the Democrats’ leadership and brand.
