These numbers are similar to but worse than those for the Republican Party: 62 percent of those polled said they thought Republicans were out of touch, while 32 percent said they were in touch and seven percent had no opinion. President Trump beat out both his own party and the opposition: 58 percent of those polled consider him out of touch, 38 percent describe him as in-touch, and four percent had no opinion.
Trump's numbers are bad, Republican numbers are worse, and Democrat numbers are the worst.
Both the GOP and the corporate establishment democrats beg the super rich for donations in order to serve their interests. Of course they are out of touch. Our representatives spend most of their days calling rich donors for bribe money, not serving the people. Thats why Trump just signed an internet spying bill that had 6% public support. Six percent! The donors steamroll over the American people.
The people who continue to vote for puppets of the special interests are the people who are out of touch with reality.
I dont know about those polls but personally I feel like liberals mean well but they are out of touch with gruesome realities of the troubled third world countries. Their leaders take advantage of the voters' ignorance to push their own agendas. Everyone should do their own research & accept that not all countries are progressing at same rate as the west. Some are actually heading back to the stoneage. Not just the outside world but most liberals in urban cities havent even been to the countryside & make all sorts of judgements about the working class. This was evident in the last elections. They made huge assumptions & still cant figure out why they lost so badly.
This sums up their ignorance: “Let them eat cake.” -Marie Antoinette
Basically its that everyone feels that our government is out of touch. And despite the topic title the data says its almost as bad for Republicans.
I expect that # to be higher within a couple months as its all GOP all the time now. And people in the government don't seem to comprehend. They seem focused on self enrichment instead of service. Trump is the shining beacon of this, but he is far from the only one, and political party is irrelevant to be honest. Its "Greed is good".
Trump's numbers are bad, Republican numbers are worse, and Democrat numbers are the worst.
there is a clear reason why the general pop says that...
1 almost 100% of republicans will 100% of the time reply with a negative answer regards the democrats.
2 Democrats are likely to reply honestly and state th GOP is in touch with it's base (which it is.) and likely to say the Democrats are not in touch with their base... why? well the dem base is very diverse and is looking to change things up. They want the democratic party to stop being prissy and to lie and cheat like the GOP.
