Considering the carnage inflicted upon the country by the Trump administration over the past four weeks you would think that the GOP would be the most unpopular political party in the country. After all, the polls show that the public is very unhappy with Donald Trump's policies while the Republican elected officials appear to be in a state of suspended animation, unable to exercise their own prerogatives as an equal branch of government even as the president and his henchmen usurp their power while basically laughing in their faces. However, despite the fact that the GOP is extremely unpopular, the prize for most loathed political party at the moment belongs to the Democrats.
The numbers are very bad. According to the Quinnipiac poll, 57% of registered voters have an unfavorable opinion of the Democratic Party. That's the highest it's been since they started asking the question back in 2008. By contrast, only 45% of voters are unhappy with the GOP. The Democrats are at a lukewarm 31% favorability rating.
