that bad news for Democrats is good news for regular people!
Democrats have waged an all-out war on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) since Trump came back to office. “Abolish ICE” became a rallying cry on the far left. ICE agents were portrayed as villains in campaign ads, Hollywood storylines, and cable news monologues. The narrative was simple: if voters just saw what ICE was doing, they’d turn on the agency and, by extension, on Trump and Republicans.
Instead, the NBC poll shows ICE with a net favorability of -18. That’s still higher than the Democratic Party’s -22. Let that sink in for a moment: after all the hostile coverage, demonization, and organized campaigns to make ICE toxic, the agency is still more popular than the Democratic Party. That has to sting.
And remember, this is after Democrats have “flooded the zone” with wall-to-wall negative coverage of ICE, constant (dishonest) harping on Renee Good and Alex Pretti.
Democrats have already turned the volume up to 11. It just doesn’t go to 12…
