Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin appeared on Fox News and pointed out that President Donald Trump’s poll numbers were “in the toilet” ahead of the midterm elections.
Fox News host Dana Perino ended Martin’s interview on Wednesday by observing that Democrats “had their worst polling ever.”
“And I know, let me just give you 15 seconds to try to say, big picture, how are you going to address that?” she asked.
“Well, we have to do a better job there for sure,” Martin replied. “But remember, Dana, that the ’26 elections and ’25 elections will be a referendum on Donald Trump. And his numbers are actually in the toilet right now.”
“He’s sitting at 37% approval rating,” he continued. “He’s one of the most unpopular politicians, our presidents, in recent memory.”
“And so listen, if I was a Republican Party right now, I would be worried, too, which is why they’re trying to cheat and steal these elections in Texas.”
