Friend, here are five reasons why Democrats should be hopeful heading into this year:
1. Trump is unpopular. Really unpopular. More than half of Americans disapprove of the job he's doing. (Evidence.)
2. On the issues that matter to swing voters, like immigration, the economy, and inflation, they hate the job that Trump is doing. (Evidence.)
3. Democrats are winning, and winning big in Special Elections. A recent analysis showed that Democrats were overperforming by 15.4% this year. (Evidence.)
4. The president's party almost always loses a lot of seats in the midterms. The last time that didn't happen was, well, 2002. (Evidence.)
5. We're starting to see folks show some backbone. That's why we launched our Fight Back Fund to support Democrats running to flip Republican held seats, especially in places where we have a once in a generation opportunity to win. If you care about this work, you can chip in here >>
