Former CNN political analyst Chris Cillizza warned Wednesday that Democrats’ intense hatred for President Donald Trump is crippling their odds of reclaiming government control.

Republicans secured unified control of the federal government in November, with Trump reclaiming the White House, the GOP flipping the Senate and maintaining their House majority. Cillizza, on “On Balance,” argued that Democrats’ hostility toward Trump is leading them to adopt disastrous political strategies.

WATCH:

“They just have a blind spot with Trump. No idea he proposes can even be a good idea,” Cillizza said. “Again, if it was proposed by James P. Public, Republican president, they’d be like, ‘Okay, well, maybe.’ But because it is him, and because the loathing is so — I use that word advisedly — but they hate him, every idea is a bad idea.”

“And I just think it leads to some poor strategic conclusions if your goal is — as Democrats’ goal should be — getting some power back, because they’re out of power at every single level at the state and federal government,” he continued.

NewsNation host Chris Cuomo made a similar point Wednesday, arguing that Democrats’ blanket condemnation of Trump and Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) head Elon Musk shows they haven’t “learned” from their 2024 election defeats.

“It seems like anything that Trump or Musk does, they have to condemn, and they have to condemn it on the basis of the people personally. Trump is a Nazi. Musk has apartheid roots … They’re just defending the establishment,” Cuomo said. “And I don’t think that’s where you want to be right now. You want to be in the business of better, and they seem like they’re still in the business of painting the other side as worse.”

Democrats are split on how to oppose the Trump administration, but some, like Democratic Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy, are advocating for unified resistance to the president’s entire agenda.

“We need to act like a real opposition party in the middle of a constitutional and democracy crisis,” Murphy said on MSNBC on Feb. 5. “That means we should not be moving forward nominees or legislation in the United States Senate.”

However, Democratic California Rep. Ro Khanna said on Wednesday that his party must not “offer the same old status quo,” adding that a comeback will require “a vision recognizing that a lot has gone wrong for working and middle class Americans and … a positive vision about what we’re going to do for their economic success and their communities’ economic success.”

The Democratic Party’s approval rating plunged to nearly an all-time low of 31% among registered voters, according to Quinnipiac University polling published on Jan. 29.
