While Democrats and the left-wing media are overplaying the Russia card, the Democrat Party is experiencing branding and messaging problems. Democrats campaigned on an anti-Trump message and continue to go after President Trump by discrediting him and with threats of investigations and impeachment. Public opinion polls show Americans view Democrats in political terms, not on policy, and only a small percent of Americans think the Russia collision story is important. The Democrat Party knows they are in trouble and are now trying to rebrand the party while distancing itself from former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer admits the failures of the party and is promoting the rebranding effort to offer up “a better deal” for their base.
