DNC Chair Ken Martin Says His Party Has Hit Rock Bottom: ‘Only One Direction to Go, And That’s Up’

Ken Martin, the chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), recently suggested that his party has hit rock bottom, and that this is a good thing because they have nowhere to go but up.

Martin is partially right. Recent polling has found approval for Democrats is at a historic low, but he is wrong about the future. They could still actually go lower. All they have to do is keep acting as if they care more about illegal aliens than they do about the American people.

Democrats have shown absolutely no signs that they plan to stop going down the same road they are currently on, which could easily lead them to worse approval ratings.

Democrats have hit ‘rock bottom,’ party leader says; here’s his unorthodox rebound plan

Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chair Ken Martin isn’t pulling any punches.

“There’s no doubt that … we have work to do,” Martin acknowledged in an extended, sit-down interview this week with Fox News Digital.

But the DNC chair sees President Donald Trump’s signature domestic achievement so far in his second term as ammunition that will help the Democrats rebound…

Martin noted that the party has continued to “lose ground with many parts of our coalition.”

But he sees a silver lining.

“When you hit rock bottom, there’s only one direction to go, and that’s up, and that’s what we’re doing,” Martin noted.

The party’s base is increasingly angry — and energized — to push back against Trump’s sweeping and controversial second-term agenda. And its anger is directed not just at the GOP but the Democratic Party lawmakers and officials who many feel haven’t been aggressive enough in combating the president.

How much longer do you suppose Ken Martin will continue to hold the seat of DNC chair?
