President Trump has publicly accused six members of Congress of being “traitors” for producing a video reminding members of the armed forces that they can refuse illegal orders, going so far as to suggest they should be arrested and put on trial. This reaction underscores Trump’s pattern of viewing criticism as an attack on the state, revealing both his disregard for free speech and his narcissistic tendencies.

Schumer is now the most unpopular Senate Democratic leader on record, say polls, and it’s difficult to ignore the stark reality this paints. The sentiment circulating is overwhelmingly negative, and it’s easy to see why. The criticism isn’t just about policy disagreements; it goes deeper, touching on a perceived lack of leadership, strategic failures, and a general sense of being out of touch.
