Polling analyst Matt Towery has issued a stark warning to Democrats that they need to get control of their party back from the extremists, or they will go “completely off the edge.”
He appeared on the Fox News show “The Ingraham Angle” on Friday, where he compared former Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern in 1972 to the current state of the Democratic Party.
The Democrats right now look like they’re drifting more towards the direction of George McGovern in 1972. And if you recall that that didn’t go so well. And Walz seems to be the perfect replacement for McGovern, except he makes McGovern look a little more serious,” he said.
“This is a point where the Democrats who really know what they’re doing in their party, and that’s people … who have run campaigns over the years, know the real issues people are concerned about, have either got in control of this party or it’s going to drift completely off the edge,” the pollster said.
He added that the Democrats should stop attacking President Donald Trump in favor of promoting policies that assist Americans.
“They certainly can’t keep attacking Donald Trump, because the pollsters who really get it right about Trump, I’m one, there are others, such as Robert Cahaly at Trafalgar and many others, Rasmussen, who polls every day,” the pollster said.
“They’re showing the president’s approval ratings are staying up, not going down. This is not, and Signalgate has not done anything, either. Yeah, I think that they got to get a new direction,” he said.
Democrats are in a ton of trouble when it comes to their own voters, as support for the party has fallen to historic lows.
A report from Politico, which dug into the recent polls, showed disaster for the Democrats, with the news organization saying the left-wing party should be “very afraid.”
“Congressional Democrats have typically enjoyed higher popularity with their voting base than their Republican counterparts. But the trauma of the 2024 presidential election defeat appears to have ruptured that relationship. A review of Quinnipiac University’s annual first-quarter congressional polling reveals that, for the first time in the poll’s history, congressional Democrats are now underwater with their own voters in approval ratings,” Politico said.
The poll showed that 49 percent of Democrat voters disapprove of congressional Democrats, while only 40 percent approve.
It is even worse when juxtaposed to last year, when 75 percent of their voters approved of them while only 21 percent disapproved.
Politico compared the Democrat collapse to that of the Republican Party before Trump and the MAGA movement came along on the heels of the Tea Party movement that preceded it.
What is worse for Democrats is that their voters do not know if they want to move left or right. A recent Gallup poll showed that 45 percent want the party to be more moderate, whereas 29 percent preferred a more liberal approach, and 22 percent wanted to keep the status quo.
The anger with the party from its voters is that there does not appear to be the same effort to “resist” Trump as there was during his first term.
This all came to a head when Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer of New York and other Democrats voted for cloture on a government funding bill that allowed Republicans to pass the legislation.
The report suggests that longtime Democratic leaders could face serious challenges during the primary season, as incumbents could lose to a new candidate.
“There are 13 Democratic-held Senate seats up for reelection next year — many of them involving veteran senators in the bluest states — raising the prospect of a stream of younger, insurgent candidates more closely aligned with the party base, similar to what the GOP has contended with over the past 15 years,” Politico said.
Moment Ilhan Omar Tries To Embarrass Rand Paul & MTG… It Backfires BRUTALLY..!!!
Moment Ilhan Omar Tries to Embarrass Rand Paul and Marjorie Taylor Greene Backfires Brutally
Washington, D.C. – July 29, 2025
– A fiery exchange on the House floor last week has sparked intense debate after Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) attempted to call out Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Rep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) over their criticisms of her stance on international issues, only to face a swift and pointed rebuttal that left her visibly rattled.
The confrontation, which unfolded during a debate on foreign policy, has been described by political observers as a brutal backfire for Omar, amplifying tensions between the progressive “Squad” member and her conservative critics.
The incident began when Omar, speaking on a resolution concerning U.S. foreign aid, took aim at Paul and Greene for what she called “hypocritical attacks” on her advocacy for human rights and criticism of certain U.S. allies.
Referencing Paul’s 2019 offer to buy her a plane ticket to Somalia to “appreciate America more” and Greene’s repeated accusations of Omar being a “foreign agent,” Omar accused the pair of using xenophobic rhetoric to silence her voice.
“They attack me for my heritage, not my ideas,” Omar declared, suggesting their criticisms were rooted in prejudice rather than policy disagreements.
Omar’s remarks appeared intended to expose Paul and Greene’s rhetoric as unbefitting serious lawmakers, but the strategy quickly unraveled.
Paul, known for his libertarian-leaning foreign policy views, responded via a statement on X, saying, “Rep. Omar’s selective outrage on human rights ignores her own support for policies that undermine U.S. interests.
I offered a trip to Somalia to highlight the contrast between freedom here and chaos there—not her identity.” Paul’s measured response shifted the focus back to Omar’s record, particularly her support for the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, which Paul and others have criticized as divisive.
Greene, never one to shy away from confrontation, took to the House floor later that day with a scathing retort.
Citing Omar’s 2019 tweet referencing “the Benjamins” in relation to U.S. support for Israel—a comment widely criticized as invoking an antisemitic trope—Greene accused Omar of projecting her own controversies onto others.
“The Congresswoman wants to talk about embarrassing? Let’s talk about her apologizing for antisemitic remarks, then doubling down on anti-American rhetoric,” Greene said, referencing Omar’s past statements and her recent comments at a Minneapolis event that critics, including Greene, falsely claimed prioritized Somalia over U.S. interests.
The backlash was amplified by a viral clip circulating on X, where users praised Greene’s fiery delivery and Paul’s calm rebuttal, with some calling Omar’s attempt “a self-own of epic proportions.”
One post, garnering thousands of likes, stated, “Omar thought she could dunk on
MTG and Rand Paul, but they flipped the script. She’s the one looking foolish now.” The online sentiment underscored the perception that Omar’s attack misfired, drawing attention to her own controversial history rather than discrediting her opponents.
Omar’s office pushed back, with a spokesperson stating, “The Congresswoman’s remarks were about holding leaders accountable for divisive rhetoric, not engaging in personal attacks.
The distortions of her record are a distraction from real policy debates.” However, the defense did little to quell the narrative, as conservative outlets and social media amplified Greene’s and Paul’s responses.
A YouTube video titled “Marjorie Taylor Greene TOTALLY HUMILIATES Ilhan Omar” racked up millions of views, further cementing the perception of Omar’s misstep.
The episode highlights the ongoing feud between Omar and her Republican critics, who have frequently targeted her as a Somali-American Muslim woman in Congress.
Greene has a history of inflammatory accusations against Omar, including false claims of marriage fraud and supporting terrorism, while Paul’s 2019 comments drew condemnation for their insensitivity.
Yet, Omar’s attempt to frame their criticisms as purely xenophobic appeared to backfire by giving them a platform to reiterate their policy-based objections, however exaggerated or misleading.
Political analysts note that Omar’s strategy underestimated the ability of Paul and Greene to turn the narrative. “Omar aimed to expose their rhetoric but ended up rehashing old controversies,” said Dr. Sarah Klein, a political scientist at Georgetown University.
“In a polarized climate, these exchanges rarely change minds—they just entrench existing divides.” As the dust settles, Omar’s attempt to embarrass her critics has instead fueled their supporters, leaving her on the defensive in a high-stakes political showdown.

Democrat Leadership in Turmoil — Schumer Loses Ground as Colleague Joins Trump Train
A stunning political realignment has emerged from an unexpected source as a prominent Democratic senator delivered full-throated support for one of the Trump administration’s most controversial military actions. The endorsement represents a dramatic departure from typical partisan battle lines and signals potential bipartisan support for aggressive counter-narcotics operations that challenge traditional legal and diplomatic boundaries.
The cross-party backing comes at a critical moment when the administration faces intense scrutiny over the legal foundations of its military intervention against suspected drug traffickers.
