As pundits, pollsters, and op-ed writers turn to their assessment of President Donald Trump’s first 100 days — an “artificial metric,” White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles once said — it seems fitting to examine what the Democrats have done (and failed to do) over the same period.
The Democratic Party is in complete disarray. With only 27% saying they view their own party positively, the Democrats are suffering their lowest positive rating in NBC tracking in 35 years. They continue to openly blame, name and shame each other for lying to the nation about Joe Biden’s ability to function as a successful president (and frankly, Kamala Harris’ ability, too), for not stopping Donald J. Trump from winning a second term, and for being a rudderless, leaderless, visionless mess since.
With GOP control of the House, Senate and the White House, Democrats are the party out of power. Yet they are also the party out of touch with most Americans, out of excuses as to why they lost last fall, out of reasons why core Democratic constituencies that went for President Trump in 2024 should give Democrats another look, and often out of their minds in the hateful rhetoric they use.

Lately, the causes and characters they champion include hulking men in girls’ sports and a Salvadorean national “Maryland man” with gang affiliations, whose wife filed abuse charges against him. Because nothing says “we care about women” quite like stuntman and sometime Sen. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who has dishonored the memory of constituent Rachel Morin, a mother of five who was raped and murdered in his state by an illegal immigrant, but hightailed it to El Salvador to whine about “due process” for someone whose wife detailed multiple violent assaults.
Van Hollen has been awkward, but not alone. Congressional Democrats like Ayanna Pressley, who have done nothing to prevent or punish anti-Semitism on college campuses, have glorified antisemitic protesters, visited them in ICE detention centers, and referred to them as “political prisoners.”
Same with Teslas. Democrats want to force us all to drive electric vehicles, “EVs,” but not if Elon Musk’s company produced it. Those can be destroyed by arsonists.
Democrats’ obsession with Trump continues. He’s persisting while they’re resisting. Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is as incurable as it is insatiable. They are fighting the last war and poised to lose it again. They yell “bipartisanship” and vote as a pack. They talk too much and do too little. As President Trump transforms the GOP into the party of the worker, Democrats represent the elite and effete.
With each passing week, the Democratic Party finds new ways to insult, neglect, and alienate Americans, who would prefer they get on board with border security, tax cuts, deregulation, energy independence, minerals deals, trade deals and peace deals.
Democrats seem more focused on running for POTUS in 2028 than on helping the country in 2025. For four years they lied about the president’s acuity and ability. The least they can do for the next four years is lean into a president who is trying to fix what has been broken and tackle what’s been ignored.
As President Trump reflects on promises kept in his first 100 days in office, here are 25 mind-numbing things Democrats did and said in 2025 (so far):
