The DNC summer meeting in Minneapolis tackles the party’s political difficulties

Minneapolis, mn. – While the National Democratic Committee (DNC) holds its annual summer meeting, party leaders and civil servants are faced with a multitude of problems while they are trying to escape the political desert.

“There is no doubt that … We have work to do,” said DNC president Ken Martin, in an interview with Fox News Digital this summer.

Martin, who was elected president of the DNC in February, noted that the party had continued to “lose ground with many parts of our coalition”.

Martin will be aimed at the more than 400 leaders of the elected party of the 50 states and several territories, while the summer meeting starts in a hotel in the city center of Minneapolis, Minnesota on Monday morning.

The party tries to escape the political desert after last year’s elections, when the Democrats lost control of the White House and the Senate and failed in their attempt to win back the majority of the Chamber. And the Republicans have gained gains with voters who make up key parts of the Democratic Party base.

But the situation has only worsened for the Democrats during the 10 months since last year’s elections setbacks.

The brand of Democrats is deeply unpopular, in particular with young voters, while party survey numbers continue to switch to the bottom of all time in national surveys.

The DNC faces a massive fundraising deficit in the hands of the National Rival Republican Committee (RNC), partially fueled by the main donors of the party reducing their contributions while they express their frustrations towards the National Committee of the Party.

The new data of voters were published for the first time last week by the New York Times showed that the registration of the Democratic Party plunged while the registrations of the GOP were up in the 30 states that record voters per party.

And while the Democrats seem under tension to fight against the scanning and controversial movements of President Donald Trump in his first seven months in power, they seem divided on the difficulty of repelling against the new administration.

There is also a party fracture on the War of Israel at almost two years with Hamas in Gaza, duel resolutions being the last sign of the former support of Democrats to the fracturing of the Jewish State.

Despite the DNC chair admitting that they have problems, he saw a silver lining.

“When you touch the bottom, there is only one direction to go, and that’s in place, and that’s what we do,” said Martin.

The former president of the RNC, Michael Whatley, who officially resigned last week as he appeared in the Senate, supported in a digital interview Fox News that the Democrats “move further and further to the left. They are moving away from the main street at the moment.

“They did not learn only of their electoral losses in 2024,” said Whatley.

But despite all the problems and the setbacks faced by the Democrats, they won victories recently.

The Democrats have marked a series of victories on the special and special elections, before the mid-term elections next year, when the GOP defends its majority in the Chamber and the Senate, because the ruling party will probably be confronted with historic political-opposite winds.

Democrats also won some best recruits – former Governor Roy Cooper in North Carolina and former senator Sherrod Brown in Ohio, in two of the Senate’s most crucial races in 2026.

And although the number of polls in the Democratic Party is in the gutter, approval and favorable notes for Trump and the GOP are nothing to boast. In addition, the polls indicate that the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill”, which is the massive republican interior policy of Trump’s inspiration, tax reductions and the spending law, remains unpopular to the Americans.

Despite the survey numbers, the new president of the RNC, Joe Gruuters, told Fox News Digital last week that “we have the momentum on our side, we have the problems on our side, and we have a president who cares about each American. And we will take this vision and push it throughout the extraction.”

But while looking at the mid-term elections next year, Martin considers the GOP agenda as ammunition.

“We welcome the debate because it is the debate that will help us, as a Democratic Party, strengthen our coalition and win elections,” insisted the president of the DNC.
