Voter Frank Lunz said Monday that former Democratic voters who supported President Donald Trump in 2024 are actively responding to the rapid pace of his new administration.
CNN anchor Brianna Keilar said on “CNN News Central,” Luntz runs a number of focus groups, with “many voters who went to Trump in Hillary Clinton 2016, Joe Biden 2020 and then 2024.” He said there was. When Kaylor asked how these voters have perceived Trump’s second term so far, Luntz replied “pretty good,” emphasizing their appreciation for their decisive action in Washington.

“They love the pace of change, so they’re responding to it. They’ve been very tired of the past four years. They wanted action. They wanted results now They saw prices. They saw affordable prices. They saw immigrants. And they saw nothing happened,” Luntz said. “They don’t like what he says yet, but they like what he does. And these are Democrats who now feel they don’t have a border. They’re illegal. They did nothing to prevent immigration.
After being sworn into a second term on January 20th, Trump quickly took action to address issues ranging from the border crisis to the economy, and signed more than 200 enforcement actions within 12 hours.
“They wanted to see a wasteful cut in Washington spending, and they’re watching it. What they say to me is, “I hope he’s a bit rude.” , At the same time, they like what he does,” Luntz continued. “They believe he is serious about it, and for the first time they are confident in the future, so there have been some important changes in the polls about expectations for the direction in the coming years. You can see it.”

“It’s a big awakening call for the Democrats,” Kaylor replied to Luntz.
“I’m waiting for them to receive the message. I’m waiting for them to unite and realize that it’s opposed and resisted. “It’s something grassroots community Democrats want of them. It’s not something they’re doing. They may not want the approach that Trump is doing… but they want to act, and we don’t see any action from Democrats.”
Trump is moving so fast that Democratic strategist James Kerrville said on Thursday’s podcast he was confused about how to counter him.
“I don’t know how you’re going to emphasize. Do you oppose one thing? Do you oppose all five? Is it a HR issue?” asked Kerrville. “Is it a policy issue? …I’m struggling a bit here, so maybe some of our really clever viewers can help us solve that a bit. Who? It’s really intertwined because you don’t know where to land, either. It’s all unclear.”
Democrats also appear to be split over how they should oppose Trump’s agenda. Others try to cross the aisle, while others insist on resisting everything.
