- Internal divisions within the Democratic Party are deepening, as many voters and lawmakers demand stronger opposition to President Trump's agenda rather than compromise.
- President Trump's overall approval rating is at 47%, his highest in NBC News polling, but a majority disapprove of his handling of the economy and inflation.
- The Republican Party's favorability remains higher than Democrats' at 36%, though it still faces net-negative ratings from voters overall.
