Opinion: Dark clouds are on the horizon for Democrats
CNN
Julian Zelizer writes since the beginning of President Joe Biden's mandate, the Democrats' future has looked ugly. Now it's even worse.

Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin scrambled the Biden agenda by blocking the Build Back Better bill while Republicans prevented the John Lewis Voting Rights Act from advancing in the Senate. To top it off, a new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Research Poll shows only 39% of Americans approve of Biden's performance, marking the lowest point of his presidency.
