Former Democratic advisor Dan Turrentine and American Majority CEO Ned Ryun joined ‘The Ingraham Angle’ to discuss the challenges facing the Democratic Party. During the interview, Turrentine emphasized that the party is ‘completely culturally disconnected,’ a claim he made in a recent podcast appearance. Ryun, the CEO of American Majority, echoed Turrentine’s concerns, suggesting that the party’s current direction is alienating a significant portion of its base and the general public.
Turrentine, who has served as a political advisor in the past, argues that the Democratic Party is out of touch with the cultural values of the American public. He pointed to specific policy areas where the party has failed to resonate with voters, leading to a decline in support. Ryun, known for his conservative advocacy, highlighted the growing disconnect between the party’s messaging and the everyday experiences of many Americans.
The discussion took place against a backdrop of increasing political polarization in the United States. Turrentine and Ryun both expressed concerns about the impact of this polarization on the political landscape. They suggested that the Democratic Party’s inability to address cultural issues is contributing to its struggle to maintain relevance and appeal in a rapidly changing society.
