The Democratic Party is adrift in a second Trump era with little idea of where to go from here. That means Democratic governors have been left to come up with their own “resistance” messaging, and the results just keep getting weirder.

Democratic governors are trying to boost their “resistance” bona fides by opposing President Donald Trump’s first major action as commander in chief. Unfortunately for them, that first action is deporting illegal immigrants, which is viewed favorably by 67% of the public, including 43% of Democrats. Governors are walking around with a level of bluster on this matter that doesn’t mesh with how unpopular their position is.
