Can Democrats reach the life of their parents as Trump and RFK Jr.?

The prices for strollers and car seats are skyrocketing because the companies are used by President Trump's tariff policy. The support of the federal government for an important campaign to promote safe sleeping habits for children seems to have been reduced. Mazor outbreaks are terrifying parents of small children, even if the nation's health secretary undermines the vaccines.

The guidelines of the Trump administration are increasingly entering the lives of American families, transforming routine and apolitical parts of the days of some parents – excursions to the pediatrician, conversations in swimming courses, the online baby equipment forums – rattling in scenes of fear and changes.

For a democratic party who is still looking for their strongest message in the middle of the upheavals of the second Trump concept, the policy of parenthood offers a meaningful test case: Can Democrats convince voters that this white house makes their lives more difficult?

“I've never heard of this fear,” said former representative Colin Allred, a Democrat from Texas who is considering a second Senate offer in his state, who has a significant measles outbreak. He said his apolitical friends – people who “only send their children to school and want to play the cowboys” – call me “and asked how:” What is going on? “

There are no larger motivators in politics as anger and fear. But in recent years, the Republicans have been far more successful than Democrats when they use the raw emotions of the parents.

In 2021 they drove waves of pandemic formation to victory in the breed of the governor of Virginia. Last year, the Democrats as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the leader of the “Make America Healthy” movement and now The Health Secretary were surprised to win Mr. Trump against the parents, who were located about food and fluctuated from false information about vaccines.
