Examples of unpopular in a Sentence

1. Sarah Binder:

   Its a really tough environment for lawmaking, first, the parties are surely more ideologically polarized from each other than they were decades ago. Second, theres more sheer partisanship in town than before -- tit for tat, your team is for it, so my team is against it. Third, close electoral competition narrows the window for dealmaking -- each election offers each party a chance to hold or gain control. ... [ And, ] because the president is so unpopular nationally and with independents, theres limited pressure on Democrats to resolve problems.

2. Scott Hogan:

   The MLB All-Star Game would be played in Georgia today were it not for Brian Kemp and Georgia Republicans' divisive, racist attack on voting rights -- plain and simple, though we've come to expect the Georgia GOP to put their bad, unpopular policies ahead of the best interests of our state, it is no less pathetic that Brian Kemp and Republicans are unwilling to accept responsibility for the consequences of their actions.

3. French President Francois Hollande:

   It takes time for those reforms to take effect, i am trying to do what the country should expect from a head of state... That means do reforms even if they are difficult... even if they are unpopular.

4. Adam Green:

   Moderate Democrats will face a fork in the road when it comes to the issue of bipartisanship, on many issues, a majority of Republican voters support a position that zero Republican politicians in Washington are willing to vote for. At that moment does bipartisanship mean cutting an unpopular deal with corrupt out-of-touch politicians like [ Senate Majority Leader ] Mitch McConnell ? Another option is rally the public and... we hope that's where [ Biden ] goes.

5. Dave Brisson:

   I think Rand Paul is seemingly the only candidate who's willing to say the unpopular things, knowing that it's going to offend people and get other people upset, but he says it seemingly because he believes it, and I think there are a lot of Americans that are right in line with that.
