If holds, a problem for Repubs hoping to pickup Senate seats + Trump if he doesn't run for re-elex against a Hillary Clinton-esque Dem =>https://twitter.com/mmurraypolitics/status/899254712435978241 …
Let's avoid rabbit hole. I have long conceded bias issues & understand why suspicious. But thats' different from manipulation of every story
-
-
for instance, in this NBC/Marist poll, less than 50% of RV in all 3 states want Dems to win control of Congress next year. is that headline?
-
Not the bigger headline than POTUS
#s & not a headline since their # are better than Generic Rs. Plus that # is always below 50. -
Congress comes up for election alot sooner than POTUS does so POTUS # being more important is very debatable to me
-
His approval has big impact on midterms. Was same for Obama in 2010 & 2014.
-
Congress's approval in this poll is 10%. might that not also have a big impact on midterms? or even a bigger impact?
-
Not w/ safe seats because of how lines are drawn. Could impact battleground seats, though, definitely. But POTUS still impactful.
-
sure POTUS is impactful but more impactful on House races than House having 10% approval?
-
Viewed another way: POTUS high approval among Repub voters means GOP incumbents in Repub states & districts are safe, despite Cong's 10%

manipulation was your word. i said they quote the one that supports their story. call that bias if you want

Marist probably didn't do an LV screen this far out. You're assuming they did, didn't like it because better for Trump, & ignored.
-
if LV showed Trump 20pts worse, they magically would have done one
