Thursday’s Obligatory Trump Post

One measure of the depth of Trump’s presence on the political scene today is a poll result showing that if Trump supports an idea—even a liberal idea like universal health coverage also supported by Obama—Democratic support drops substantially. Hey—maybe Trump really is a double-double agent intended to sow mayhem inside Democratic ranks too.

Just check out this chart from a PuffHo/YouGov poll, which shows that when Donald Trump supports universal health care, Democratic support plummets and Republican support shoots up:

Maybe this is only a demonstration of the tribal nature of politics today, but it would help to find out if Trump supports repealing the 1975 Public Affairs Act. Someone should ask him this in the debate two weeks from now. Could make for an amusing moment.
