Don't think this is good news? I beg to differ.

Another dismal poll for donald was released yesterday, showing him at 33 percent approval. According to Harry Enten on CNN "Trump was unpopular going into midterms during his first presidency, but not like this--he's doing 19 points worse."

Look, it would be great if he was at zero. Not gonna happen. But several well respected polls have showed him mired in the low thirties recently. This is definitely going to help us in the midterms. If nothing else it will depress turnout on the R side and that's great for us.

I look at it like this. Thirty percent of the population approves of him and that's the maga base. What do we know about them? Well they're low information voters who are not motivated to vote except when trump is on the ballot? Is he on the ballot? No.

I just don't see how thirty percent of the population with little to motivate them will keep us from success in the midterms. Not going to happen. Not with the energy I see on our side.

Are these the pollsters who had Hongster winning in Wisconsin by double-digit margins? Whatever the combination of model defects, partisan over-sampling, respondents lying, or partisan fabrication, I wouldn't believe a pollster if his/her/its tongue were notarized. Including if I liked their conclusions.

 Yep. There seems to be some wildly inaccurate polling these days.
