The graphic is especially impressive. There is a massive swing to the left in public sentiment. This is reminiscent of GWB’s second term when Americans were finally fed up with his presidency. The same is happening with Trump and the sentiment is palpable.

I will not dispute the takers are rapidly outnumbering the makers.

I had always hoped it wouldn’t happen in my natural lifetime.

No, it''s not about the President. It's about the insane lies surrounding the George Floyd incident (which the President had nothing to do with). For some reason millions of people have been swept up in an orgy of self-hatred. The poll you cite was taken at the height of the madness. It was clear that there would be a slow walk back in the other direction, but it was unclear how far that would go by Election Day.

It’s all about the president, make no mistake. “Mexico will pay for it” has become the biggest presidential lie ever, far outclassing “Read my lips, no new taxes” or “If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor”. Independents are swayed by those kinds of things. Heck, it swayed me.

Think people can’t think ? It’s in part about BLM. But there’s much more behind the total disgust with the Reps party. But Nov is coming.

Hahaha Biden helped draft the drug war that disproportionately victimizes blacks, why would BLM'ers support him?
Good lord, the logic of voters

FDR's (D) New Deal created a federal government that regulated business, provided a basic social safety net, and invested in infrastructure.

Republicans have worked tirelessly to undermine this, gut the government, and redistribute wealth upward with tax giveaways for the rich.

Trump's response to Covid has brought the Republican strategy up against reality. Less than a third say he's done a decent job of handling the pandemic,

No wonder more and more Americans are looking to Democrats to govern. Turns out most Americans like clean water, Social Security, safe bridges. Most Americans are not down with risking their lives for the good of the economy.

Who knew, eh?

FDR created the mess of Federal over reach and the Welfare State. LBJ made it much worse. Your Kook views about Trump are wrong. What should he have done differently about the Chinese Virus?

You forgot the part where the "New Deal" unnecessary lengthened the depression
