A new NBC News / Wall St. Journal poll conducted September 13 - 16 reveals that demagogue and lawless con man Donald "Individual-1" Trump is personally disliked by a record 69% of the public.
Of that number, 50% dislike both him and his policies, while 19% dislike him but approve of most of his policies (i.e., the "party or personal gain over country" segment).
There's also some warning signs for Dems as the primary process winnows down the number of candidates:
"Voters overall are supportive of many of the policy goals being discussed by 2020 Democratic candidates, but there are notable exceptions surrounding 'Medicare-for-All,' government health care for undocumented immigrants, and complete student loan forgiveness."Specifically, while 41% of voters overall would support a "Medicare-for-All" system, 67% would favor a Medicare buy-in process of people under age 65.
Trump is historically unpopular going into the 2020 elections, with his authoritarian disregard for the law and the Constitution on almost daily display, but Dems need to be conscious of where the public -- not just their primary voters -- are on key issues that they are advancing.
