If you’re President Donald Trump, you’re feeling pretty good. While polling hasn’t been your best friend, Mr. President, you should take note of the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll. It nukes the core of the 2020 Democratic agenda. Two of the Left’s major pieces for their 2020 election goodie bag, Medicare for all, health care for illegals, and slave reparations, totally trashed. On the former, even minority voters aren’t sure about Medicare for all, with 46 percent saying it’s a good idea to 49 percent who disagree. As of now, more voters think that Democrats would take this country in the wrong direction, 48/43 right/wrong.
On health care for illegals, 62 percent say it’s a bad idea, including 47 percent of moderate Democrats and 67 percent of independents. That’s a kryptonite issue. Sixty-seven percent are opposed to the Democratic plan to decriminalize illegal border crossings, with 47 percent of Democrats, 68 percent of Independents, and 63 percent of minatory voters opposing the left-wing push for open borders. Oh, and 37 percent of progressive Democrats, the Alexandria-Ocasio-Cortez wing, also agree; decriminalizing border crossings is a trash idea.

Wait a minute, the Green New Deal (Scam! Cough! Cough!) “Medicare for all that want it” seems pretty popular at 63 and 70 percent approval respectively, right? Well, for starters, when your flesh out the Green New Deal and find that it seeks to ban the internal combustion engine, you just watch those numbers drop faster than D.B. Cooper’s 727 jump. It’s literally government coming in and taking over your life.
Oh, and Medicare, well, again, there’s a reason why the numbers are so low when you ask voters about it being a replacement for private insurance. That’s the real number since the polls phrased it like this:
“Medicare for all that want it, that is allow all Americans to choose between a national health insurance program or their own private health insurance.” This is la la land. You cannot have the two systems co-existing. Those who are pushing it, AOC, Kamala Harris, and Bernie Sanders, make that quite clear. Still, some other good figures is that those who plan to vote for Trump no matter what rose nine points, with those dead set on booting him dropping from 57 to 53 percent and we have over a year until the next election. If jobs and economic growth continue, with the Democrats peddling terrible policy initiatives, expect that number to continue to drop. Even with a field this big on the Left, it’s filled with no-names, blowhards, and those who are way past their prime. There is not a single candidate I can see beating Trump in 2020. And with this agenda, it looks like even the Democrats have some issues in their backyard.
Someone just took the dems out back and beat the $hit out of them.
No wonder the wheels have come off the Clown Car.
Those are really bad numbers for the RATS
That this number of voters support Medicare for all, health care for illegals, and slave reparations, indicates a massive future problem. I expect DJT to be reelected, but beyond that the GOP has a problem.
Polls and their binary choices are DOA. But anything that puts the frighteners on the US Communist Party is welcome.
The DNC must be eating Rolaids by the case....................
Independent numbers are looking really well
I like how on a couple of those questions, they split out the moderate democrats, this is showing the party is in real trouble.
Thanks for posting this, very interesting
Why are adults and registered voters numbers the same? Rarely the case.
Was this poll taken before or after the squad called Trump a racist?
hahahahahahahahaha!
The problem here...if you broke the numbers up into 50 different state polls....I think in the thirty Trump-win states of 2016, he would look awesome. Even if you listed this for California alone...Trump would still look respectable. This effort to try and have some national poll to fit everyone into...just won’t work anymore.
Remember, people lie to strangers on the phone so they don’t appear “racist”

Those numbers are not as good as the democrats would hope they would be.
If anything they are giant losers for them
I can’t believe this poll. Sorry, I can’t. Over 55% say they definitely will NOT vote for him?
I would be interested in a poll that asks whether the Constitution is valid, as written...
Slavery reparations is unpopular? Who knew?
Some Democrats have said they’re in favor of proposed legislation which would set up a commission to study slave reparations. To me, that is a smoke screen to pave the way for reparations.
Anyone can say, as an academic Pursuit, let’s study this or that issue. But what do you think will come out of a commission that studies slave reparations? Isn’t that highly likely that such a commission would conclude that we need to pay reparations?
In other words, the radical types who are pushing the commission for slave reparations have their minds made up that we should pay slave reparations. They just want the political cover of some official commission which has studied the subject , to give them permission to say out loud that they favored slavery reparations.
NO wonder Nancy Pelosi is wetting her depends. . . . . .
Those are generic polls! I bet a poll of likely voters is really ugly for the dems!
Just remember kids we get another whole year of these idiots beating the living crap out of each other and coming up with stupider and stupider ideas is going to be fine more popcorn please
We need to label “The New Green Deal” as The New RED Deal. A far more accurate description.
In a week, the second Democratic debate will be upon us.
What will the candidates talk about? Free healthcare for illegal immigrants? But only 60% of Democrats support that. But 60% divided by the 20 candidates equals only 3% per candidate.
Will any of the candidates seek to rise above that number by, for example, offering additional benefits to illegal immigrants, such as free college tuition? Let’s hope so, because if that candidate’s numbers rise all the other candidates will have to go along in order to stay in the race.
