.President Donald J. Trump holds up a card with GOP Members of Congress who voted against the COVID Relief Bill but are now promoting it in their home states.

This is a history-book moment in the Senate. It was bad enough that only 7 Rs voted for impeachment - but maybe they can explain that. This vote is crystal clear: they are siding against a bipartisan commission that just weeks ago was expected to sail through. Truly wild.

Today we launched the latest installment of our research series Eye on the Economy – a study looking at the complicated issues contributing to voters’ views on the economy. Read the full report: globalstrategygroup.com/gsgs-eye-on-th…

Dear everyone who mocked the Dems use of MAGA… AP Votecast shows the “MAGA coalition” to be a fringy 31% of America.

Polling credit where credit is due to Global Strategy Group and Andrew Baumann who had Polis +18 (currently +17.25) and Bennet +11 (currently +12.32). #cogov #cosen #copolitics

It’s notable Biden’s “MAGA Republican” really did end up a popular shorthand for lots of candidates — useful to have a descriptor that put words to what voters could apparently detect themselves nytimes.com/2022/11/12/us/…

Here is the remarkable thing about “MAGA” (which some IDed early on)—it is toxic without triggering the passions of the man himself. Among 2022 swing voters who Democrats won over, Trump is -30, not great. But “MAGA Rs” is 13 points *worse* at clearance sale price levels (-43).

JUST IN: The US economy gained an astonishing 517,000 jobs in January – much better than expected. Unemployment rate: 3.4% --> Lowest in decades. Wages: +4.4% for past year (up 0.3% in January) Bottom line: This is NOT an economy in recession

🚨 NEW POLL: Since Roe was overturned, support for abortion rights in the U.S. has grown consistently. In particular, the share of independents who identify as pro-choice has increased by a net 15 points, and 68% of Americans under the age of 45 now identify as pro-choice.

An interesting number worth watching - while Trump support has held up, Monmouth finds support for "MAGA movement" in decline, down 14 points since March.

Remarkable uptick in negative views of Project 2025. In just three weeks, it went from being viewed unfavorably by 19% of the public to 43% - as rapid a polling rise for a policy agenda as I can remember in that short a time period.

Up for re-election in 2026 is a 1-term Kansas Senator who is a literal OB-turned politician who openly opposes abortion even in cases of rape and incest. He voted with Trump 98% of the time and was one of the 6 Republicans to object to certifying AZ/PA. He ran 3 pts behind Trump.

Good conversation with Katie Drapcho about a very interesting new poll that explored how media diets affect Econ perceptions. Or, rather…

Maybe a spicy take: liberals have a mild taboo against talking about personal choices making their lives better (systemic issues! It’s Privilege!), and conservatives don’t, so people looking for stuff about how to make choices to make their lives better tend to find conservatives
