Really interesting piece from @amyewalter, on how polling indicates the real dividing line between Democratic moderates and progressives is immigration -- but thus far few moderate Dems have been willing to speak up about it https://t.co/lZc7Gp28qy — PolitiTweet.org

fwiw doesn't feel as if we're at a point, even with the recent polls, where Democrats are getting alarmed that Trump will be harder to beat than expected. so still just a moot point — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

but it's worth watching what Trump's rising approval numbers would mean for the Democratic primary. Do voters start looking at candidates different if they think Trump is less beatable? Does it help Biden, who leads in 'electability' polls? — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

we're reaching a critical mass of polls that show Trump at or near an all-time approval high. His numbers might dip again after a tough week, and he's still in low to mid-40s, which obviously isn't stellar https://t.co/alM8OcKfze — PolitiTweet.org

i.e. you can get a lot higher than 27 percent support nationally even if only Democrats (and Democratic-leaners) support it — PolitiTweet.org

Also, @IndivisibleTeam surveyed 18,000+ members after the debate about the Dem primary. Like a lot of Trump-era groups, its membership skews toward women. The results came back overwhelmingly in favor of Warren and Harris - no other candidate close https://t.co/2LEFAqa94c — PolitiTweet.org

@benbwieder One detail uncovered by @benbwieder: Warren and Harris had the most overlapping donors (people who gave to both) last fundraising quarter - more than any two other candidates. https://t.co/2LEFAqa94c — PolitiTweet.org

Alex Roarty @Alex_Roarty

New from @benbwieder and me: A look at polling and fundraising data suggest Warren's chief rival isn't Sanders -- it's Kamala Harris. The two candidates are in a fierce competition for voters, especially among many women and college-educated white voters https://t.co/2LEFAqa94c — PolitiTweet.org
