Moral of the story: Dems aren’t likely to win many more converts by attacking Trump’s behavior/style. But they can probably win converts by arguing he fell right in line with the “swampy” Rs (esp. McConnell) to take away healthcare/cut taxes for rich & has made DC even worse. — PolitiTweet.org

The first group of indies has pretty much got the president “as seen on TV” in 2016. No letdown there. But the second group is where Dems’ opportunity lies. He hasn’t “drained the swamp” or proven adept at “art of the deal” on infrastructure, immigration, etc. Dysfunction rules. — PolitiTweet.org
Dave Wasserman @Redistrict
My working theory...there were two types of indies who voted for Trump in 2016: 1) voters who liked idea of an unfiltered (entertaining?) prez who drove politicians/media crazy 2) voters who saw DC as 100% broken and wanted to try something totally different to get stuff done — PolitiTweet.org

Reminder: the 2020 election will be decided in large part by voters who view politics (and impeachment) as a distant game partisans play that doesn’t affect their daily lives. — PolitiTweet.org

A reversal worth noting: in 2018, 29 of 30 House GOP freshman were men. Today, women are leading GOP candidates in 25 of the 53 Dem districts that either 1) voted for Trump in 2016 or 2) flipped from GOP control in 2018. https://t.co/J09alRp0bz — PolitiTweet.org

This immigration of affluent suburban Rs to the Dem fold, btw, also helps explain why the Dem primary electorate is actually more moderate (and potentially wary of Warren/Sanders) than the party’s left-lurching stereotype. — PolitiTweet.org

The premise of this column is obselete b/c there’s a new term for the affluent suburban Republicans who don’t like Trump: Democrats. https://t.co/kguNMUg2j9 — PolitiTweet.org

In light of the new Dem push to overturn NC's congressional map in time for 2020, here's the "minimum county split" NC map we drew at @FiveThirtyEight for our Atlas of Redistricting: https://t.co/wZkagNgjhM — PolitiTweet.org

If Trump had to face this type of candidate in 2020, something tells me there wouldn't be much doubt about the outcome. — PolitiTweet.org

This week has shown: even though a certain 4/62 Dem freshmen have gotten about 98% of the headlines so far, some of the most impactful members of the class will be the women with natsec backgrounds. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump may be more radioactive than ever in upscale/diverse burbs. But if Dems aren’t constantly asking themselves “How will it play in Eau Claire? Saginaw? Erie? Green Bay? Muskegon? Wilkes-Barre?”...they’re taking their eyes off the prize. — PolitiTweet.org

Keep in mind, between 2016 and 2018, the turnout gap between college+ women & non-college men widened from 82%-63% (+19%) to 69%-43% (+26%). There are ~41.8 million non-college men who didn't vote in 2018, most of them white. Among non-voters, there's upside for Trump too. — PolitiTweet.org
