Totally appreciate you pulling questions from readers. I like your grassroots approach to polling. And Happy (belated) Fathers’ Day!

This was really interesting and helpful. As another commenter noted, "it's good to be in the majority." With Trump and his right-wing media echo chamber working overtime to build an alternative reality, it's encouraging to get data showing that the rest of us aren't crazy or off base. Your polling and analysis show that on a number of issues but it's good to have that grounding on impeachment, too.

Hope parenting is going well for you and your wife and that you enjoyed your first Father's Day as a Dad!

Thanks, Mr. Morris.

It's good to be in the majority.

Whether Congress will act or not is another question.

If (IF) we all get out and vote in Hungarian-level numbers this November, it should be a clarion call to Congress that we are not amused by their past performance.

I still think that impeachment would be a pyrrhic victory, and would give MAGA reasons to push back at the "persecution" of their cult leader.

Better to pass legislation that will draw a clear contrast between Democratic and Republican leadership.

Reverse the tariffs, resurrect the ACA subsidies, LOUDLY restore the Medicaid cuts, force the full release of the Epstein files. That should give voters clear and compelling reasons to keep Dems in office in 2028.

Then beat the drum for overturning Citizens United. Highlight the obscene amount of billionaire and corporate interests that are taking over our government. The time is right to pull the trigger on We the People taking back power.
