> polling data shows a +12 point spread on favorability numbers for the ACA
Here's the page where they show all the polls used to collect this "summary"[0]. Interesting that the vast majority of them show "against" strongly winning.
The PPD poll giving +18 for ACA shows that 49% want to impeach Trump, but conspicuously doesn't ask party affiliation. That's a huge red flag of a stacked poll.

- aaronbrethorst 9y agoHere, let me quote myself: What's interesting to me is that the ACA never had majority favorability until repeal was legitimately on the table. Also, best of luck with your poll unskewing. I had thought that the legitimacy of that ship had sailed all the way back in 2012. Guess not.
- fortythirteen 9y agoSo you actually believe that 49% of Americans actively want Trump impeached now?
- aaronbrethorst 9y agoWhy are you fixated on PPP? You're better off looking at aggregate polling data. That's what I'm talking about with the ACA.
- fortythirteen 9y ago> Why are you fixated on PPP? For one, it's the latest poll, and you're fixated on a recent change in opinion on ACA. Secondly, an aggregate of what? Once you have bad data in the mix, especially one that skews +18 in one direction, your aggregate is skewed as well. And that aggregate has half a dozen PDP polls in it alone.
- aaronbrethorst 9y agoAgain: What's interesting to me is that the ACA never had majority favorability until repeal was legitimately on the table. Have a nice day.
- fortythirteen 9y agoAnd again: your supposition that it has majority favorability is based on polls that are suspect. Have a good one.
