This stood out to me:

The poll comes also as Republicans hold a slight partisan edge over Democrats, which shows that 45% of Americans are Republican or lean-Republican, while 42% are Democrat or lean-Democratic, per Gallup.

That’s a change from previous years, including in 2022, when an equal number of Americans said they consider themself a Republican or a Democrat.

Democrats held a partisan edge over Republicans in 2020, 2018 and 2016, per the average of Gallup party affiliation polls from those years.

      Republicans don’t like career politicians

      I know y’all are a hive mind but that doesn’t mean everyone is

      You imply Republicans all have the same opinion and then accuse others of being a hivemind. Curious…

        Remember the strategy Karl Rove pushed the GOP to in the early 2000s – accuse your opponent of what you’re doing first.

      Observing the words and actions of conservatives, these are logical conclusions. I don’t need anyone else to spell out what’s so plainly obvious.
