The Magnificent Seven
First Read: “According to our August NBC News/WSJ poll (conducted before the violence in Kenosha), Trump held a 4-point advantage over Biden when it comes to which candidate better handles crime, with 43% picking Trump and 39% Biden.”
“But on uniting the country, Biden’s edge over Trump was 23 points, 49% to 26%.”
“And on race relations, Biden’s lead over Trump is 24 points, 53% to 29%.”
“So despite the conventional wisdom, it’s not clear at all this issue is a winner for Trump.”
