Tom Emmer heads NRCC, and the poll is NRCC's.
NY Post headlines, "Trump to headline NRCC fundraiser in November with eye on 2022," with that item beginning:
Former President Donald Trump is slated to attend a National Republican Congressional Committee fundraiser in Tampa in early November, marking his first event with the House GOP’s campaign arm this cycle, two sources on the NRCC’s conference call confirmed to The Post.
NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer (R-Minn.) announced that the former president will headline the event during a call with members on Tuesday. Republicans have been bullish about their odds on flipping back the House of Representatives, with House saying they see Trump playing a key role in their efforts to pick up seats.
So, when you are Emmer in Trump's shadow never lose sight of the old standby. Sling mud at Pelosi.
Value and trust evaluations are always subjective - in the eye of the beholder.
Behold Trump and Emmer in their party with their newspapers where everybody there sez "Pelosi is not popular."
What has that got to do with how the Republicans are trying to stall and defeat some popular things Biden sez he wants done? That being the real issue, how to react? If it is unpopular to oppose what is popular, then shut up about opposition and dump another load on Nancy. That is a bit disingenuous of our Republican friends. But typical. Not that Nancy deserves a free pass from progressives, where she's not anchored at all, but the Republicans call her "socialist" and that's something they possibly believe even while there is not a shred of evidence she has even a single socialist bone in her body.
The Republicans repeat lies so often that Trump saying he won the election seems to be earning status among Republicans as a candidates' litmus test. Gotta say Trump's right about that, to have a chance in the GOP. Barriers exist to be surmounted, and Republicans are climbing all over agreement with Trump's whining.
Forget that. Look at how they are a force against good, in both Houses of Congress. Emphasize that. Repeatedly.
That is where the news is. Not in a GOP poll saying anything about Pelosi where you know they can rig their internal polling any way they choose.
Cut to the heart of things. Let GOP voices try diversionary tactics. Strategically, they are in total lockstep against even moderate progressive proposals which have overwhelming popular appeal.
BOTTOM LINE: KISS stands for Keep It Simple, Stupid.

While Manchin and Sinema each is against helping people who aren't rich, and they have House Dem cohorts, there surely are details which the above KISS image glides and slides past, However, for the truth of what it says, the image resoundingly stands on a sound and true - and worrisome - foundation.
Can't the Republicans give an inch, for the people? For US? How can they collectively be so mean? And nasty. Diversionary tactics and all.
