Yup. That's my take. The folks at WaPo chose to focus - and to be fair, I think the Sunday news shows did it too - on the "presidential popularity contest" aspect of the poll results. However, WaPo, NY Times and other majors have labored mightily to paint the Trump presidency in the poorest light possible, while minimizing the Dem party's issues. That makes the revelation about Trump's "elect-ability" a relative bombshell, especially since most survey participants identified themselves as "Independents", rather then Repubs or Dems.
But, WaPo chose to bury it. Figures.
