SUSA's release also says:

Certainly, Republicans have every right to claim that Trump has not yet concentrated his fire on Biden, who carries much baggage and often shoots himself in the foot when he opens his mouth.

But the "today" head-to-head poll results show how much of an uphill climb Trump would have just to claw back to the 46% of the vote he received in Washington State in 2016, when Hillary Clinton carried the state by just 2 points.

... but while the first part makes sense, the latter doesn't make much sense.

WHAT ARE THEY SMOKING LMAO. Not only are they conveniently missing Hoover, who got 34%, and Landon, who got FREAKING 30%; saying that Trump got 46% in Washington is bonkers. Who wrote this?

Comparisons to 100 years ago make no sense anyway.

These geniuses didn't bother to check whether the other 2 Republicans who didn't get 40% nationwide got 40% in Washington.

Welcome in an alternate universe where Trump lost WA by 2.

[wbrocks67]

Woah, massive lurch towards Biden after HRC only won by 16 in 2016.

Not even the legendary Barack Obama was able to ever produce polls of him leading by this magnitude in either of his Presidential races.
