    . No previous-loser has ever won against the person who beat them in the history of presidential elections.

    Biden’s current approval rating is 34%…

    What’s the last president with numbers that low he got a second term?

    Like, I don’t think people understand how historically unpopular Biden is. 34% is fucking insane for being the president that followed trump, you can’t get a better set up than being compared to that shitheel.

      Liberals are so self-assured that they occupy the majority position that they simply cannot fathom that number is accurate.

      I honestly do not think there is any way to get through to those people. Everyone who disagrees is either not a real american democrat or have been duped by the fake media.

      They will drive us clear over the edge of the cliff and blame us for giving them the wrong directions.

        It’s just insane to me.

        Like, there’s that thread where Biden’s talking about not bowing to “elites and millionaires” calling for him to drop…

        And people are acting like that’s really what’s happening.

        The elite and billionaires are the only ones not calling for him to drop, he’s trying to frame it as him fighting for what voters want, but voters don’t want Joe as the candidate.

        On Friday when they asked him about the polls, he just pulled a trump and said they weren’t fucking real.

        Before trump in 2016, that answer would never have fucking flown.

        Yeah, I’m getting some real Hillary 2016 energy on this one. Instead of it being “her turn”, this time around, it’s about Biden’s “legacy”. And I’m sure I’m not alone when I say I don’t give a fuck about either of those things, I’m very much in the majority. Biden’s legacy can get stuffed just as much as any notion that it was Hillary’s birthright to be the first female American President…

        TBF, the same “deep state” that the right clutches their pearls over are the same ones that pulled the Butter Emails garbage…but still. Beating donnie should be a slam dunk. He’s basically the Washington Generals here, but somehow, the Democrats seem to do worse.

        When I was campaigning for Bernie, I ran into two groups of people who you just COULD NOT have a reasonable conversation with… Magas and Clinton liberals… They just will not/cannot see reality
