If it's a choice between a genuine Republican, and a Republican in Democratic clothing, the people will choose the genuine article, every time; that is, they will take a Republican before they will a phony Democrat.
And if his approval rating was higher there, they wouldn't be swing states, would they?
Do something Joe!
can't, oatmeal.
It's the things he's doing that's losing him supporters
The two major issues he's highlighting is the border and gaza. I can't for the life of me understand why THOSE are the issues his campaign has settled on. Well, I guess I understand israel because of the money groups like APAC bring in... but still it's become really toxic among the base (even with most republicans at this point). And the border... like the fuck... we lambasted Trump for kids in cages and biden has decided that we should continue that policy and double down on it?
The only way he's winning a second term is if somehow Trump voters have lost their motivation and devotion to him. Otherwise this election is really not looking good.
There are so many popular issues that also make trump look terrible that biden could run on. Abortion, climate change, hating nazis, raising the minimum wage, expanding workers rights, LGBT rights, the actions of the FTC to reign in big business. He's got so many talking points to really be effective against trump and he's instead doing Hillary's campaign strategy of "Well yeah, look at that guy?".
Best he can do is supporting a genocidal maniac and blaming the children for not loving their options between two old, decrepit fucks.
