And for a very simple reason.....he hasn't been racist and genocidal enough, Biden has, so Trump loses pure and simple

While you and me see dead children on TV, the American "middle class" see dead terrorists and soon the dems will tie inflation to Yemen and can literally construct a narrative about "bombing inflation" a consultants wet dream

When the initial shock of recent events wears off, American voters won't punish Biden, they'll reward him with the wartime boost he's been looking for since Ukraine

Trump in the meantime is still babbling about 2020 and his court dates, he needs at least five "Mexican rapist" stump speeches to reach parity with Biden

It's Joever folks, Biden secured 2024 with the blood Palestinians the same way Bush secured 2004 with the blood of Iraqi, it even has a historical symmetry that rhymes

    I have been saying this for a while: the Democrats are eating the Republican Party’s lunches - from racism, immigration, to warmongering and “fighting terrorism”, and support for the police force. It’s hard to think that this is not a deliberate strategy.

    There is a reason why the Republicans have gone crazy with the abortion issues and anti-trans legislation - not that they haven’t been doing those cryptically, but because these are the only fringe issues left for them to rally their increasingly deranged chud supporters.

    Even more, Biden has delivered the best performance yet for the richest of the donor class. $1 trillion handout from 5% interest rate hike, S&P500 at record heights (50% higher than Trump’s highest point just 3 years ago, can you believe that), and not only that, they managed to screw the working class and especially the black and Hispanic communities while upper middle class white families benefited most from Biden’s policies.

    The rich absolutely relishes in screwing the lower class. It’s not just enough to make more money, they have to kick the ladder along the way to quench some unspeakable ghoulish urge. And Biden gave them just that - black unemployment has gone up while white unemployment has gone down, as one example.

    At least for the smart Republicans who want to keep black people out of their neighborhoods, Biden has delivered. Trump likes to talk big but his achievements had been pale in comparison.

    Having said that, I don’t know why the Democrats are so worried about Biden losing though. Them wanting to bar Trump from running in certain states suggests some concerns about Biden’s electability, and this can only backfire on them if they’re not careful.

      "I'm voting Haley because she's not Trump" I have actually been wondering about this since his entire campaign is literally just "he's not Trump" what happens if someone else gets the nomination? I think it's reasonable to assume it would depress turnout from both parties unless it is due to something that can be pointed at as Democratic corruption like blocking Trump from the ballot, in which case I would guess it would only depress dem turnout.

      Though I am not clear if this does anything for write-ins or not so I don't know if we would see our first actual spoiler candidate.
