It's all the more frustrating because we genuinely don't have a good explanation for it. Biden's approval is NINE POINTS LOWER THAN TRUMP'S AMONG YOUNG VOTERS, in the exact same poll, 4 years ago. That makes no sense if this is about policy. https://poll.qu.edu/images/polling/us/us06202018_uyms36.pdf
People are going to yell at me and say "This makes perfect sense! Biden is such a disappointment!" But in policy terms, it simply doesn't add up, because no matter how annoyed young progressives are about student debt or anything else, Trump was dramatically worse.
We are looking at a mind that is completely incomprehensible and alien to us. Send in the science team to figure out what kind of fucked up assumptions it has made for this to make sense to it!
By what fucking metric??? I genuinely wanted Biden to be better than Trump, I thought the main problem with Biden would be a whiplash back to the right after him. But he has been demonstrably worse than Trump even in the short term. His covid response has been worse, and more deaths have happened under him even with the vaccine. He gave me less money than Trump. He’s literally not doing a single fucking thing about any of the number of crises actively happening.
Voting for Trump in 2020 was harm reduction, and saying that makes me want to shoot myself.
