His campaign strategy is:
- Hope no one notices you to minimize fuckups and exposure of your terrible record.
- Hope shit gets so bad between now and November that Trump is unelectable.
Honestly probably the best strategy you can ask for with that shitty of a candidate.
Politico is fash trash, but still, not a good look... "Trump’s campaign knocks on a million doors a week. Biden’s knocks on zero."
Right, we learned from the primaries that knocking on doors doesn't matter. Having a motivated and committed base doesn't matter. The media narrative matters.

That's not the right takeaway from the primaries. The key here is that what works for a centrist Democrat won't necessarily work for a left-leaning outsider, and vice versa.
Bernie needed to knock on those doors and got a lot of positive results from it. People liked him more the more they heard about him, and a physical campaign presence showed that he was running a serious and popular campaign. Biden doesn't really need to knock on doors (because he's a serious candidate by default), and it's debatable how much door-knocking would help him (because no one is really going to get excited about him if they learn more about his campaign).
I don't think any amount of door knocking could have overcome the bullshit of 2020, but I'm not saying we should change strategies as much as I'm saying we should think about how to make sure their bullshit doesn't work next time. Democrats trust CNN (AT&T) and MSNBC (Comcast), love too be getting all my news from giant telecom monopolies. We need to think about whose loyalty the party believes it needs, because those entities are our enemies.
he won the primary without doing anything so he's just going to keep doing that until he's prez
I've been getting nonstop Biden ads online and on TV, but I live in a swing state so that's probably why.
I'm imagining a symbiotic relationship between the arrogant and the grifters where people who don't give a shit tell the people who write their paycheques what they want to hear
why yes there is. its theres a GOD DAMN CHEEWTI UN THE WHITWHOUAE
I have been called by the local democratic party, but they're self motivated and entirely volunteer run, so I don't think it counts
I got a letter from Obama asking me to donate to his friend Joe
Remembering when his California headquarters was padlocked the weekend before Super Tuesday lol
The vast majority of dem nominees would've had their campaign be a post-it note that says "I'm not Trump".
Since this is hellworld I still am not convinced that is enough.
I don't know if he even has to have one at this point the gop are just really fuckimg them selves over. They believe in their Ideals so much they are willing to get swept in nov
