Yep, Biden needs to channel his inner trump and talk to everyone and dominate the news cycles. 

what could he possibly say that would pull eyes from trump? trump is a walking fucking disaster and they love it.  no talk about policy is going to get more than 15 seconds on the nightly news.

Yes, it would require them to cover it. 

They don't want to cover it.  It's boring.  Biden doesn't get eyeballs.   We don't have news anymore.  It's infotainment.  Money and viewership >>>> news and information

Exactly he needs to talk about stuff that isn't policy and is just random shit an 80 year old in charge of the most powerful country on earth would talk about. You know, his favorite ice cream and all the funny Instagram reels he saw that day.

So basically do Beard’s fireside chats about except he’s drunk on Jack and cokes and doing it live from a WaWa in Pittsburgh

 

 

 

(which to be honest, Beard probably did that during his time here and we just don’t know about it.

Or they can regulate capitalism like they used to.

They never regulated “capitalism.” They regulated “industry” and certain “markets” to reduce “externalities” like “pollution”, fight “corruption” and promote “competition.”

With the exception of trustafarian grad students and tankies, nobody wants to hear any bullshit about capitalism right now. It just doesn’t win, and winning is the prerequisite of doing anything. Winning is praxis.

It's the Latin word for "with" as in "summa cum laude" which means "with highest praise/honors." It's like when people use "sans" instead of "without." 

So can something be sans cum?

The amount of people warped by the media in this country is astonishing. 

 

Expanded fucking NATO (This alone puts him All-Time, fuck)

Infrastructure Bill

CHIPS Act

Capped Insulin at $35/month

Highest Appointment of Federal Judges since Reagan

Lowest unemployment streak in 50 years 

Marriage Equality Law

Reclassifying Marijuana

Student Debt Relief

Inflation down from 8% to below 3%

 

This list is not complete but it blows many Presidents out of the water. 

The only reason people are not "feeling it" because Outrage Media is 24/7 and housing is expensive thanks to lack of supply. 

And he did all of that with a Senate majority that included Joe Manchin and Krysten Sinema.

Those are old paradigm standards of success. Apparently the new standards are things other than actually doing the job. 
I’m traveling back from a vacation where for the first seven days I did not encounter another American. The last three days were in a place crawling with them. Really brought it home that a lot of Americans are entitled, snowflake assholes.

Two scoops. That's what I like about these ice cream parlors, the two scoops. And what's the deal with hard candies..

I know we have talked about the disconnect, but I just don't see this happening in November:

Cook Political Senate Polls (with their Prez toplines from last week in parenthesis)

  • AZ: Gallego +5 (Trump +1)
  • MI: Slotkin +2 (Trump +2)
  • NV: Rosen +7 (Trump +9)
  • PA: Casey +8 (Trump +3)
  • WI: Baldwin +12 (TIED)
  • GA: generic ballot R+4 (Trump +3)
  • NC: generic ballot R+1 (Trump +7)

I mean look how good it did for Beard. This kind of shit works. It makes people relatable, it makes people connect. 

Right now Biden rules from the White House (an ivory tower of sorts) and has everyone do the talking for him (because this is their job). The problem is Trump is a direct to consumer type guy and that's what he's up against.

Those polls make perfect sense for people dumb enough to answer phone calls from unknown callers and then proceed to spend 10-15 minutes giving them information.

In a release, the IRS, along with the U.S. Treasury Department, said its Direct File pilot program, which rolled out on a limited basis earlier this year, saw 140,000 taxpayers claim more than $90 million in refunds and save an estimated $5.6 million in filing costs.

$40/taxpayer. Two yuppie food stamps. Nice.

also, "he's buying votes!" yeah motherfucker, he is

I stepped away from this thread because I get too anxious. But I’m back! Anyway, you really can’t make sense of this? It aligns exactly with Biden’s poor job approval numbers. Is it so hard to understand that people don’t like him, but they also really don’t like the GQP. Hence, they will vote for a democratic senator thinking that at least a democratic senate will keep him in check (lol). Now, maybe when they’re in that booth they’ll go ahead and press the Biden button, but that’s still up in the air.

Georgia is very easy to see going back to Trump, and I consider that likely.  There is too much smoke that black voters are not as energized for Biden this round, and that is what carried him in GA.  That gets Trump to 251.  PA gets Trump over the line but it’s hard to see that happening and hard to see Michigan going for Trump either.  To me, Trump’s path is to win GA and then get Wisconsin and Arizona close enough to have the Supreme Court decide for him.  It’s pretty unlikely.  But not impossible.  I would say it’s more likely Biden wins 2020 plus NC than it is Trump gets to 270.

It’s actually impossible.

I really like this “anything I don’t like is fake” shit he introduced into certain segments of our population. The evidence against him was overwhelming. But it made Brian sad, so it’s “fake”.

Another example of impeccable judgment from the genius who tried to pick a fight with Bas Rutten.

But he was smart enough to dump his first wife, got to bang Jenny McCarthy, and upgraded to a much hotter model... a model.

She'll be out of a job soon, trailing her primary opponent by 14 points in a primary with 6 candidates.  I think all her trips to NYC were to try and get a cabinet appointment.

Somewhere in the article it mentions that in 2020 that Colorado district went for Trump by over 18% - but in the recent poll Trump was 10% ahead of Biden.  10% is still an ass kicking, but losing 8% of your support may be this small nugget in there that is telling us something.

Kind of shocked Fox News is letting someone talk about Trump this way on the air ….

 

Only when you see trump’s behavior as unacceptable. The people watching this on the reg see Biden doing those things as reason not to vote for him.

All the while dealing with the lowest performing Congress ever...Democrats being paid by Republican billionaires to stall...leading into House MAGA blocking everything including their own speakers
