The 45+ crowd will vote for him because they support isn’treal and are afraid of Drumpf but I think we’re going to see a massive drop out of young voters. Probably too with the people who already don’t vote to begin with, namely service workers who are fucked over either way with D’s and R’s.

And here I thought Biden was going to win in November, time to eat crow.

    Biden forever courting the 5% of Republicans who will maybe vote for him instead of going after younger people who would like to vote Democrat if they weren’t such shitheads. “Nothing will fundamentally change.”

    The only wildcard is how some states had big turnout to protect abortion rights, like Ohio. Which will probably still go red cause it’s a shithole state but maybe other states will be blue.

      I’m very curious about the impact of abortion since it’s clearly hugely significant to people and yet the Democratic party has shown and continues to show they have no interest in acting on it on a federal level.

      I’m not even sure they have interest acting on a state level since everything I’ve seen has been ballot initiatives.

        Yet another opportunity to immediatly lock this election up and instead they send out Joe to stammer through a statement about how he doesn’t personally support it and “doesn’t believe in the whole my body my choice thing”

          It’s literally worse than that.

          “We actively explicitly told them we don’t care about their concerns and we will not compromise with them at all, and also if they don’t support us because of that it’s because they’re selfish and dumb.” That’s democrats literal message to young people.
