Yeah Democrats could literally wipe out every bad news story about Chicago convention violence in the streets and Hamas sympathizers disrupting speeches in a second if Taylor Swift would get on stage and endorse Joe Biden at the convention this summer. Her endorsement on Instagram in 2020 was great but now she's the one that can give the Democrats a huge positive news cycle and eradicate all the negative.
What's made Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg the best surrogates for Joe Biden is they go on Fox News. If Gretchen Whitmer had the courage too then i would be singing her praises too. That's why virtually no one likes Chris Christie yet his endorsement matters because love him or hate him he's someone you want to keep the TV on to listen to.
Honestly if you are watching Fox News you were always going back to Trump.
I guess this election is going to be damn close no matter what Biden does or who ran. The winner will be about such small amounts of votes in 5 states that anything could matter (Biden will CRUSH the popular vote). Shoot everything will matter but I just get irritated when hacks (in a good way) say you should do this or that or say this or say it this way I just kind of shake my head and say who knows what changes these voters minds. The fact that people can vote for Trump after everything they have seen and heard and read says more about us. When political people say it’s the “economy or inflation or immigration or abortion” I kind of go “sure but those are true in EVERY election.” What is different is that somehow people want what Trump is selling. They feel like they are immune and it won’t affect them even after watching him drive the economy into a ditch and killing a million people. You just can’t convince me that people are like “well yeah it was just bad luck for Trump” because they wouldn’t blame Biden for inflation.
You look across the world and rightwing parties are just winning. Combine that with that people just hate incumbents everywhere just makes the environment so tough.
I feel like this is what some group in Germany and Italy said in the 20s. They don’t like (waves hands furiously) this and so I ll go for these idiots bc…change. The difference is the decadence of the west. Everything COULD be better but my god if we go down this path we are hosed.
