There should be a face palm like for stuff like this.
A disappointing total turnout (due to two unpopular lead candidates), a huge swing in votes for non-major party candidates and a large swing in favor of Cheeto among those who did not like either candidate but voted for one of them is what allowed him to pull off the narrowest of victories in the Electoral College.You’re right his base isn’t budging. One difference from 2016 might be in GOPs that voted 3rd party last time especially never Trump types. We need them to vote Dem.
Also need Sanders to actually get the Bernie Bros to vote for Biden as well as good voter turn out in the swing states.
Ive said this for years. I want to do a middle finger thing but I don't hate the person posting, just the content. Face_palm would be ideal for these.There should be a face palm like for stuff like this.

No one can point to a study/poll where Cheeto has expanded his base. The massive turnout in 2018 was almost entirely a referendum on his leadership- and there was a Blue wave. Among the voters in that cohort of not liking either candidate, Biden currently enjoys a double-digit polling lead.
My goodness. Incumbent GOP Senators who have no business losing are polling within the margin of error or outright losing in the polls.

for the record, there is zero defending this. Was definitely not a sarcastic comment originally, because he wanted to prove he has a good "you know what". What a farce that someone even more senile is gonna (not seriously) challenge him in November.
Only now just caught up on it. It's literally insane, and clearly very dangerous. This has more grounds for removal of office than anything else previously. His chest-beating "i'm the President and you're fake news" isn't funny anymore. That group who's influenced him are according to the report recommending the actual drinking of bleach.

What a mess US politics is in. Just can't see Biden winning, they should've pushed one of the younger normie candidates.
No intention to seem cocky. Simply pointing out the positive trends in response to some who expect Cheeto will waltz to victory on the back of the Fox/Breitbart/MoneyJebus crowd.Nope. Evertonian. I know better than to get my hopes up no matter how good the silly season seems
You're pretty close. A lot of them tend to view [insert minority/underserved group here] as the reason behind there problems too, and guess who is willing to come out and barely hide that he shares that viewpoint? It's why the non-college graduate white group is the one he wins the most easily, followed by rural whites who regardless of education live in an area so segregated they can't recognize the humanity of other people. That's the other part of it.I dunno. Can’t believe he even gets 40% approval ratings. Many people must think that everything is ok as long as their wages are going up and they can upgrade their fridge. It’s a price worth paying

Play to the final whistle. Unlike the Newcastle debacle.
Wasn’t it only like 80,000?I know polls aren't everything, but they do provide some level of information, and Biden is way ahead of what Hillary was at that caused people to say she had somewhere between a 70% and 90% chance of winning. When you factor in her extreme level of dislikability, her large popular vote win and the fact that her electoral college defeat boiled down to about 150,000 votes total, it's hard to sit here today and say Biden can't win. It's just not a reasonable take at this point.
I think his cronies (staff) are relying on the point that large swathes of his supporters are clearly stupid or lack the mental capacity to remember a few days ago.Also... it’s not like his explanation would have made it better!!
