Polls have also shown Biden’s support slipping among Black and ethnic minority voters, who helped drive his 2020 election win against Trump.

Analysts say Biden’s best hope now is a simple but quite specific number: that wages continue to rise faster than prices as they have done since April of last year, allowing consumers to feel that their wallets are fuller.

    I think a lot of Democrats are just politer Republicans who want to dupe us into thinking they’re actually leftists, and they get super angry when we see the wizard behind the curtain.

    my thoughts exactly, especially when “moderate” democrats win and just continue the worst policies of their republican predecessors. politics doesn’t just happen ad teh ballot box and we should de-emphasize electoralism as it becomes increasingly useless at stopping fascism

      The whole state is rotten. Always has been. We desperately need a real systemic change.
