Biden’s only chance to win is to promise to give every American enough money to afford their American dream

It’s time for Democrats to start playing Trump’s game or they will lose so badly this November, it’ll shake them to their very foundation.

I’m tired of blaming Trump’s popularity on the “public’s stupidity and ignorance.”

Perhaps much of the public is ill-informed, under-educated, and led by emotion but when more than half the country says the world was better off under Trump — and that because of Biden, gas is too high, food is too high, houses and cars are unaffordable, insurance is through the roof, and debt is soaring out of control,” Democrats days are surely numbered.

Democrats (of which I am one) are profoundly tone-deaf and come off as spoiled, privileged, out-of-touch, entitled, assholes of the highest level.

The only time I scream bloody murder at my television is when I see rich, Wall Street, private equity types, look straight into the camera, trying to convince working-class folks drowning in debt that they shouldn’t believe their actual life experiences and should instead look at the data and charts.

Fuck the data and the charts!
