comparison videos of supporters at Trump events vs Biden events should be on TV every time they mention a poll. Biden’s numbers are even worse than Hillary’s - and who would have thought that would be possible?
If it didn’t work in 2016, why do a repeat? I think its the opposite. Complacency leads to laziness. People probably didn’t bother voting for Hillary since they were told that she was a shoe in.
This article was perhaps the most gorgeous thing I’ve read. Ever.
Media also needs to keep a contentious race for those media dollars rolling in
This is a good article, and I agree that gaslighting and lying and “media dominance” is the strategy.
However, the Democrats need to fire their psychologists, because they just do not understand how people’s minds work.
Two simple rules:
(1) If you want to attract young people and talk about “change”, the best way to do that is with a young, articulate candidate.
This year—total absolute fail—couldn’t get worse—and can’t get fixed with “messaging”. Slo Jo Biden is the medium. “The medium is the message.”
(2) If you want to get people to kick out the incumbent and support the challenger, you need folks to feel safe and secure with the challenger.
The riots (and the Democratic “stand down” response to them) terrified the American people. The “grim determination” you are seeing with voters is a determination to keep their homes and neighborhoods safe. The President has an image as a strong man who will never be intimidated, Biden talks about “meetings” and “committees” to discuss stuff. While crazies are burning and looting? Are you kidding me? Worst possible image and message for the Democrats.
Likewise, censorship by big tech and doxxing by leftists and shadow doxxing (cancel culture) by big corporations and organizations has terrified the American people. Everybody knows some web sites or somebody that has been censored (directly or indirectly) by Big Tech. Biden could not care less about this issue. Total fail. Worse, the censorship is always against President Trump, so average folks feel the big corporations are treating them like the President. Disaster for the Democrats.

If you have the wrong message you are burnt toast—so spending zillions of dollars propagating this wrong message just makes people hate your candidate more.
I expect stunning low vote totals for Biden, significantly below the Hillary numbers. Even if the President just matches his 2016 voter figures, he should win comfortably., particularly in the electoral college.
