I knew I felt an overwhelming disturbance in the force, and now hearing that 7 or 8 people are writhing in despair explains it.

The only people I know who voted for this asshoe are old white lefties and dumb View watchers. That is his base.

“....18 people; nine blacks and nine youngsters...”

That kind of describes his “true believing “ base in a nutshell.

Frankly, Biden’s polices have ALL been wrong and have hurt our nation. That’s tough politically.

I’m guessing ‘women’ were not a focus group because they no longer exist...

The Dems will be punished in 2022.


Right after the causes of the stolen 2020 election are rectified ...

FOX does similar all the time with Frank Luntz...

Focus groups are snapshots, they should be taken with a grain of salt, but they can pinpoint trends...

“Democrats are desperately trying to understand what’s roiling the electorate heading into a brutal midterm environment. “

another glitch: it would appear that the electorate is actually believing their lying eyes when they look at what groceries, heating, gasoline and rent are costing compared to a few months ago when trump was still president ... the dems biggest mistake was to destroy the country so quickly that even the short-attention-span voters noticed the difference ...

It's not. When you are swimming in arrogance, any suggestion that you may be doing something wrong is

“Right after the causes of the stolen 2020 election are rectified ...”

That won’t happen. The GOP isn’t interested. The Dems are currently positioning for another round of mail in cheating.

I have a very low opinion of the American public. I noticed something in 2020 that should hold true in 2022. The public doesn’t care about explanations, they don’t care about factors, they just care about what’s affecting them. In 2020, I heard lots of local call in shows where people were quite upset over covid and were blaming Trump for not stopping it, (as if that were even possible). It was then that I knew the election was in doubt. It made it possible to steal the election.

The public is still stupid. The motivating factor is the cost of gas and groceries. There will be some steals, but it’s just too big to steal enough to hold the House. The Senate? Not sure about that one.

Agreed.

What base?

Biden showed up in Arizona in October 2020 and this was the result:

The reporter was flabbergasted that NO ONE showed up for his "rally". The empty street behind her was supposed to be filled with screaming supporters.

I was there that week. And a few days later, Trump showed up: rallies in Prescott and Tucson were SRO, the traffic jam at Sky Harbor due to people gawking at AF1 was huge, and you would have thought God hisself had appeared.

Biden doesn't have a base out side of DC, a few propaganda organizations, university faculty/administrator staffs, and of course, Hollyweird.

PS - we are told that Biden "won" Maricopa County. Little points like this make that concept ever so dicey.

Why Biden’s base is in distress

Why Biden’s base is always in distress over something... which way the wind blows, if the sun will come up, will my socks match? All Liberal daily concerns which lead to their distress...

One of the things I noticed in this article, none of the supposed “base” Democrats mentioned Climate Change as one of their core issues. Yet, that’s what the progressives in DC are still obsessed with.
