Democratic Group Looks to Close Trump-Biden Enthusiasm Gap

President Donald Trump may be losing, but that doesn't mean Joe Biden is winning.

At least that's the concern of a pro-Democrat super PAC embracing a new strategy backed by $15 million in online ads to help close the nagging enthusiasm gap between the Republican president and his Democratic challenger. The strategist leading the super PAC known as PACRONYM warns that Biden is leading many polls “by default” and may lose his advantage unless Democrats give key groups of voters better reasons to get excited about their nominee.

“We really think that Biden's enthusiasm gap could be a vulnerability,” said PACRONYM founder and CEO Tara McGowan.

Beginning in August, the group and its sister nonprofit will begin pumping millions of dollars into online ads targeting a group of roughly 1.7 million “low-information” left-leaning voters — largely women of color under 35 — spread across Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Arizona and Georgia who don't know much about Biden and probably wouldn't turn out to vote without a push. The strategy represents a significant shift away from a broader group of “persuadable” voters in swing states who have been the overwhelming focus of more traditional political groups.

Recent polls suggest that much of Biden's support comes from a coalition of voters united far more by their disdain for Trump than their affinity for Biden. There is also agreement between the campaigns that many voters don't know Biden or his plans very well, despite his lifetime in Washington.

Biden's team has largely dismissed the issue, pointing to the intensity with which many voters oppose Trump. But sensing opportunity, Trump's campaign has been flooding swing states with anti-Biden attack ads trying to can scare away would-be Biden supporters or at least persuade them not to vote at all.

As someone who has spent a lot of time around elderly people and having lost my mother to the ravages of Alzheimer’s I have to say the decline in Biden over the last few years has been remarkable. He is clearly suffering from dementia.

Only a Democrat fanatic or a fool would believe other wise.
Once dementia, of which there are six other types, sets in with the exception of a urinary tract infection which can bring on dementia, there is no coming back from it. The condition is irreversible.

Only dementia bought on by a urinary tract infection can be reversed. Not the others. Joe’s a goner.

To add to this, the riots are only helping President Trump capture the suburban women

On June 4 the ABC/Washington Post survey revealed Trump voters are THIRTY FIVE POINTS (69/34) more ENTHUSIASTIC than Biden voters. That link has since been taken down. The media and Democrats thought that if they ignored this it would go away. It didn’t. Subsequent surveys showed an 18 point gap and a 19 point gap a week later. THEY turned out to be outliers. Two weeks later it was back up to 31 then that was followed by another 35. In the first three stories about this data including this one, posted 7 weeks later, there are NO numbers cited. Of course not. If they actually showed the real numbers the Democrats would send up a white flag and jump out the windows of DNC HQ.
The point here is that the polls are worthless because there is NO ENTHUSIASM to vote for Joe Biden.

As I wrote elsewhere, Biden and Willard are in the same boat. Obama was detestable but in 2012 the best we could put up against him was a milquetoast, Kennedy-loving, pro-abortion/anti-gun RINO. Romney got 1MM more votes than McCain (14% of that came from Utah) and, on some level, was better qualified (at least Willard was a governor and had prove financial industry success, though he is a jackwagon). Considering the opposition he should have clobbered Obama - but there wasn't enough enthusiasm.

So, the question remains - is the lefts hate for Trump enough to get Biden (or whoever replace him after he's declared disabled post-convention) elected?

SOS Today re Fake polls.

Are Fake News Polls Hiding a Potential Trump Landslide?

Listen to network or cable news and you will hear that the November election is over. Joe Biden has a growing double-digit lead over President Trump, despite the election being over three months away and the issues that may decide the election largely unknown at present.

What do the polls say? Biden’s campaign manager, also known as CNN, has their “poll of polls” described as, “the five most recent national telephone polls measuring the view of registered voters.” Considering that only 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls in 2016, CNN’s “poll of polls” may not be particularly representative of the electorate.

CNN’s headline screams déjà vu, “Biden maintains a double-digit lead over Trump nationally.” That’s it then, the election is over. Trump supporters may as well pack it up and stay home. At least that is what they want you to believe.

Four years ago, the media was singing the same tune. On June 26, 2016, Time reported, “Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton holds a double-digit lead over presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.” How did that turn out?

To Clinton’s credit, despite her falls, bizarre facial tics, needing to be carried into a van, and overall unlikability, she was generally coherent. Unlike Biden who can’t get through a scripted interview without saying something incoherent, as he recently claimed his campaign attorneys are reaching out to “voter registration physicians.”

Perhaps he was referring to the next Nolan Ryan, baseball pitcher Dr Fauci, who through his ever-changing recommendations is seeking to influence the election in a way Russia could only dream of.

Let’s look at CNN’s gaggle of polls.

All true. But...The fact remains, Grandpa, that Trump won by 78k votes (the margin of victory in MI, PA, and WI). To combat the oncoming avalanche of fraud, the margins must be fatter in 2020.

Unless a cure for dementia is now available, I don’t see how Democrats can close an enthusiasm gap with Biden.
