Let them continue to run "blame Trump for everything" as their main strategy. It is now a proven stinker in states less blue than Commiefornia. If that's the hill they want to die on, that's fine by me.

the media will carry the water for them, and 81+ million people fully and universally support what is going on in the US right now

they’ll be fine. probably will expand their majorities in 2022

fk that. At some level if not outright intentional they know what kind of message this sends right?

Surely one would develop foresight. Imagine me going up on stage and saying well i am white male who is well endowed and am better then 95% of the population in every way. my pronouns are mr awesome and do you plebs have any questions?

Nope. His approval rating is also falling like a stone in WV with 77% of conservatives in WV saying he should vote to pass the 3.5 trillion dollar bill. Lemme see if I can find the referenced poll specifically. That seems high, but the 3.5 trillion dollar infrastructure bill is hugely popular in WV, not just the physical bill.

Cited poll is a survey from "WorkMoney", which I've never heard of.

Here's an interesting one. If you include raising taxes on billionaires or the Biden tax plan with the bill it gets positive support among every group. Further highlighting how this isn't a massively progressive agenda.

"• Voters are initially split on their support for the reconciliation package, but support
increases significantly when voters are told it will be paid for by policies that raise taxes on
the wealthy"

Oh

Bills which promise to give people free stuff and let some other, unpopular group pay for it will always poll well. If you wrote a bill promising to build a golden toilet for every American and let the billionaires pay for it, that bill would also poll well.

This doesnt mean that people would still support it after both sides had time to put a partisan spin on the bill. Just look at Obamacare, which gave many people better healthcare coverage and was mostly paid for by people with higher incomes - it was still an electoral stinker for a couple of years before the electorate had warmed up to it. And even today, it's decently popular but not a political slam dunk.

Lol.

you can't possibly be that gullible. the likes of manchin, sinema, pelosi, feinstein, biden... and pretty much every single republican vote for / against what their DONORS (and own financial interests) demand - not the "political leanings of (their) state", lol.





those aren't bills about "golden toilets" or some other frivolous bs though, you hack - those are affordable and realistic policies that have proven successful in many of america's peer countries. you know that very well, that's why you can't address the issues directly, and have to come up with excuses featuring golden toilets to dismiss popular opinion and lick billionaire boot...
