President Joe Biden on Sunday ticked through a list of reasons he says a second Donald Trump presidency would be a “nightmare” for the country as he urged Nevada Democrats to vote for him in the state’s presidential primary this week and for his party at large in November.
Biden opened a campaign swing with a fundraiser where he focused on Trump’s ample history of provocative statements — his description of Jan. 6 rioters as “hostages,” his musing about a former top military officer deserving execution, his branding of fallen soldiers as “suckers” and “losers,” his wish to be a Day One “dictator,” his vow to supporters that “I am your retribution,” and more.
Then it was on to a community center in a predominantly Black section of Las Vegas, where he told his crowd of several hundred that “you’re the reason we’ll make Donald Trump a loser again.”
Biden said the stakes were huge when he took on Trump in 2020 — “what made America America, I thought, was at risk’ — and they are even larger now as a likely rematch looms.
If Biden took a hard stance against the Palestinian Genocide with serious consequences, and if Biden put through an Executive Order on Marijuana or at least replaced the DEA officials who are taking his entire term to reschedule it, then Biden would probably be polling at least 20 or 30 percentage points higher than he is.
Somehow 44% of US Citizens in some polls will say Republicans are better for the economy, despite the mountain of evidence otherwise, but only 36% would say Democrats are better for the economy. With Economy consistently polling as the biggest political issue to the general public. He could improve his polling by simply walking around with a picket fence sign that has one of many economic charts on it showing that he reversed the negative trends brought on by the Trump Admin and the Pandemic.
