Today I talked to someone who said, Trump would win in November.

I asked, "Do you agree, Biden won in 2020?"

— "Yes."

"Okay. What specifically has Trump done since 2020, which has improved his chances of winning?"

— "Well… not much."

"Right", I said. "Then look at what Biden has done for ordinary people: Cheaper medicine, more jobs, the economy back on track. Will that make Trump win?"

(Very long pause)
— "You may have a point."

It is all a feeling — two questions, and reality sets in.

@randahl
Hate to be such a cynic, but most Americans don't keep track of anything that actually matters in the world of politics. Women started paying attention after the SCOTUS turned them into baby factories, but that may not be enough to overcome Biden's premeditated murder of the people of Gaza.
