You’d think the way Democrats pushed the idea of Joe Biden picking a woman of color for his vice president that it would show up as a positive in the polls. But it appears even now, that’s not true as Trump continues to build momentum.
Sure, he’s ‘behind’ in this poll but there’s a bigger story here:
Biden/Harris 50% (+4)
Trump/Pence 46%That’s a 10 point shift towards Trump In a month

Ten points.
One month.
And we’re getting closer to the election which is not good for Democrats.
Oh, did we mention it’s a CNN poll? HA HA HA HA HA HA
If that many people switched to Trump based on his behavior in the past month, we might as well give up now.
Not accurate.

Yeah, give up now.
Do us all a favor.
Democrats have nothing to offer Americans. Absolutely nothing.

Trump can still win people need to understand this right now

OH NO!
We understand this poll means the reality is Trump is probably up 20.

Yuuuuuuuup.
WTF? At a time when he's threatening the USPS, Social Security, health insurance, the Constitutution, lives? What is going on?
— JJ (@POSSIBILIAN1) August 17, 2020
WHA?
Could it be that Democrats have offered NOTHING in the last four years? That their entire agenda and platform is built around ‘oRaNgE mAn Bad’?
Adjust that figure by 10-15% towards Trump for a reality check.

Indeed.
I'm sure the Democratic Convention will change that right around.
Checks speakers and platform.
Never mind.

This means what I think it means: Biden screwed up his VP pick and pissed off a lot of progressives. Repeating 2016 is unacceptable.

Too bad, so sad.
