That's going to hurt because that going to pull from the states where he desperately needs to spend the money.

The abortion made up crisis didn't hurt DeSantis or Rubio and is not hurting Trump since it's a state issue. What Floridians care about the most is the inflation and cost of living and Biden has the same popularity in Florida like Charlie Crist. So the Dems can take money away from PA, MI, WI and even Nevada which Joe is losing and put it in Florida a state that Joe is losing by +7. It's malpractice if the people running his campaign do it. Joe is not @50% but 39% approval. Let's stop pretending.

What is an abortion made up crisis? Abortion has become an issue because Trump's SCOTUS shot down RvW and states like Florida have jumped in with abortion bans. Who is making up what?

Biden can do both. He has a huge fundraising advantage. Trump has to pick and choose his fights due to a lack of money.

Democrats for votes. Every 4 years there is a new crisis for Democrats they use for votes, it's either climate change, healthcare, voting rights, social security or abortions. Abortion is a STATE issue. What part of state you don't get? The people of the state with their state representatives and their state courts will decide what limits they want on abortion and who they want to represent them as President, Governor, U.S. Senator, State reps and Florida wants the GOP to run the state and the country on behalf of Florida. Is not a federal issue and for sure is not a President's decision.


Unless they let Biden get away with more lies like he has done with the student debt bailed out and ignored the U.S. Constitution. Is not a executive branch decision.

Trump lack of money? LOL. So did Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton and they both lost. Polls shows Biden losing in 6 out 7 battleground states, so money is not going to help him. What is Joe going to do, give stimulus checks out for votes.

And speaking of PA…

Quote:
Democrats should be jittery about Pennsylvania voter registration trends

...If you are doing the math, as many Republicans registered in the state as Democrats and independents together, and even independent registration outpaced the Democrats by nearly 900.

In July of last year, Democrats held a 480,000 voter registration advantage over Republicans, but by Oct. 10, that margin had fallen to 446,467. And the trend has continued in the six months since then.

Indeed, if you go back to the day President Joe Biden won this state in November 2020, Democratic voter registration has gone from over 600,000 voter registration advantage to a 389,000 registration advantage, according to the newest numbers released by the Pennsylvania Department of State.

The key to Biden winning Pennsylvania will probably come down to the suburbs of Philadelphia.

That population, the suburban educated, are not voting as a majority for Trump.

We will see what the working class in PA thinks about Biden economics and about Kamala Harris finishing the term. Biden needs PA to stay in the race, Trump doesn't. Biden's numbers are too low to win if the election was held today.
Biden in 2020 was leading in PA the whole year. His average was 7+. Today he is 0.1% if you add that joke of a poll of Joe by 10+ that brought his numbers to a tie in just PA.

Joe is in deep trouble.

I think the Biden support will extend further out than just the Philly suburbs extending to the west and north. Biden has a good chance of winning counties such as Berks, Pike, and Luzerne that he lost in 2020.

Based on what? He has a 39% approval. Do you understand what that means? Going from 50% approval in 2020 to 39% in 2024 and add the independent candidates running from the left, his chances of winning in 2024 in places that he lost in 2020 are very slim to none.


Can people put their wishful thinking and feelings aside and get to reality. Joe isn't expanding in 2024. He has to defend what he won in 2020 during a pandemic that he caught a break and by the polls now he is losing a big chunk.


Reading some of the posts here makes it look like a x-mas list and there is no credit in the bank.

You get that the 39% approval rate you always quote, does not necessarily translate into votes against Biden?

Someone may think he's not doing such a great job, and still vote for Biden.

Because the Republican option with Trump, is much much worse.

We've all seen Trump as president for 4 years in action, and he's a blabbering imbecile, most of the time. And truth be told, he won't do much of anything for the American people, except exact revenge on those he hates.

And yet, even with a 39% approval, we have one PA poll that has him up 10 points over Trump.

You Trumpers keep harping about Biden's low approval ratings, but you're in denial that Trump's approval ratings are just as low.
