Can we even win at all?

[vercetti2021]

Now hear me out. This is me just reading the Articles over the past couple days about how Bernie can't beat Trump, about how Bloomberg can't beat Trump and so on. So if that's the case do we have anybody that can realistically beat him besides Biden who's sadly falling down the slope?

I mean this is really disheartening this to read everyday that who can beat him and who cannot but it seems to me like I see everybody that cannot beat him more than anything. Now I know this will attract people who favor Bernie saying how he can win or people who support Bloomberg saying he can win.

But I think my main concern is if we all have our doubts about who can beat who do we have anybody realistically that can beat Trump at all? And yes this is a concern just putting it out there. Reading these primaries over the past few weeks have been very difficult and it seems to be getting worse by the day. But I just need to know if anybody can realistically beat him.

4. This is exactly what "they" want you to believe

Putting aside the Rus-publicans for a second, the "mainstream" media loves a competitive race and love it ever more when it involves Trump. The fact of the matter is that the angrier and more incoherent Trump gets, the higher their ratings (see the movie "Network", which involves a much more decent guy than Trump and how his show helps his network the angrier he gets).

In almost every scenario, we can easily defeat this Buffoon and his sycophants in the Senate and the House. However, we can only do it together. With all due respect to Bernie Sanders, he's the one person I have doubts about. I think Trump is salivating at the chance to run with him, and will do everything he can to "encourage" the media to make Senator Sanders the front runner.

Let's see.

5. Yes if it's Warren/Klobuchar, I think, sorta maybe

That would make some of the men really show their tales.

The way we’re arguing, plus the MSM, it’s pretty sure Ugly will be re-elected. The Ds have really got to straighten out and stand together.

6. We were warned about a Republican disinformation campaign over a year ago.

It's meant to divide us and discourage us from voting.

7. Beating an incumbent in a good economy is going to be really, really hard. If some kind of war

gets ginned up in the next six months, it'll be almost impossible. No matter who the candidate is, we'll need to focus on turning back voter suppression and boosting GOTV efforts. This isn't doom and gloom: It's reality.

8. The good thing is

that if we can keep his approval rating under 45%, history shows he can’t win. So there is hope.

9. I think it will be difficult to beat him

We at DU really underestimate how popular he is with a reasonable number of people. And then there are people who don't like him but really like the racism and xenophobia and tax cuts for the rich and will vote for him anyway. It will be a challenge. We can beat him but we can't assume it's just going to happen.
