In reply to the discussion: Why is Biden struggling so bad? [View all]standingtall
(3,144 posts)Chief among is series of Democrats calling for him to resign after the debate. Biden was winning in the polls before then and his poll numbers will improve again if Democrats would shut up and get behind their nominee and their President.The Trump assassination attempt didn't help. They also just had the republican national convention which is usually not a good time in the polls for Democrats.
Furthermore the polls suck. Not interested in hearing lectures about accepting the polls we like and dismissing the ones we don't. Anybody who thinks Trump is going to 20+% of African American voters is drinking the polling kool aid. People between 18 to 30 which break heavily for Biden even in bad polling will make up more than the 5% sample size of polling in the actual electorate as their well over 15% of the population. I'm confident they turned out more for than that in 2020 and probably 2016 too.
