THEY’RE NERVOUS AND THEY OUGHT TO BE: Democrats express frustration with Biden’s moribund poll numbers.
“You got to be concerned about those poll numbers, you just do,” Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) said. “There’s plenty of time to get them back up. Whether he can or not, I just don’t know but you got to be concerned.”
One Democratic senator who requested anonymity said voters at home expressed deep apathy about Biden’s prospective reelection during constituent meetings over the August recess.
The senator said the polling data “reflect all the miscellaneous encounters I’m having all the time.”
“There’s just no enthusiasm,” the senator said. “It does pretty much come down to ‘Well, he’s done a pretty good job, but he’s just too old.’”
Mr. 81 Million Votes was no spring chicken in 2020 but it was much easier to hide his senescence when he was “campaigning” from his basement than it is now that he’s LARPing as POTUS.
