Biden's optimism collides with mounting political challenges

Biden thinks he can orate his way out of this mess, he is making Harding look like a top fiver.

This is the first time I can remember ABC being this hard to a Democrat in a long time.

President Joe Biden’s top political advisers are bracing for big election losses in November

abcnews.go.com...

As the challenges confronting President Joe Biden intensify, his predictions of a rosy political future for the Democratic Party are growing bolder. The assessments, delivered in speeches, fundraisers and conversations with friends and allies, seem at odds with a country that he acknowledged this week was “really, really down,” burdened by a pandemic, surging gas prices and spiking inflation.

While presidents often try to emphasize the positive, there is a risk in this moment that Biden contributes to a dissonance between Washington and people across the country who are confronting genuine and growing economic pain.

Few of Biden's closest political advisers are as bullish about the party's prospects as the president. In interviews with a half-dozen people in and close to the White House, there is a broad sense that Democrats will lose control of Congress and that many of the party's leading candidates in down-ballot races and contests for governor will be defeated, with Biden unable to offer much help.

The seeming disconnect between Biden's view and the political reality has some in the party worried the White House has not fully grasped just how bad this election year may be for Democrats.

“I don’t expect any president to go out and say, ‘You know what, 'We’re going to lose the next election,’” said Will Marshall, president and founder of the Progressive Policy Institute, which is in regular contact with the White House’s policy team. What might serve Biden well instead, Marshall said, would be “a sober sense of, ’Look, we’re probably in for a rough night in November and our strategy should be to remind the country what’s at stake.’”

I think rather than continuing to promote division the better tactic would be to admit what a mess our country is in, call for patriotism and unity to get us through- and maybe a plan that gives a tiny ray of hope. An eighteen cent cut in gas tax isn't going to be seen as anything but a wealthy-minded total disconnect from We, the People.

I'm wondering who is still burdened by the pandemic. Everyone I know has adopted a "live with it" kind of attitude, and it is specifically the inflation that is getting in the way of their living.

He’s okay at least his balance is still intact Bike fail

I love this site, the knowledge, history and everything I learned. But it’s taught me one thing, we (people with the ability to critically think and reason) are in it alone. Regardless of political party or whatever; we are FUBAR, because this world is led and followed by simpletons……


The president of the “free world” literally has been caught in numerous scandals with endless actual evidence; as well as his son….. been caught beyond any reasonable doubt of sinking this freedom ship into oblivion and all we do is keep shouting truths into a funnel that leads directly into our own ears…….

The only thing left to do is enjoy life, be present with whomever your partner or family is and just live life. Anything else is futile.

Biden's optimism is rooted in BDSM. He says the PAIN inflation is inflicting on Americans makes him feel cheery.

From what I've seen (which admittedly isn't much. I don't pay much attention to this Idiot-in-Chief),, Biden doesn't actually 'think' anything... ever. He merely pretends to 'think' whatever it is that he is TOLD to 'think'.

Sounds quite similar to the general outlook people have towards the 'Flu'.

Joe Biden is the Ice Cream Man Right? Every wonder why we see him eating Ice Cream all the time?

OP, I think you misspelled "delusion" in your post title. It starts with a D, not an O.

Quoting Alfred E Neuman: "Who me worry?"
Quotin Biden: "We have the most comprehensive election fraud organization in history"
As sure as the depends he wears will protect him he knows elections are in the bag.
They could run rabid animals for office and guarantee results.
