Should Biden deprioritize Michigan?

[Rhode Islander First, American Second]

No, but he should abandon Wisconsin, which is a lost cause.

How is Wisconsin a lost acuse? He won it in 2020 and elections have been horrible for Republicans ever since then aside from Ron Johnson's re-election.

Leftists in Madison cannot be trusted and Trump has waaay more room to gain in the rural areas than even other Midwestern states.

Has there been any sign of the bottom falling out for Biden in the rurals? It didn't for Tony Evers or Janet Protasiewicz.

Also what about Biden making gains in WOW?

Gains in WOW are a good counter, but they are already so much more Republican than other suburban counties in the region.

Biden always runs behind non-federal candidates in the rurals, and especially in the Driftless.

Michigan is a state that Biden can and needs to win. And he has the UAW behind him.

Not a conversation for February. This early in the cycle, it's worth throwing money everywhere and see what sticks, including in places like TX and OH. Check back on polling in the summer and make triaging decisions then.

Obviously an idiotic idea. Same for Pennsylvania. Same for…

No, but he should abandon Wisconsin, which is a lost cause.

LOL. You seriously believe that writing off the tipping point for both 2016 and 2020 is a remotely smart idea? Where is Biden going to make up the EVs? Georgia is no more likely to back Biden than Wisconsin. A case could be made made for Arizona, but none of the other Trump 2016 states look more promising for Democrats than the former “blue wall” trio. Holding MI/PA/MI is Biden’s surest bet (not that he should ignore Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, or any swing state he carried in 2020).
