On social media, the Biden campaign has been doing a lot of "four years ago today..." to remind voters of Trump's worst moments during the beginning of COVID.
Later this month and into the summer, I'm sure they will do a lot of posts about how Trump handled the mass protests.
Not sure how effective it will be, but I think it's a good strategy
It's a good strategy. It shouldn't be necessary, but clearly Americans need Trump's handling of the pandemic, and other nightmares from his first term, pounded in their heads incessantly.
This won’t work when it comes to younger voters. Younger voters don’t know anything before Trump. When Covid hit, they were just kids. Trump was a figure in the distance.
All they know now, is what they know now. And it’s in their view, Biden’s establishment persona. And Gaza. The economy.
18 year olds remember being 14. It's not like they were babies in 2020.
Anyway, vibecession is a great way to put it. The vibes are just bad; simple as. I find myself, emotionally, caring remarkably little about this election, even though I know it is objectively extremely important that Biden win and will do everything in my power to help that happen. Even my Trumpy acquaintances seem weirdly demoralized and unconcerned, and those people normally treat everything with about the degree of urgency of a Nancy Pelosi SMS message. Bad vibes!
I wonder when the next election that people care about will happen.
