While keeping in mind the old adage “It’s not the votes that count, but who counts the votes,” Democrats are absolutely freaking out about what a dumpster fire Joe Biden is heading into the 2024 election.
According to Politico, “A pervasive sense of fear has settled in at the highest levels of the Democratic Party over President Joe Biden’s reelection prospects, even among officeholders and strategists who had previously expressed confidence about the coming battle with Donald Trump.”
And while Democrats have spent 2024 on a “joyless and exhausting grind,” now, nearly five months away from the election, “anxiety has morphed into palpable trepidation,” according to more than a dozen party leaders and operatives who spoke with the outlet.
“You don’t want to be that guy who is on the record saying we’re doomed, or the campaign’s bad or Biden’s making mistakes. Nobody wants to be that guy,” said one Democratic operative close to the White House, adding that Biden’s terrible polling “are creating the freakout.”
“This isn’t, ‘Oh my God, Mitt Romney might become president.’ It’s ‘Oh my God, the democracy might end.’” the source added, dramatically.
The freakout comes as Trump leads in 5 key states, while young and nonwhite voters are shifting allegiances:
Strategists catching the vapors
And while the White House isn’t yet facing reality, Democratic strategists are telling it like it is…
But Democratic critics of the campaign’s approach — while agreeing that abortion should be a winning issue — said they’re challenged when pressed by friends to make the case for why Biden will win.
“There’s still a path to win this, but they don’t look like a campaign that’s embarking on that path right now,” said Pete Giangreco, a longtime Democratic strategist who’s worked on multiple presidential campaigns. “If the frame of this race is, ‘What was better, the 3.5 years under Biden or four years under Trump,’ we lose that every day of the week and twice on Sunday.” -Politico
And then we have this suspected offworlder, former Clinton strategist James Carville, who says Democrat messaging is full of shit:
Pollster Nate Silver, who was more or less unpersoned by the Democrats for getting 2016 wrong and has since become moderately redpilled, shreds Democrat messaging that the economy is ackshually doing great, and people complaining about inflation are out of touch.
Silver’s FiveThirtyEight has Biden’s average job rating at 38.4%, vs. 38.1% on March 7 – suggesting that whatever the Biden campaign has been attempting isn’t working…
Whatever the Biden campaign has been doing over the past two months — and it’s a lot of activity, including $25 million in swing-state ad spending, according to AdImpact — it has had only a limited effect. According to FiveThirtyEight, Biden’s average job-approval rating on March 7, the date of his State of the Union Address, was 38.1 percent. As of Friday, it’s 38.4 percent. -Politico
Politico then notes that Trump has been eating away at Biden’s lead in ‘safe’ blue states, conducting what they called “psychological warfare” in New York, California and New Jersey (dramatic!).
Trump, meanwhile, has already started his incursion into safe blue states. His campaign’s psychological warfare in New York, California and New Jersey — where House districts will determine control of Congress’ lower chamber — is spiking Democrats’ already-elevated blood pressure.
“New York Democrats need to wake up,” said Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine. “The number of people in New York, including people of color that I come across who are saying positive things about Trump, is alarming.”
Meanwhile, Trump is crushing Biden when it comes to fundraising – having raised $25 million last month, not including a record-setting $50.5 million haul from an event in Palm Beach, Florida.
“The list of why we ‘could’ win is so small I don’t even need to keep the list on my phone,” one Democratic adviser told the outlet.
And of course, the Biden campaign is playing dumb (or they’re just dumb. We’ll go with that.):
“Trump’s photo-ops and PR stunts may get under the skin of some very serious D.C. people as compelling campaigning, but they will do nothing to win over the voters that will decide this election,” said campaign spokesman Kevin Munoz. “The work we do every day on the ground and on the airwaves in our battleground states — to talk about how President Biden is fighting for the middle class against the corporate greed that’s keeping prices high, and highlight Donald Trump’s anti-American campaign for revenge and retribution and abortion bans — is the work that will again secure us the White House.”
Keep telling yourself that, Kevin.

Dems and fear go together like peanut butter and chocolate.
More like flies and shit.
Dems and fear go together like peanut butter and chocolate. Daddy gov’t is there to protect them.
afraid you wont save enough, heres SS
afraid the poor will starve, here’s welfare
afraid you cant control yourself, here’s abortion.
etc….
I don’t recall asking for SS … or even being given the option of declining the mandatory taking from my paychecks for 40+ years … whereas welfare comes not from one’s efforts, but from others’ pocketbooks by decree.
And unease is settling in for Trumpeteers.
All true; however, we know it is true in spades. Why keep hammering on it when there is fresh points to make about what is wrong and how to right it. There is a target rich environment out there both positive and negative forBiden. How about some dramatic readings from Ashly’s diary or scenes from Hunter’s lap top, Joe checking watch at ceremony for Afghan service members, recreate some of his lies about his background, if the real film is not available have voice over of his 1970s and 80s statements?
No punches are being pulled against DJT by the dems. We will hear about his soon to be announced felon conviction until the cows come home or the vote harvesters deliver a other 3AM surprise.
So who do the Democrats want? One of five losers that nothing will change from having puppet Biden President:
When you can cheat and get away with it, it doesn’t matter how low the “candidate’s” approval rating is.
Civil War 2.0 on deck. Get ready for left wing cities to burn.
Civil War 2.0 on deck. Get ready for left wing cities to
burnbe cleansed!Oh gosh what a pity , just let me know when open season is a thing .
Ironically, it will be the left wingers who are going to be the ones burning down their own cites. As is always the case. A sort off Hamon’s Reward.
And after the leftists destroy their own stuff … guess where they’re going afterward … and whose stuff they’re going to either take or destroy — or both.
The path to 270 runs through the counting centers in Philly, Detroit, Milwaukee, Vegas, Phoenix & Atlanta, just as it did in ’20.
and don’t you fret one bit, TN; irrespective of any and all polls – D0m1ny0n’s got this.
Correct. Nowadays most of the actual (as opposed to the apparent) vote fraud is done using the electronic voting machines. The apparent vote fraud for Biden in 2020, i.e., the much-publicized ballot stuffing, was done for PR purposes. They were flaunting the fact that they can select whoever they want, and they were also deliberately trying to provoke the reaction that ultimately led to the January 6 setup. The electronic voting machines will select Trump as the winner in November.
And the back rooms of the US Post Office, where the Return to.Sender Absentee “Ballots” are repurposed into “votes”
If the old adage “It’s not the votes that count, but who counts the votes,” is so important, why am I reading this drivel instead of about the fight being waged in counties across the country to replace election commissioners with Constitutional Conservatives to assure an accurate vote count? Is is because no one is waging that battle (other than Soros)?
Focus on what is important. Election commissioners are more important in effecting change than who is running for Senate or Congress. Your local DA is probably one of the most important people in your community but I’ll wager that you can’t name your local DA without looking it up. And what about judges? When was the last time you made sure that your local judge was a Constitutional Conservative?
Either change who counts the votes, an who adjudicates vote disputes, or start hanging politicians. Choice is yours but get started. I prefer replacement to removal by force but none of us may have any choice in another 4 months.
Why is TBP posting all these write ups about trump and Biden?? They are irrelevant figureheads and not worthy of all this space and attention here. Wtf is going on here? Trump and Biden are distractions to where all arguments are directed to die in the endless left vs right paradigm bullshit. Get it together.
Why are you complaining instead of writing an article & submitting it?
Here it is. They will choose RFKjr.
Biden is too arrogant to step aside. He actually has convinced himself that he “won” 2020.
Trump’s photo-ops and PR stunts may get under the skin of some very serious D.C. people as compelling campaigning, but they will do nothing to win over the voters that* will decide this election,” said campaign spokesman Kevin Munoz. “
*The choice of the word that over whom,
speaks loudly to democrats viewing voters as things instead of people.
Yes, the Red tsunami will save us jut like in 2022.
LOLOLOLOL…
Why are they worried when they can now cheat by mail and print enough “ballots” to “win” and get away with it?
