But you forget, mon ami, that there is evil everywhere under the sun

don't worry, rank-and-file Democrats have convinced themselves that one-on-one voter outreach is actually bad because Bernie only came in second place so it's actually fine

THE GREAT MANBABY SUCCESSOR

https://apnews.com/e0d39d6a7dcc6027de9d8c6c7922077c
WASHINGTON (AP) — Nearly eight years after he was last on the ballot, Barack Obama is emerging as a central figure in the 2020 presidential election.

Democrats are eagerly embracing Obama as a political wingman for Joe Biden, who spent two terms by his side as vice president. Obama remains the party’s most popular figure, particularly with black voters and younger Democrats, and Biden’s presidential campaign is planning for him to have a highly visible role in the months to come.


Lol biden's campaign sucks so hard they have to get the previous president in to make him look good. Jfc

Obama has his work cut out for him. Too bad he's ruining anything left of his legacy when this blows up in his face.

Yes, and the Trump campaign smartly focused their fire on Hillary being garbage. If they're looking at focusing on attacking Joe Biden or Barack Obama, and they choose Obama, they're making a mistake.

so Obama staking his reputation to Hillary couldn't save her, but it will Biden?

I mean what has the response to Trump making it a referendum on Obama from the Dems, a one word text? Just sitting back and assuming the Obama legacy is gonna carry the day seems doomed to fail when it's being executed by a party that has yet to do anything about the Obama to Trump voters that delivered him the Dem firewall

I never said Obama is gonna save Joe Biden, I'm saying running your campaign against "functional brained non-rapist" Barack Obama instead of focusing on "ancient mushbrained rapist" Joe Biden would be an error, and anyone who doesn't realize that needs a reality check re: the general public's fairly positive view of Obama.

Trump's not worried about the public, he's worried about his base, because he's better at politics than the Dems

between the astroturfed lockdown protests and going hard on Obama as well as Biden, they're gonna be fired the gently caress up to vote for him, and this is all coming AFTER he got better turnout in a bunch of states uncontested than the Dems did in an actual primary

Dems clearly are content to have just beaten Sanders and are phoning it in, jesus am I glad that I'm done with them and my sanity is no longer tied to this gaggle of donor glad-handing sociopaths

Turnout is not a problem for the R's. Since 04 theres only been a 3M vote shift between their highest turnout for president, (Trump, beating out Bush by about half a million) and their lowest (McCain). Dems have a 10M vote gap between Obama and Kerry. If you're an R strategist, you want the clearly more finicky Dem voters thinking of drooly rapey corn pop listen fat Joe Biden as much as possible for the next 6 months.

The R's are showing up for those primaries because the Rs always show, for every election, because they are hateful old fucks with nothing to do.

I don't really think the dems are throwing the election so much as they know that making people look at/hear from/think about their candidate will only harm their chances, so they see laying low as the only option. They're shitfuckers who would rather lose with Biden than win with Bernie, but they would prefer to win with Biden than lose with Biden. Winning campaigns look better on the consultancy resume. "We dragged Joe Biden across the finish line, think what we can do for you!"
