Democrats have been over performing in the only indicator that matters: Votes. They over performed in the midterms, in referenda, in special elections, and in state races across the country but especially in battleground states. National polls can’t capture that.

Their only purpose is to give TV pundits something to talk about and media outlets clickbait headlines. Ignore them. Follow The Hopium Chronicles on Substack for a more accurate picture of Democratic electoral performance.

There’s a lot of work to do and we need to ensure we do everything we can to defeat fascism at home and abroad. It can be demoralizing if you just pay attention to national polls. But political polling is largely broken. Ignore it.

Pay attention to the wins. It’s important to recognize the success we’re having. We ARE winning!

I am really going to enjoy embarrassing these "experts" in 2024. It's getting out of hand.

The second post is downright Orwellian. It:

a) Asserts more young and non-white voters in a presidential election will hurt Democrats.

b) Presents the economy as a weakness of Biden's.

c) Argues higher turnout in a Presidential election will hurt Democrats.
In response to Christopher Bouzy.

In response to Anton Brakhage.
a) and c) are complete reversals of conventional political wisdom and precedent.

b) is just a bald-faced lie- more precisely a repetition of the Republicans' lie, repeated constantly in hopes that if enough voters believe the economy is a weakness for Biden, it will become true.

In response to Anton Brakhage.
Wasserman also reveals his bigotry by condescendingly asserting younger, non-college-educated, and non-white, voters will make a more simplistic decision on voting.

In summary, ridiculous denial from a bigot who seems desperate to believe P01135809 will be PotUS again- and to help bring it about.
