Bidenomics is a success. President Biden is using the powers of Democracy, through legislation and spending priorities, to expand opportunities throughout the middle class. Low wage earns are earning more; union jobs are growing; inflation is down; college debt is being forgiven.
Democracy can guide capitalism toward a more healthy future. Some call this Democratic Capitalism.
Democracy guiding capitalism. Simple. Europeans understand this priority. Democracy first, ensuring basic rights and responsibilities. Capitalism therefore succeeds for the many, not just the few.
Can’t wait to watch the new video and yesterday’s interview about abortion in Florida. I’m returning from vacation and getting spun up and ready to get back to work.
“Foreign policy and national security are the most important issue for 5% of 18-29 year olds in this credible poll, with inflation, jobs and the economy, abortion, health care, climate change and education coming in higher.”
William He,the young dynamic student and founder of Dream for America spoke to my activist group last w-end and indicated his (somewhat more informal) polling reflected similar concerns for younger voters.
They are also part of the coalition endorsing Students for Biden/Harris. D4A is on multiple social media platforms, including Truth Social,so please amplify/share /support if you’re able.📣
We have young and dynamic William He.💙 They have Roseanne Barr..…”please drop out of college because it’s going to ruin your lives.”🤯
It was great to meet with the group last night and hear in greater detail the direction things are going. Time to give Ruben Gallego a bit more support and to focus our energies on disseminating the facts and stats of this administration.
Such a pleasure to listen to the likely scenarios as u say rather than predictions or fake polls. I know here i will get the real data! Your intuitive reasoning is excellent.
The leave it blank campaign got 12% in NY. That’s more than most third party candidates. One was mine. I’m 67. Not only young people are unhappy with the U.S. supporting and funding the destruction of Gaza. That said, I work hard in my very liberal small city to get people to understand that, regardless of how passionate we are about that issue, we MUST support Democrats including President Biden or we will be enabling a far right authoritarian project that will cause more harm with less opportunity to affect change. My hope is that many who voted a blank ballot did so to make a point but, like me, understand the stakes and would not do that in the general election. But it’s not a given.
Hi, I love your encouragement. I'm an African American woman in my 60's. I am hearing so many lies from Fox that seem to be seeping into African American communities, highly educated people, strong Dems, always voters. Whenni talk to them,,they are not fox news watcher. This is scary to me. I think we have to pay attention to that. For example, things are too expensive under Biden, my personal economy was better under Trump. I do point out the things Biden has done but they don't seem to believe me
The thing I don't see discussed much is how much Rethug oligarchs are pouring into the election. Are the Dems going to be outspent by the gazillionaire MAGAs out there? Yes, I agree that we're doing better as a country than we have in a long, long time, but if the ads and disinformation start turning peoples' heads, all the good news in the world won't help. Hope I'm wrong.
In 2020 and 2022, I campaigned remotely for AZ. This year, I'd like to focus on NV. (I live in a blue district in CA, so my time and energy are better spent in swing state races. I opt to mainly stay in the same region for both familiarity and scheduling reasons, though I've called into VA, WI and NY-03.
*** Will you be organizing any efforts for Biden and Sen. Rosen in the coming weeks and months that I can participate in?
While I agree that Bidenomics is a success, this may not be the feeling by many of the electorate. Why is this? I think my analysis below may explain this.
I think the main issue is crystallized in this graph below. It plots the change in median annual household income (inflation corrected) for different races/ethnicities.
You can see that for every race/ethnic group, there was a large increase in median annual income (inflation corrected) each year between 2012-2020. Of note, the total increase for the whole period from 2012 to 2020 was, for
White: 21%
Black: 25%
Asian: 26%
Hispanic: 29%
(the largest single year increase during this period was 2018-2019; ~8-10% increase)
These are huge increases! I feel this contributes much to the ‘vibe’ issue. Maybe people remember 2020 not by how badly Trump botched COVID, but how good they felt economically.
I’m not sure how to address this, (maybe you folks have ideas?) but I think understanding how people feel economically, particularly comparing 2020 to now, is a start.
I am an X user, and strive to shine my proverbial flashlight on the maga Conspiracy clan, and their strategy when I see it. And its important to point out that I believe they know they are going to lose this year. And their plan is to once again point out the election was stolen. Heres how:
From Elon Musk to Red Wave Press to maga Congress people, they are already espousing that the Democrats are allowing non Citizens across the border by the millions, and grooming them to vote for Democrats.
This is their fail safe plan. They have made it clear to their sheep who buy anything they tell them, that the immigration policy we currently have is designed to bring in illegal votes for Democrats. What this means when Biden wins is more maga chaos over another BS conspiracy. Please shine as many flashlights on this new conspiracy as possible. Thank you.
New registrations should improve the poll results. FT6 is hard at work trying to expand the base-- just added Florida as a target. No other organization is dedicated to register new Democrats. New voters will win key races for school boards, state legislatures, the US House, Senate and White House – pass voting rights and abortion rights – and crush Trump fascism once and for all.
At $1 per new voter, support can literally swing elections. The goal is to raise $3M to deliver 3M new Democrats and independents.
We can flip if we meet out target. Any advice on how to pick up more volunteers? Donations?

We're all working hard but you are able to move the needle all on your own, in a way that most of can't. Thank you!
My offer to gift five subscriptions to those in need is still open. Simon, feel free to sign some people up
as subscribers and I'll cover the cost.

Josh Stein polling ahead of Robinson the Racist by 8 points? Even for a poll that’s great! Keep it up Simon!
