What drives it down is Biden's apparent inability to toot his own horn more than, maybe, once a month to a group under 12 people. Trump does it every day and media is delighted to make sure everybody sees him. Trump also tells everybody that they are getting screwed - EVERY day! They believe him because he is the only person telling it as, they believe, it is. Never forget, the American voting public is not, everything considered, particularly bright when it comes to their own best interests. They would, evidently, trust a lying piece of (you know) because he is, basically, the only one that will tell them anything! (there is a reason I whine a lot about Biden, as you know. Its interesting, you do too but you are a lot more kind and tend to do it with numbers but it all is the same thing in the end and both of us are (along with anybody else with thoughts), pretty much, ignored by the Dems who have more important stuff to talk about (not necessarily do anything))
Its really unfortunate, makes no sense, is frustrating, and, as far as I am concerned makes no sense. I suspect there are lots of folks that wish Biden would step up to the plate but its not gonna happen. A lot of those folks are now working at setting Biden to one side, not because he is a bad president, its because he just doesn't want, along with the Dems, to actually understand that its their job to win and they all seem to have something better to do. There seems to be a lot of the money folks who, it they do not change their ways are not gonna see any of their money go away for nothing.
Its just another strange thing, really. The Dems are spending a LOT of money! The problem seems to be is that it seems to be a waste than actually doing something. I am in Washington state. My wife tells me that she actually sees Democratic ads but I have yet to see one. I don't watch TV during the day, however, and she does. She also says that they are very short (I have no idea never having seen one). Since Washington is, pretty much, Democratic state perhaps the Dems are currently doing the same losing thing that another Dem, who ran against Trump did. Which was, basically ignore those thought to be supporters and needed no support. Remember, Trump speaks to EVERYBODY, every freaking day. The Dems? No so much as far as I can tell.
