If the election were to be held today Joe Biden would lose, and lose in a historic fashion.

As he should, of course. It would be his own fault, wouldn’t it? I’ve grown exhausted of discussing and considering all the ways Joe Biden’s administration and the weak, feckless leadership of the House and Senate have failed the American people. Frankly though, I’m sure my frustration is absolutely nothing compared to what many of the organizers in states like Georgia, Arizona, Michigan, and Wisconsin must be feeling. Georgia in particular. Those activists moved mountains to not only get that man elected, but deliver the Senate to the Democratic Party as well.

What have they gotten in return?

Under Joe Biden’s leadership, Americans couldn’t even get a $15 federal minimum wage.

Not one, not two, but eight Democratic Senators voted against it.

Under his leadership the child tax credit expired, plunging millions of children back into poverty. Of course, there’s also the fact that they have failed to deliver universal pre-k, robust climate legislation, student debt relief…they couldn’t even get voting rights legislation passed.

We’ve been over it before so many times, right?

We’ve heard it all.

But now it seems, questions of whether or not Joe Biden should run for re-election appear to be spreading.

Richard Luscombe with The Guardian writes:

“The leftwing congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Sunday refused to endorse Joe Biden for another run at the White House, adding to growing anxiety in Democratic circles over the president’s ability to run in and win the 2024 election.

The powerful progressive New Yorker said she could not commit to supporting Biden during an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union, saying she was more focused on trying to preserve Democrats’ congressional majority in November’s midterms.

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get to it,” Ocasio-Cortez said when asked directly if she would support Biden…”
