Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

@return2ozma well, when you place your administration as a patron of despicable foreign policy, and the young people who voted for you (or would vote for you) are protesting that foreign policy, how is this a surprise?
It's not looking good for Biden. I don't know how he can even recover from the Israel-Palestine war.
Luckily he's facing Trump who was worse for the country in every way and wants to ramp up the genocide if he's elected.
historically "vote for us because we're not them" is a very ineffective way of winning elections
Trump lost the popular vote twice already while the Dems ran on "we're not them".
and one of those elections he won?
also, during the 2020 campaign, trump's base's biggest complaint was generally that he was running on a platform of "i'm not biden", so i guess both cancelled out
Seems like the main platform for both parties this time is the same "I'm not them". I guess we'll see.
Trump repealed 111 climate change regulations. Biden is enacting new ones.
Trump repealed civil and trans rights. Biden replaced them.
Trump repealed net neutrality. Biden replaced it.
Trump gave corporations and the wealthy larger tax cuts than the working class. Biden is replenishing the deficit off of corporations and the wealthy while cutting taxes for middle and low income workers.
I could go all day, but I think you get the point.
He honestly has a lot to run on. People just like to attribute A LOT of Trump's failures to Biden. And Biden doesn't like to boast. I hope that changes.
trump's platform seems more to be "the election was stolen", which his base believes
biden's base on the other hand is horrifically split over his mishandling of israel, and arguably the demographics that are credited with democratic wins in 2022 are most effected
his poll numbers are in the shitter, and over the last two presidential elections polls have been incorrectly biased towards the democratic candidate
@slurpyslop @return2ozma @Omegamanthethird it's a cheap narrative for an election, but it can work. Trouble this time is that voters' memories are too short to remember just how effed up Cult 45/TFG was.
As a population, we all have the memory of goldfish anymore. People have said that recently about many things, especially around Trump as well.
