Excellent comments, Mike. Messaging is so important, and the corporate media is not helpful, for example today's NYT about Biden's unpopularity. Pushing him out now is in nobody's best interest except Republicans, in my opinion--and i have plenty of differences with him. I don't trust the Times to have the best interest of Americans in mind, sadly.

I'm not so sure that that all of the gerrymandering puts the House in the bag for the G💀P now that it's becoming increasingly clear that they are aiming to supplant democracy w/ an ugly mix of fascism & theocracy. IMO, Biden's low numbers reflect his inability to keep Manchin & Sinema from blocking most of his agenda w/ their duplicitous defense of the filibuster, the true purpose of which is to give de facto control of the Senate to McReptile. Biden is now viewed as weak bc in his hands, the levers of power are useless, even w/ regard to reining in two rogue traitors of his own party. If he had control of a true 50% of the Senate, the Dem base would be singing his praises. Now people are looking around for a metaphorical godfather who is not afraid to do whatever is necessary to keep this country from devolving into the United States of Afghanistan. Sometimes you have to break a few knees to keep your Republic, lol.
