Brooks: Biden Can’t Get Re-Elected, Keep Majorities ‘on the Basis of His Own Accomplishments’ – Raising ‘Saliency of Trump’ Is Smart

Ian Hanchett 8 Jan 2022

On Friday’s “PBS NewsHour,” New York Times columnist David Brooks said that President Joe Biden does not have good enough approval ratings for Democrats to keep their majorities in 2022 or get re-elected in 2024, “on the basis of his own accomplishments.” And therefore, “raising the saliency of Trump is probably the smart thing to do” and “a key part of” what he can do to keep Democrats in office.

Brooks stated, “Democrats are going to try to win — keep that — their majorities in 2022. Joe Biden presumably is going to try to keep the presidency or at least have a Democrat in the presidency in 2024. His approval ratings are not high enough to do that on the basis of his own accomplishments. And, frankly, he didn’t win the presidency the first time because people loved Joe Biden. He won it because people really disliked Donald Trump. And so, raising the saliency of Trump is probably the smart thing to do. Now, there are clear limits to that, as we learned in the Virginia gubernatorial race, when the Democrats tried to tie Youngkin to Trump and it didn’t work. So, I don’t think it’s the only thing he can do to keep Democrats in office. But it’s certainly a key part of it.”

No, Comrade Hanchett.
ol' white joe won because The Party had a highly efficient "underground election apparatus" in place in the critical states, and because the Republican party has yet to make an effort to uncover it or prevent it from operating in the future...

Amen @Fishrrman  also the SCOTUS blinked and looked the other way!
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
