... and the libtards are going bat-sh!t nuts over what he has just tweeted - BECAUSE IT IS ALL TRUE!
ARGLE BARGLE RAR! Nate Cohn PAINFULLY honest about why Biden sucks (and why Clinton and Obama did too) in BRUTAL thread and Lefties CAN’T DEAL

Biden sucks, Obama sucks, and Clinton sucks.
Duh.
Ok, so we’re obviously right-leaning and biased, but Nate Cohn isn’t, and his thread? Painful.
Delicious for us, painful for Democrats.
Take a look:
Nate Cohn ~ Biden was supposed to be FDR.
Instead, he's following the playbook of the last half century of politically unsuccessful Democratic presidencies, from LBJ and Clinton to Obama.
The result: only 33% say he's focused on the issues they care about.

From LBJ and Clinton to Obama.
Now you know they’re freaking out reading this.
Heh.
Nate Cohn ~ I cited this recent CBS/YouGov poll several times, and I think it's worth taking a look at if you missed it. Public opinion isn't always straightforward, but Biden's situation isn't really all that complicated.

Nate Cohn ~ To be honest, Biden hasn't had any difficulty passing legislation that's aimed at dealing with immediate challenges / that has a chance to help him politically.
{Cont.} I'm not surprised by the replies of course, but I'll leave this for you to mull:
The last three Dem presidents came into office, pushed big transformative legislative initiatives, found themselves at 45% approval after a year. There may be a political problem with this strategy.
Yeah, they’ve all sucked.
Ok, so Nate isn’t saying that necessarily but we are.
Nate Cohn ~ Many critiques of those presidencies were tactical: With Clinton, the problem was that the bill didn't pass. With Obama, the bill wasn't popular.
With Biden ... it's strategic: these initiatives, disconnected from top issues, don't seem to be what the public really wants.
{Cont.} Once you reach that conclusion about Biden, I do think you have to ask that question about the rest of them--about nearly every Dem term from FDR's second term to today.
{Cont.} The magic of FDR's first term was that the *circumstances* brought an alignment between the public's demands and liberal hopes for bold initiatives, framed as a necessary response to an immediate crisis. Biden had a chance to capture that, and he's lost the thread.
{Cont.} Ask me whether I like cake, I'll say yes--politely (I don't love it to be honest). Bring me a cake if my house is burning, and maybe I won't really approve of your performance.
{Cont.} And remember, almost by definition, the persuadable voters do not necessarily *love* the Democratic agenda, even if they like it. They would be Democrats if they did. That's a major reason why big policy ideological initiatives never really seem to help any president.
Womp womp womp.
Cue the freak out ...
