He explains what is going on in the effort to suppress the votes of poor and minority groups. He says that the Democratic party leadership and Joe Biden are avoiding taking the step of abolishing the filibuster and passing stronger voting rights laws, thinking that they can out-organize the Republicans and get out a large vote like they did in 2020.

I am afraid that a couple of guys mentioned on this page, from England and from Sri Lanka, respectively, have a better and more realistic grasp of modern USA politics than does the Delaware guy who’s worked in DC for 48 years.

“thinking that they can out-organize the Republicans and get out a large vote”
The GOP got their largest vote EVER in 2020 even despite a pandemic. Trump would have comfortably won in ANY previous election, despite his handling of the pandemic.
Not for the first time, I fear the Dems are kidding themselves… and only themselves.

sonofrojblake, that’s rather inane; Biden got even more votes, so he would also have comfortably won in ANY previous election.
