Polls have also shown Biden’s support slipping among Black and ethnic minority voters, who helped drive his 2020 election win against Trump.

Analysts say Biden’s best hope now is a simple but quite specific number: that wages continue to rise faster than prices as they have done since April of last year, allowing consumers to feel that their wallets are fuller.

    We need to change the menu.

    We need to change the whole fucking restaurant tbh

    Remember, your kids and neighbors have to eat whatever meal you choose too.

    And I do too. I’m not far removed from this. My husband is a first-gen immigrant, I’m gay, I have family being detained by our fascist state, and family who are trans. I don’t know if I have the privilege to keep serving them stale lima beans, when the stale lima beans are slowly killing them. I desperately need a new meal.

      You have an obligation to do that, until there’s a better choice.

      In the meantime, we work on changing the restaurant. But until we do that, don’t feel guilty at all about choosing the better of two options!

      Last time Trump got elected everyone got off their ass next time.

      Maybe it’s time to take the nasty medicine to cure the disease.
