27. You Underestimate Joe Sixpack's Ability To Forget All About This
Mon Mar 30, 2020, 10:39 PM
Mar 2020

The election is 7 months away. By then, most people will have forgotten all about this for like 4-5 months. The public's attention span is as short as Trump's fingers.

However, if Biden makes it a point to keep hammering on the things going on now, and reminding people how terrible Trump has handled EVERYTHING, then he should win. In particular, he needs to keep reminding folks in Michigan how badly Trump has treated them, and how he accused doctors and nurses of STEALING. It's all on tape. The Biden campaign should have a good half-dozen TV ads of nothing but Trump's own words by now. They should run those on a continuous loop for the next 7 months.
