Apparently you haven’t been paying attention to Biden’s picks for judges, idiot

because those weren’t the demographics that Biden needed to win the 2020 SC democratic primary, after performing dismally in previous states, he limped into SC and desperately needed the endorsement of influential black SC congressman Clayburn (?). Biden threw blacks that bone by making that pledge just before the SC primary. It worked.

If he needed Asians in South Carolina to rejuvenate his struggling campaign, he’d have promised an Asian.

I said struggling before South Carolina. Am I wrong? Let's go by the actual facts, rather than going by your pathetic partisan re-writing of history, shall we?

Iowa was the first state. The results, in order of votes:

1. Sanders
2. Buttogieg
3. Warren
4. Biden (13.7% of the vote)


Then New Hampshire, with results as follows:

1. Sanders
2. Buttigieg
3. Klobuchar
4. Warren
5. Biden (8.3% of the vote!!), one position ahead of Tom Steyer

Then Nevada, results as follows...

1. Sanders (40.5% of vote)
2. Biden (18.9% of vote)

Those were the states before South Carolina, Pete.

I say Biden was struggling at the time.

You deny that.

This might be the most pulverizing yet, of the thousand times you have humiliated yourself here and just been mercilessly bitch slapped.

What are you afraid would have happened, if you just said, "yes Biden was doing poorly before SC"? That's what happened. I'm sorry if you don't like it, but that's what happened.

Do you ever, ever get tired of being so wrong?

Here's the data.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Result...s#Early_states

Biden desperately needed a win in SC. He needed that black congressman to endorse him, and he got that endorsement immediately after promising to nominate a black woman.

From the New York Times...

"Mr. Biden made the promise at a debate in February 2020, just days before facing his Democratic rivals in the South Carolina primary, where Black people make up a large portion of the party’s voters. At the time, his campaign was struggling amid losses in two of the early presidential contests."

Polls?? What polls? not polls. i’m talking about understanding what already happened in the 2020 primaries, not trying to predict the future.

you’re insane.

in this thread, i cited no polls. I said biden did poorly in the first few states in the 2020 primaries, and i provided facts ( not posts) to back that up.

I’m sure your central nervous system would prefer that biden won every state unanimously, starting with Iowa. But facts are facts, whether you happen to like them or not. Biden struggled in the first few states, then just before SC he promised to nominate a black woman, that made Rep Clayburn endorse Biden who then won SC and steamrolled.

That’s what happened. If you don’t like it, it’s still what happened.

And it has nothing whatsoever to do with polling. It’s looking back at what already happened. polls predict the future.

See if you can follow…stating what already happened in the past, and predicting what will happen in the future, are different.

I’m very sorry if that’s too fast for you.

Hearing those Trump voices in your head again, because I didn't say that. I repeated events as they happened.

You're denying verifiable, tangible results of the 2020 primaries.

That's healthy.

pete keeps missing the obvious point regarding polls


most of the sources of these polls spend all of their time trying to convince America that biden is a good president and then they run a poll hoping to see the results of their hard work and their own poll demonstrates that biden sucks

the same sources spent all of their time trying to convince America that trump was a lousy president and then took polls to verify their handiwork


it was understandable that trump polled badly with a constant and daily drumbeat of negativity from the msm,,,

biden however, apparently just sucks

even in Commiefornia

17 February 2022

Biden loses his sheen in the Golden State as new poll finds even in California most voters now disapprove of his job performance and just 47% approve
More voters in California disapprove than approve of Joe Biden's presidency

Joe Biden's poll numbers are continuing to plummet even in the Blue state of California, with more voters disapproving than approving of his current job performance.
