Most Democratic voters hope for change at the top of the ticket and Americans don't take the president [at] his word when he talks about his son Hunter.

There is deep rooted dissatisfaction with the incumbent and the direction he is taking the country. There are even deeper doubts about if Mr. Biden is up to the job again.

This is setting off alarm bells inside the Biden campaign in the White House. Overall, his approval rating is down now at 39 percent approved, so more than six in 10 Americans disapprove of the job he's doing. And you see he's been hovering here for a little bit, Dana, since the spring.

And we asked this open-ended question of Democrats and Democratic leaners. What is your biggest concern about a Biden candidacy? It's not even close, Dana. 49 percent say it's his age, 7 percent mental sharpness, 7 percent health ability to do the job.

(Not that he seems hellbent on starting WWIII or is sending money to Ukraine instead of Hawaii?)

Most Democratic voters hope for change at the top of the ticket...

But they'll vote against the Republican nominee. Most Democratic voters hope their owners blue team beats the red team, so they can keep hope alive by hoping that their votes mean something more than legitimizing the system they're guaranteed to lose with, no matter which of their owners parties are assigned the task of managing their expectations for the next four to eight years.

We don't win shit by losing to the "lesser" evil in order to stop the greater one. Our owners wouldn't have bought our former government to protect themselves with if the democratic process wasn't a threat to their business model.

At some point, despite the never ending barrage of FUD disseminated by our owners fear mongering media mouthpieces, you would think people would recognize it for what it is, and start asking themselves, and each other, why our government is hell bent on "othering" every segment of what passes for society in these Corporate States of America, and who that "othering" benefits besides the people behind the curtain of government they hide behind.

Thing is, when I talk with human beings who inhabit the actual meatspace outside the digital world of shills and bots, very few people have any faith and trust in our corrupted system, and even fewer believe their votes are worth the millions spent to harvest them when it comes down to the well being of the average citizen.

Most people I've talked to don't see the utility of wasting their time with the process any longer.

Which makes me wonder if these people are full of shit, or mail in ballots are the new golden egg our owners can buy a few more selection cycles with.

But people are at a loss for what to do about the whole situation, because every person elected that's shown even a modicum of leadership ability has either turned around to lick our owners asses, or met with an untimely death.

It is disheartening, for sure. The thing that keeps me in the game is knowing that they want us to give up.
