Don’t candidates usually get a boost after their conventions?
They do if there is some positivity in what they have to say. They do if their performance is even slightly interesting.
I don't go by polls because for one, questions are asked with a desired outcome. Two, polls mean nothing several months before an election. A major event could make those polls do a 180 overnight. Three, polls are only as good as the honestly of the participants.
But the message is what needs to be focused on here, and many people do not know Biden's message, and won't until the debates when Trump brings them up.
Biden wants to destroy the suburbs. If you are a suburbanite and vote for Biden, you are ignorant of his plans for you, or completely stupid. There is no reason any sane person would support a candidate that wants to cut their property value in half while at the same time, drastically increase crime in their area.
While the Democrats are starting to backpedal on this issue, Biden wants to kill our energy supply to replace it with much more costly and much less unreliable green energy. Look at what's going on in CA with the rolling blackouts.
We need jobs more than ever and will in the future. Biden promises to burden job creators with higher taxes thus limiting that job creating ability. Plus he wants to resuscitate Obama Care making coverage for employees mandated, or they get fined.
Then there are issues like closing down the country until Covid goes away which would kill tens of thousands of businesses giving us limited access to products we need.
So these poll numbers may not look good for Biden, but it will be tenfold if Biden and Trump have their first debate.
