Your information is out dated. Biden is now leading in many polls.

Biden leads Trump in Wisconsin and is tied in Pennsylvania and Michigan, new poll shows

And not sure what you are talking about with inflation? There is no strong rise in inflation!

Inflation is only 3.2%, so only a slight rise and the economy is doing really well with a strong rise in GDP, and employment.

7 Reasons the U.S. Economy Is Among the Strongest in the G7

President Biden is currently behind in the polls, especially in swing States such as AZ, GA, PA, MI, WI, NV. There is no denying that. Yes, the election is still 7 months away and a lot can happen between now and then.

I feel team Biden and many Democrats are growing very complacent, thinking that once Trump gets convicted of some of his indictments, everything will change for the better.

I do not agree.

I think Biden is very unpopular due to the strong rise in inflation. Plus, many who are lower middle income and middle income feel alienated from the Biden Administration when they are told that the economy is great and resilient. The Reagan Democrats are sending a clear message to Joe Biden that they are not better off now than they were 4 years ago. In fact, they are taking additional part time jobs to make ends meet. They are struggling, no question about that.

I think Biden needs to confront the middle class, show some empathy and explain to them that inflation primarily surged as a result of Trump shutting down the economy in 2020. He also needs to explain what he is trying to do reduce further the rise in inflation.

One can argue that inflation has come down, but the previous surge in inflation is still intact and Biden is being blamed for that.

Tactics need to be changed by the DNC and team Biden or Trump will win in November.
