Biden vs. Trump — how could this be a tossup?

Democrats ought to rally behind president’s accomplishments

Re “Biden’s real reelection problem isn’t his age. It’s his waning popularity.” by Omer Aziz (Ideas, Nov. 5): The problem with Joe Biden is not Biden, it’s us Democrats. We have a marked inability to muster the collective will to enact our core values.

Republicans are very clear on gun rights, small government, and the need for faith in the public square. Democrats are all over the place.

Maybe this is because Democrats are a more urban demographic and more diverse than Republican voters.

I see many yard signs and displays for Donald Trump, whether or not it’s an election year. For Biden, I see nothing of the kind.

Forestalling climate change is one of our core Democratic values, but I have seen Democrats rallying to prevent wind farms and solar arrays. Republicans, in the service of the Second Amendment, are able to accept school shootings, but one lousy wind turbine and we start whining about the view?

Biden may be the most progressive president we have ever had. He also has a half century of experience in government. During his administration, he has signed measures that give deep, far-reaching support to all of the American people. Yet many Democrats probably don’t even know what those accomplishments are.

Unless we want more MAGA, Democrats need to start stepping up, putting out yard signs, and being proud of the Democratic values we hold that support and enhance the community, the country, and the world.

During his administration, Biden has signed measures that give deep, far-reaching support to all of the American people.
