With their dwindling ability to expand their base, as well as ignoring younger voting blocks (completing losing the Millennials and not doing much to attract Gen Z), as I've been thinking for the last decade, everything has to go right and Democrats have to literally self-destruct for the GOP to win.
One could make the argument that in 2020 (outside of Covid), Trump may have won again given the economy at that time, although far from certain.
Does anyone just have "that feeling" that the stars are aligning again this year? Everything from the economy, inflation, Biden's age, the wars abroad, student protests, voter apathy, Harris, cost of living, etc. is just making a lot of people desperate, angry and vulnerable.
I've been saying for several months now (as have others on here) that the Democrats (like it or not), MUST use abortion as their driving force to ensure women and young voters show up to vote. It worked in 2022, it worked in "pocket", one-off elections since, including 2023, and I believe it's the key for 2024.
There's been signs in the last month that talking about Dobbs again re-energized some and moved the polls towards Biden.
Thoughts? are the stars just aligning, too early to tell, or total nonsense?

in 2022, Gop won the "national vote" by 3 (I think) so abortion not so effective (but I agree that it gives them a few points) and, at the presidential level, with much larger turnout, it won't be enough to save Biden
