According to a Wall Street Journal report, the Biden Administration’s trillion-dollar spending spree on wasteful green policy initiatives isn’t resonating with voters; they just don’t care.
So much for running to the far left.
From WSJ:
President Biden has done more to address climate change than any of his predecessors. So far, voters don’t seem to care.
The Biden campaign and a collection of progressive groups are trying to change that. They believe the president’s record on climate change can boost his popularity with young voters.
The strategy is risky because climate has never been a priority with voters. And it is unclear whether climate policies could reverse the deep skepticism many young people feel toward Biden. Recent Wall Street Journal polls have found that Biden’s support among young people is shrinking compared with 2020 amid concerns about the president’s age and his support for Israel’s war against Hamas.
Their first big challenge is to tell voters what Biden has accomplished. Paris Thompson, 19, of Philadelphia, said Biden hasn’t done enough on climate change: “Since he’s been president, I don’t think anything has changed.” A Democrat, Thompson said she is considering voting for independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Biden’s controversial climate crusade includes attempts to ban household appliances and prop up a struggling EV market despite lack of consumer interest.
