Far-left? People on the centre left are freaking out, because what used to be the far left is now the centre left, and the far left is now the insane people who used to be locked in asylums.
You know who’s actually freaking out? Moderate older Americans who are terrified of the direction Trump is leading the country and swinging towards Biden in numbers that could deliver him the election. I mean, if you care about statistics and stuff.
“I cannot—I cannot—vote for this man.”

Surveys since the two conventions, and the Trump campaign’s blitz to hang urban riots and violence around Democrats’ necks, largely show Biden’s strength among seniors remaining steadfast. A CNN national poll released in early September saw Biden leading among the 65-plus set by 17 points, while a Quinnipiac national poll saw him leading by 4. In some recent state polls where Biden’s margins are tightening, meanwhile, seniors are no longer a bonus demographic contributing to a prospective Biden landslide—they’re the ones responsible for Biden holding onto his lead. An early September Quinnipiac poll of Florida, in which Biden led overall by 3 points, saw him leading among the 65-plus by 10; a Monmouth poll of Pennsylvania, in which Biden led overall by 4, showed him with an 11-point edge among seniors.
