President Joe Biden will travel to Michigan on Tuesday and walk the picket line with members of the United Auto Workers union, he announced Friday, a trip that comes after the president faced political pressure to ramp up his public support for the union members.
I think the photo op is still important given he is campaigning, and his likely opponent is gonna be Trump again. The more he can show face at these things, the better.
I agree with your first statement, though.
Democrats placating political energy instead of fostering it is what led to Trump in the first place. More of the same does nothing to diminish that threat.
