DEAR POTUS, YOUR BEING RE-ELECTED OR LOSING IN NOVEMBER IN A LANDSLIDE IS RIDING ON THESE NEXT 12 HOURS
Sir, the only way to prevent your losing in a landslide in November is to give a National Address tonight expressing passionate support of the $600/wk. Federal unemployment benefit through December (Christmas) and your empathy and passionate support for its recipients and their families.
Whether your votes from that group receiving the benefits was 10% or 40% in 2016, if you are perceived to support anything less than the $600, you will most likely lose every single voter from 2016 within those 30 million beneficiaries. For example, if only 10% within that group voted for you in 2016, you are guaranteed to lose most every single vote within that 10%. The impact is not 3 million votes but a 6 million vote swing to Mr. Biden. Just that 10% guarantees a landslide loss for you in November.
Today is the day to please distance yourself from Republicans both in the House and Senate that suggest cutting the benefit to $200. That ensures the same result as it being eliminated. Majority Leader McConnell and others suggest that it keeps people from working. Just exactly where are those jobs in a -34% GDP, Majority Leader McConnell? Mr. President, you cannot align yourself with such a detachment from reality. Mr. President, you cannot associate yourself with such reckless posturing. The urgency for your action today is due not only to the expirations of eviction moratoriums but the need for food. Most everyone can still remember our last $32 trip to Walmart, a trip that needed to sustain us that week.
There is nothing that you can possibly do in the next three months to win should you not today start actively supporting that full $600/wk. extension through Christmas.
People are desperate. Knowing that the extension will pass gives those whom are desperate today the ability to negotiate with their landlords - today (and even relatives and friends if they are so fortunate).
They will have the funds.
Speak to those families the next three months. Give those 30m hope for jobs. Be specific. With those 30m looking upon you favorably, you are a winner come election night.
But those 30m need both hope and their dignities preserved today.
Thank you, Sir.
