When it comes to the socio-economic status of Kennedy supporters, those making over $100,000 annually tend to be his strongest supporters.
Biden’s reckless economic policies, decision to leave the border wide open, and his disastrous foreign policy in Ukraine are actions that merit him a primary challenger, and a right-wing nationalist opponent, for that matter, in the general election. He must be relieved of the burden of holding higher office for his policy dereliction.
