He isn't exactly putting forward any life altering vision, fake or not, for the working class this time around, like he did in 2016. Nafta, TPP, China, bringing back manufacturing jobs, coal, better cheaper healthcare, revitalizing the military, immigration, the wall ect.

His campaign is essentially more of the same with nothing on his populist agenda, no real wall progress, sweet FA on healthcare, and none of the rhetoric around the working class. All he has from the above are a few items on the trade agenda that everyone knew is superficial, or can't see tangible results in their own lives. Add that to the pandemic boat anchor and I think he's bleeding more support than Biden is from the left.

That's a good point. He's replaced the "I'm going to stop the Mexicans and other foreigners from stealing your jobs" talk with plain old racism against Americans.
