    Consumers getting ripped off by credit card companies is an issue, and if Democrats are smart, they’ll be making a big deal out of this. I doubt they’re that smart unfortunately.

          I mean, there are historical roots for why the dems don’t run primaries against an incumbent. The last time they did, we ended up with Reagan winning in a landslide. Not defending Biden as a candidate, but there’s definitely a reason why the dems don’t run against a sitting president.
