Wtf is/are retail politics?

Meeting with people on a small scale to discuss politics and justify your positions.

Man I’m glad I asked.

I couldn’t figure out anything other than retail like retail store.

Well, that's the metaphor it's going for. It's 'retail', going in for small amounts of voters, rather than 'wholesale', going in for large amounts.

Does that mean I can demand to see the manager?

The thing about retail politics is we just saw a republican primary where everyone was doing retail politics EXCEPT the guy who easily won. I hope Biden's team is smarter than that.
