    His only chance is if Dems ran a historically unpopular candidate like Hillary or Biden.

    Kamala is far from perfect, but it’s not exactly a high bar to be better than trump.

      I wouldn’t call Biden historically unpopular. He won once, after all. He didn’t back out because he was unpopular, he backed out because he was not the same candidate that won in 2020.

        Against an incumbent trump… People weren’t voting for Biden, they were voting against trump.

        40 years after his first attempt at running for president.

        If the people wanted Biden as president, it would have been back in the 80s when he was at his peak. He’d have probably been a good president back then.

        Unfortunately his personality got in the way and screaming at reporters that he had a higher IQ and it didn’t matter that he plagiarized campaign speeches or his classwork in lawschool torpedoed that campaign.

        It just seems like the people who defend Biden the most, don’t know anything about him besides that he was Obama’s VP.

        He was rejected by the American public over and over again for decades. It wasn’t until the only other alternative was four more years of trump, and he just barely beat Trump by the skin of his teeth.

          Strange to see you, of all people, saying that. Biden of the '80s would have been much more corporatist and neoliberal than Biden of the 2020s, and therefore way worse despite being in his prime, age-wise.

            Saying what?

            He’d have probably been a good president back then.

            Isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement.

            But back in the 80s it wasn’t even debatable, Biden was the best public speaker of his generation.

            And yeah, he was/is a neoliberal, but he’d have been pretty indistinguishable from Bill. And back then his whole “work with Republicans, not against them” schtick had a chance of working.

            Bidens time was decades ago. Doesn’t mean he was perfect back then. But I don’t think he’s changed much, you seem to think he has.
