    Biden is pretty much unliked and the recent riots show this. He's also not going to max out the black vote the way obama did. Biden hasn't proven to be viable enough in the midwest the way trump was. In order for biden to do that he must act as a populist and reject a lot of s*** dems want to prioritize.

    How do the recent riots show this, because all they’ve done is make trump look even worse by people who didn’t like him or were in the fence about him. Also how has biden not proven to be viable when he’s winning in the polls of many midwestern states, left wing populism isn’t something democratic voters care about rn

    The fence is still up for debate. The people that didnt like him wouldn't like him even if he responded in a way they would agree with. The people that do like him are even more energized. And id argue most people are in opposition to the people rioting so tht doesn't hurt trump at all.

    Like I said before polls haven't accurately reflected anything about trump. Dont see a path for him winning plus he's less energetic and hasn't said anything to help his popularity. Trump has energy and continues to excite people. Biden doesn't excite anyone.

    Most people are in opposition to the riots, but in support of the peaceful protesting. Whether trump supports the peaceful protesting is irrelevant, because he’s largely seen as opposing the protests by the general public. You don’t need to excite people to win. Trump is so offputing to so many people that they’re willing to put Biden in office to get him out. A lot of trumps original charm has worn off now that he’s been president for 4 years, there’s nothing to be curious about

    "Trump is so offputing to so many people that they’re willing to put Biden in office to get him out."

    This is what people said about Hilary. i think you overlook how unpopular Biden is not only by conservatives but by lefties. I think you also overstate how unpopular trump is in the midwest. Most of trumps hate comes from states he wasn't going to win or a state like texas which will swing red in this election. He consistently has gaffes man. In order to beat trump you have to be energetic and offer something dramatically different while using the same strategies trump used. You cant beat an energetic populist with an energetic base without being a populist yourself. Biden's past also makes things worse. What can biden hit trump on outside of race? Not to mention biden slips up on race all the time. Fopo? We have no new wars and trump continues to echo the same sentiments he did in the past. Lack of stability? Trump can just point out the crazy left. Record? The economy "appears" to be doing well.

    Hillary won the popular vote so yeah, they were right then too,, just that she lost the rust belt, where Biden is measurably stronger than her. More Americans are liberal than conservative so biden doesn’t really need their support. Also independents prefer Biden to trump because he’s more moderate. Lefties don’t matter at all, that’s why bernie lost. Biden’s shortcomings are mote forgivable to the average American slightly liberal voter than trumps. Biden isn’t exactly a war hawk any more than any other president, I mean I know he voted for the Iraq war but trump supported it at the time too, he just changed his mind after it already went down. Idk why you keep going on about how Biden needs to be exciting, he really doesn’t. Bernie is a person who inspires actual support and admiration from people yet he still lost to biden. The crazy left does not matter, does not support Biden, and is not supported by most liberals. And the crazy right is actually killing people so it’s not exactly an even divide. The economy doing well in the past few years will just be chalked up as Obama’s doing (whether true or not), and the economy isn’t even doing well rn. I mean I know it’s because of a pandemic trump has little control over, but the average voter doesn’t care, they’ll just blame him and vote for the new guy instead

    Popular vote doesnt determine presidential elections. Imma need to see some data proving biden is really stronger than hilary in the midwest. What do you actually think Biden can say to win the midwest. Biden supports free trade. Midwest hates free trade. Midwest supports the populist put workers first slogan. Trump says this all the time. Hilary couldn't even win michigan which has a large number of blacks in detroit. Bernie lost because he tried to max out the white vote and ignored minorities + moderates. He also was blackballed by the DNC. You cant be the DNC nominee without appealing to minorities. That's their specialty. Biden's shortcomings are literally the same as Hilary. At least Hilary was a woman. "any more than any other president". That isn't a good thing. Trump is better on fopo than Biden. That's enough to weaken Biden's chances. I said in order to beat trump you have to be exciting. I didn't say the same for bernie and biden. They have their own issues separate. The most dangerous candidate is someone that can energize the silent majority which is what trump has proven to do.

    No1 is going to believe it's Obama's doing. It's been 4 years. No politician can say some s*** like that lmfao. It won't work. Plus Obama isn't popular enough with voters you need in order for that to work. The economy is "recovering" from the pandemic right now because people are going back to work. Right before electon. It's all in trump's favor.

    Do you have any data that proves Biden is stronger than trump, cause all you’ve shown are assumptions based on blue collar workers opposition to TPP. Last election, many of the counties Bernie won against Hillary in the rust belt ended up going to trump in the general. This time around, Biden solidly beat bernie all over the rust belt. Also Biden won the white vote in the primary too, so now that he has both that and the minority vote it’s not hard to see how strong he is in the polls

    Biden’s shortcomings are not the same as Hillary. Biden is a creepy uninspiring old guy who nobody really cares about. Hillary was seen as a literal force of evil for her emails and was blamed for the benghazi attacks. Trump is not some foreign policy genius, much of the worlds perception of America has taken a downturn since he’s been in office. He’s ended some wars yeah, but it’s not like he isn’t still involved in a lot of them.

    People do in fact believe the downward trend in unemployment is due to policies set in place by Obama. Whether trump helped or not isn’t what I’m arguing, but yes there are people who believe Obama is responsible for he economy doing well and that trump is essentially just continuing what Obama and Biden started out. The economy is recovering, but between trumps handling of the crisis and the current protests, most voters don’t support him

    No, I don't. I could probably find some data through some friends but I'm just too lazy to do that. Most of my argument comes from how I believe voters feel. It isn't just the TPP. Bernie lost to Biden because he didn't focus on all the issues those people cared about. Trump did.

    Biden's shortcomings are his record is no different than Hilary, he's attached to Obama, has constant gaffes, doesn't add anything new, and isn't liberal enough for his party. Biden might not be a "force of evil" but he is a force for everything wrong in the eyes of the left. And by left I don't just mean Bernie supporters. I mean the average left voter. Biden comes across as a privileged white man who's rich and has issues with women. Sounds exactly like Trump.

    " Trump is not some foreign policy genius, much of the worlds perception of America has taken a downturn since he’s been in office."

    Two things here:
    1. The world isn't voting for trump
    2. This isn't a bad thing

    There's a difference between people and most people. Most people do not think Obama was good.

    Biden’s record is different from Hillary’s, he’s not blamed for Libya, Syria, or Iraq even if he is partly responsible. Obama is popular, at least much more than trump so being attached to him is a good thing. Like I said before, the left in this country is inconsequential, and the people on the left who’s vote actually matters are so repulsed by trump they’re willing to vote for Biden. Trump is a lot more unpopular now than he was 4 years ago because he’s no longer the underdog who wants a shot at taking on the establishment, but is now the leader of the ruling party in the country. More people are democrats than republicans, and more independents like Biden than trump, if we’re not going on polls and primary results then we have nothing left to go off of. Twitter has proven that voices on the internet don’t equal actual votes

    Most people think Obama was either good or ok. Most people think trump is bad or ok

    I can’t answer for him, but Kamala being a former attorney general does not go well for the current tensions in this country rn
