    But what does all that count for when people are busier finding excuses to not vote for Biden than to vote against the orange Putin?

      That doesn’t change the fact that Trump didn’t get reelected (which is almost always the norm in U.S. politics) because people realized their mistake. Biden ain’t a saint, but at least he’s not a scorched-Earth asshole like Trump, and most Americans know that.

          Definitely not guaranteed, but again, I think most Americans learned their lesson with the Hilary/Trump fiasco. They thought Hilary winning was a given, it was guaranteed and, well, it wasn’t. So the America people wised up.

          When you hear that “people are losing faith in Biden,” you have to be reaaaally careful as to who is driving that narrative. Hint: the voices are not coming from within the room.
