    Biden won 2020 in spite of being Joe Biden, it’s why it took almost 40 years for him to win his first presidential primary, people just don’t ot want him as president.

    Now that we’ve had him for four years, and he was worse than we expected…

    I really don’t think he can pull out another razor thin win like in 2020.

    We’re risking trump so we can have a Dem president that’s more conservative than Dem voters want.

    There’s no logic behind it, except the donor class would rather have trump than a progressive. And just like AIPAC, they decided it’s easiest to just buy both parties in the primary.

    This is the third election and a row, it’s not going to be different in 2028. If voters only requirement is “blue” then nothing is stopping either party from getting more and more conservative every election

      He far exceeded my expectations.

          • Massive infrastructure bill
          • Student loan forgiveness
          • Marijuana rescheduling

          There’s plenty more, but my expectation was for him to not be Trump which he has thoroughly succeeded at. The rest is icing.

          The biggest things he’s disappointed on, Trump disappoints on too…:

          • Palestine
          • Being too fucking old

          …so it’s easy to see how that on balance he has exceeded expectations…
