Who Really Believes Biden Can Beat Trump?

[reformedliberal]

Yeah. I can see that happening, if only because she could use running for President as a shield against *political* charges.

I just doubt she has enough juice left(except for the contents of various bottles)to even muster an attempt.

[kenmcg]

Biden? Forgetaboudit, he’s history. The bet here is that Kamala or Pocahantas will be led to the woodshed by the Trumpster.

[Theodore R.]

Plenty in DE and TX think Biden is a winner, but they can’t say why.

[IrishBrigade]

‘The Dem candidate starts out electorally with many more assured votes than the Reps.’

right now the most likely EV total would be dems 232, pubs 224, with 82 up for grabs...a miniscule shift in 2016 turnouts in the swing states would have an immense effect on the next election...

[tbw2]

Even if he wins, all the insults and dredged up accusations cripple him against Trump.

[Buttons12]

I believe the progs know they are toast this cycle, so they are sacrificing their entire bench.

I believe you're right.
Short of a war with Iran, there is nothing that will save the Dems this time around. Their 2020 contenders are only in it for the practice.
Unfortunately, though, we're going to need someone incredible in 2024, and they don't grow on trees.

[DoodleDawg]

Then why is she on every talk show everywhere? Do not underestimate those underhanded shumcks. The cast of thousands is not resonating with the public and are in fact alienating “normal” people. After it becomes clear that there is not one viable candidate among them, in swoops Moochelle and “saves the day” No baggage (well except her husband) and a new set of boob belts to shame Melania and she’s off and running.

You really need to loosen your tinfoil beanie a couple of turns.

 Tweet Email  Email Six Democratic presidential candidates took the stage at the Essence Festival on Saturday, but it was a former inhabitant of the White House who got a rock star's welcome -- regardless of her tendency to deflect questions on the 2020 election. FROM NBC Former first lady Michelle Obama refused to comment on the Kamala Harris-Joe Biden "dust up," as moderator Gayle King called it, Saturday night, but Obama did reiterate a lot of her opinions surrounding the current political climate with a lot of color and to a lot of applause. I'm looking for my tin wrench but it seems to be lost again, sorry.

I sm rooting for bernie but creepy joe a close second

Joe's team has already tried keeping their candidate in a box with a lid on so that he can't step on his...tongue. It didn't help, his numbers took a dive. So now we have the candidate who really doesn't believe in anything wiggling around for a position on hot-button issues. The results aren't pretty:

when asked by Chris Cuomo if his health-care plan would include the reinstatement of Obamacare’s fine for failing to buy health insurance. Biden brayed, “Yes, I’d bring back the individual mandate.”

This was, as the article points out, a point so despised by the public that both Hillary and 0bama opposed it themselves, and it can only become less popular still when coupled with this:

For example, the plan to provide free health care to illegal immigrants results in an 18-point swing toward President Trump.

As has been pointed out elsewhere, this means simply that the candidate intends to fine the citizen for not paying for a healthcare plan that that same candidate intends to give away for free to illegal invaders. If the Dems are stupid enough to take that position into the election they'll be buried, and Joe's just the man to do that.

[BlackAdderess]

I think that if the Democrats win their party back and don’t lose it to the Left, then they can totally count that as a win.

We don’t want to end up like Venezuela, which is to say the victim of a massive transfer of wealth to a communist regime like Cuba (in their case) or China (in our case).

Unfortunately, though, we're going to need someone incredible in 2024, and they don't grow on trees.

So true.... Trump the Very Stable Genius is a once in a century American patriot, promoter, entrepreneur, leader, manager, strategist, politician, skyscraper builder, boss, defender, Twitter troll, smart-cookie, sportsman, dad, benefactor, law enforcer, ambassador, humorist, and all-round regular fella.

[Cobra64]

This is why Trump should stay out of it. Let the pirannahs eat their own.

[kabar]

No way Reps have a lock on 224 electoral votes.

Thanks libstripper. Kobayashi Maru alert.
