Absolutely. They will soon say: He is "the guy who can finally bring some down to earth common sense to this messiness of all the fighting and arguing. It's been so bad under Trump, all this arguing and investigating and testifying. Biden will calm that stuff down again."
The NY Yankee cable subscription ad used to say "The players whose names you know. The team that will be there in the post season." The uninformed voter knows Biden and thinks of him as the guy who will be there when Warren and Kamala are pushed aside.
Yes, Mr past his prime, reasonable Democrat, just called Trump Hitler in his speech announcing his presidential bid... but he’s going to moderate the D party? Be serious folks.
Yes, Biden will do better than the rest of the clown car, but he has ZERO shot at winning.
Trump ran roughshod over the entire GOP field without batting an Eye, and then took out the ordained queen, who had spent more than a decade making sure she had it in the bank... But somehow creepy old uncle joe, who couldn’t win his party’s nomination back in his prime, is going to beat a sitting president, presiding over a great economy? Do you rally hear yourselves.
Here are the facts, and all the rest of this is chicken little nonsense, and simply there to keep you anxious and tuned in to the bread and circuses for the next 18 months.
UNLESS THE ECONOMY COMPLETELY COLLAPSES, THERE IS NOT A CHANCE IN HELL ANY DEMOCRAT CAN WIN THE WHITE HOUSE IN 2020... PERIOD..
In the past ~120 years, there have been exactly 4 sitting presidents who failed to win a second term, and 3 of those 4 lost because of the economy... PERIOD.
The reality is this, the top of the Dem ticket will either be a has been past his prime guy doing it out of loyalty to his party (knowing in reality he can’t win, but will keep up appearances to keep the base engaged so that they don’t stay home and turn the Presidential route into a route up and down the ticket)... Like a Joe Biden, or it will be some firebrand who is too foolish to realize they can’t win.
Joe Biden is clearly playing that role in the 2020 race, the only real question is, which, if any of the firebrands will take him out.
However it WON’T MATTER who the candidate is, Trump will win, and win big in 2020. The serious D candidates are simply running now to build up a national network and donor contacts for a 2024 run... The serious folks know its a lost cause this time and don’t want the millstone around their neck in 2024. So the real players will stick around for a bit then disappear, and you’ll be left with Biden (or if he stumbles they will find someone else to play that role) and someone else too stupid to know even if they get the nomination, they have ZERO shot at winning.
And to those that believe otherwise, Tell me, which states do you see Trump losing in 2020 that he won in 2016... Because I live in the upper midwest, and I am telling you, Trump is going to win here far bigger than he did in 2016, unless the economy completely tanks in the next 18 months.
