I’m trying to put myself in the shoes of someone dissatisfied with President Trump, (not easy to do). Anyway, let’s say you dislike Trump’s blunt style, or whatever. Your alternative is Biden, a shell of a man, a man who at his best was a couple steps above being an idiot. Now, age has knocked him down those steps, and he really is a full on idiot.

I can’t possibly imagine what is so bad about President Trump that would cause someone to knowingly vote for someone who lacks the mental capacity to make it through the day on his own.

You are not looking at what the media is presenting about Biden. He's got hours of teleprompter speeches written to make it look impromptu. That's what the media shows people and Biden looks fine in those.

Most people who suffer from TDS believe Trump is a criminal mastermind.

Would you vote for El Chapo (Drug Lord) or Alfred Newman?

I think you bring up a thoughtful point. Many people have conscious and subconscious biases. For example, some interpret POTUS as a bully figure or dominating father figure for whom they have contempt due to their own bad experiences, fears, and personal weaknesses. My bias came early for B-HO due to my college fraternity experience of two brothers who were jawbones but had zero substance, and always voting ‘present’ so that the cowards couldn’t be tied to any real responsibility. They spoke in platitudes but could often be counted on to “lead from behind” after staying safe on any decision making. My bias of Biden has been from growing up seeing phoney tough guys. My bias of Warren was having grade school buddies who had annoying moms who tried to be cool but secretly held contempt of anyone outside their circle. My bias of Hillary came from working with a female boss who lied constantly and tried to blame others for her mistakes. My bias of Reagan was that he was charismatic and smart like my dad.
