Former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott said Joe Biden is the only Democrat he thinks would be competitive in the 2020 election against President Trump.
“Joe will be able to perpetuate the image of Uncle Joe, and he is pleasant. He is qualified,” Lott, a Mississippi Republican, said in an interview for the Yahoo News podcast “The Long Game.”
“Half this bunch in there right now is not qualified,” Lott said of the current Democratic field.

That would be pretty sad.
All the ‘Pubbies have to do to beat him is keep a montage of Crazy Uncle Joe’s creepiest moments and best gaffes on TV.
People can make all the jokes they want but Biden is a legitimate threat.
Although Democrats want a woman and/or minority Democrats may come to the realization the only way to beat a white man is with another white man.
'Gropin' Joe' memes aren't going to discourage Democrats.
Democrats vote Democrat. They will vote for the candidate they are given.
And if they are given Joe they will vote for Joe.
Yes, and now here he is queerleading for one of them.
Joe speaks well, good English like Obama. He also grabs little girls like Clinton grabbed women. All in all, a good Dem.
Ha! I learned a new word today!
I think Lott is right on, too.
Biden would probably get more votes from cross-over Republican Never Trumpers than any other Rat candidate, and that’s what makes him dangerous.
Both brain dead and worthless..Trent says Old Uncle Joe can beat THE DONALD, nice going Trent, trashing a sitting POTUS of your own Party...
what is wrong with these old time Politicians..they think we still care what they say??? smh
Thanks, I’ll be here all week.
Oh, do you think they will sit home? All the Bernie supporters voted for Hillary even after she stole primaries from him....
You are completely correct. Absent a true scandal about his “groping” those anecdotes are ludicrous and irrelevant. He had a son who fought in Iraq. He’s had good experience. Clearly qualified and well spoken and hell, I’d have a beer with the guy.
A total threat.
Michelle Obama?
No way. You’re lost if you think that.
“Not in my neck of the woods. The closed factories are still closed.”

That surprises me.
Last year, I remember hearing the CEO of U.S. Steel saying that steel factories have re-opened, and new ones are being built. The CEO went on to credit the Trump tariffs for this re-newed economic activity.
Lowering the corporate tax rates to 21% has helped the recovery (although apparently not in your area). I heard China has a corporate rate of 25% and Russia has a personal and corporate income tax of 14%.
Are you in Pennsylvania?
And that is the sorriest statement on the state of the Democrat Party that you'll ever need to read.
Exactly.
Trent also thought sharing power with the dims was a good idea too.
No way, Michelle has zero political acumen, she is a non-starter.
Stick her on the View with softball questions and she’ll do fine. Put her on a debate stage and she’ll get destroyed.
“the Supreme Court which might have allowed her to serve”
As we already learned with Obama, the Supreme Court will never make a ruling on a case like that, because apparently, nobody has “standing” to make the challenge.
Only Congress can determine that someone isn’t qualified to run for President, and Congress has abdicated that responsibility.
I wish it were true, but that's not what I see.
