I think that Joe could possibly challenge Trump in the general election. But the primary will be tough for two reasons.
He’s is part of the most despised demographic of the progressives. Old or middle aged white men are not in demand. He doesn’t look like someone that they value.
He doesn’t hate enough. He occasionally treats republicans as if they are actual human beings. The way politics used to be done. This is a mortal sin and he will need to be nastier if he wants to stand a chance. To get the nomination, a democrat must make no distinction between a republican and the Waffen SS. They need to be treated with equal contempt.
Rather than change to please the haters, Joe should keep his dignity and retire.
That would be a formidable ticket. But as I said, Joe will have to change in order to get the nomination. He can’t change is age or his race. So there’s that.
This is one time I would be voting more for moving towards maturity in the White House, as well as a thoughtful decision making process over policy. I may not like Biden’s policies much, but it would give the nation time to heal and get itself back on a track where reason could prevail over impulsive irresponsible behavior.
The base of the party is craving progressive policies that the current leaders have not necessarily embraced. That reluctance does seem to be more of a generational thing. That is the issue far more than being an “older white male”.
They would still vote for Biden in a heartbeat over Trump. Joe is a great guy who has actually known hardship in his life and can therefore relate to people. With him, the empathy isn’t just for show.
And Trump’s slashing of environmental protection regulations is horrifying. And then there’s his toadying up to murderous dictators while shunning our traditional friends. And then there’s that stupid wall that Mexico isn’t paying for.
Yes they would, its good for the nation don’t you know!
Who needs more jobs then applicants. Who needs lower taxes, better trade deals, and a prosperous and strong United States economy and military
No nation sovereignty, open borders, sanctuary states and cities for illegals and the Green Deal, and don’t forget infanticide, no gun background checks for illegals, all of that and more is the socialist Democrat “ticket” using the Venezuela model!
Nobody cares. I use the past 50 years of inaction to prove it. Politicians only complain when the opposition is in charge. They love to complain. Nothing more. They don’t care. It’s a hoax. Don’t fall for it.
