You make a good point, Biden is not an effective communicator, but a competent facilitator of b iparisanship, but he is simply the avatar of the Democratic National Committee.

Biden is, in case, we forget, the race horse that they led by the bridle from the paddock to the starting gate in 2020, because they had nothing else, no one else, and he won the race because the other one was hobbled.

Any race horse could have beat the RNC stable's favorite in 2020, were that true today, were it true had not the race horse that won in 2020 not suffered from self inflicted wounds and flaws.

Do men become president because they won, or because the other side lost?

I maintain that in 2020 Trump lost, anyone could have beat Trump that election, that wasn't outright scary.

2024 is not 2020, this time the theocrats are totally organized and prepared, Republican legislatures have enacted laws, armed poll watchers have been recruited and trained, I would be surprised to see them wearing uniforms and arm bands.

Right Wing lawyers have prepared and refined briefs to be filed if the election doesn't go their way and will be waiting on court house steps.. Bannon even admitted it before going to jail, for a four month vacation.

And the Democratic party is caught up in circular firing squad, and it is all about ego's and careers with no concern, as far as I can see, for the future of the country, the party, the constituency.

In 2020 Biden won because 8 million people turned up to turn Trump out of office., but it was the Swing states that did the job, red states like Arizona , Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia that turned purple for one election.

That advantage is gone, thanks to voter suppression laws and planned actions.

We can only hope that the Muslims and black voters of MN, MI, PA, WN who have threatened to sit out the election or vote third party, were talking out the side of their mouths and have a come to Jesus or Allah moment,on Nov 5th, suddenly realizing that if they follow through, they are building loading ramps to their own cattle cars. This is no time to bitch about the past, because the only thing that really counts is the future.
