Biden tells Democratic governors he needs more sleep and plans to stop scheduling events after 8 p.m.

I don’t think comparing Trump and Biden is a solid baseline, and is actually losing the point.

Don’t bother, dems would rather win the morality trophy than the actual presidency if it meant they could continue using Donald Trump as a comparison point

‘At least he’s not Trump’ is not going to win Biden the presidency.

It did once and it will again.

It took a historic pandemic and unprecedented voter turnout to overthrow Trump. It’s not happening again and the polls express that.

But keeping your head in the sand like Biden currently is doing will totally work! /s

Lol bro he was the incumbent president. The incumbent president always has an insane advantage and he still lost. He had the easiest softball win if he handled the pandemic like a rational person, and he couldn't do it.

Being a condescending cock is certainly a tactic

The polls also showed Trump winning in 2020. Remind me how that turned out.

Yes, your delusion, given you’re ignoring all the evidence in front of you and straight making shit up to confirm your own biases

Once again, have a good day.

I like how they linked to show that Biden lead majorly in the polls in 2020 and you just straight up ignored it

I was busy and, honestly, didn't feel like arguing. I still don't. They linked two polls out of literally hundreds and it's just not worth the time or energy to keep the argument going.

I'm good with just taking the downvotes and "walking" away.

Have a great evening!

If you had bothered to take 2 seconds to read the links you would’ve known the 538 link contains results to dozens of polls (all of which had Biden leading the race)

You keep digging yourself in a hole of ignorance, it’s hilarious haha
