      That's weird I keep reading that Biden is a weaker candidate than Hillaryhttps://twitter.com/greenfield64/status/1252250288406196224 …

      New NBC-WSJ poll says that among those who dislike both candidates, Biden has a huge lead. This is big news, because in '16, Trump won a huge majority of those who disliked both DJT and HRC.

      He's a weaker candidate than Hillary but in 2016 Trump hadn't botched a pandemic leading to countless unnecessary deaths and he hadn't overseen an economy heading towards 30% unemployment.

      this may be right. i think i partly agree. but is there anything but suggestive opinion which backs this? but most statistical measures he's a stronger candidate. I don't think those count for much. But they're not purely opinion.

      none of us can prove any of this but I think the fact that Biden has not been one of the opposite side's top three targets of ire for the past 25 years should probably count for something

      It's true that he's far less polarizing than HRC and that will help him this year in particular (when I think many will be understandably eager for a "unifying" president).

          I would consider that synonymous with "stronger"
