      It's an unpopular opinion around here but I am pretty sure that people hate Trump more than they like Biden, so he'll probably win. 2016 was unique in that everyone fucking hated both candidates, but this time around Biden is much less unappealing than Hillary Clinton.

        Yeah the takes around here that think Biden will get crushed because of a lack of enthusiasm completely ignore that libs will go to any length to vote out Trump because they view him as uniquely dangerous. Biden could lose, but it won't be because of some enthusiasm gap.

          It's wishful thinking, straight up. Of course Biden is a limp French fry, but he's more than just Not Trump (and NOT Clinton) so that's good enough.

        His poll results look way more optimistic than Hillary's around the same time. But I still won't put Trump winning by 5 delegates or something completely out of the realm of possibilities.

          The US has a very stupid system set up, and that's not out of the realm of possibilities. Clinton lost based on A) being one of the most hated people in America and B) her weird-ass metrics-based campaign that Robby Mook ran. Lanyards gonna lanyard.

        Also, capital seems to have come to the conclusion that Biden is better for business. So yeah, the election is already over. They pumped Trump for a tax cut, now they're dumping.

          Wall Street doing well because of Kamala Harris was a more damning indictment than anything
