Ok I’m not even American so I won’t be voting anyway. With that out the way I feel like Biden would be better for the left. Why? Because liberals wouldn’t be able to blame everything on Trump and be smug as fuck. Shit is going down and while the Republicans are in power liberals can pretend that everything thing would be jolly under their presidency. If Biden is president and things are still going to shit the left can actually attack liberalism properly.

Problems with this view?

    Trump is escalating with China though, stroking anti-Chinese paranoia and starting trade wars. Trump offers a scapegoat for the contradictions of capitalism, as long as Trump exists to take the blame for everything, many liberals will never see the problems with their ideology unless they see it failing.

      yeah, but your theory that the left would grow more under biden depents on the liberals not ignoring the state of the world for 4 years like they did under obama, plus kamala is going to be the basically the president so they wont have to deal with dying joe biden, Biden its just as anti China as trump, plus if you seen the libs on reddit you would realise these people want a genocide against the evil chinese, that pus Biden's actual good foreign policy team means China would be attack by an actual threatning foe.
