    Biden isn’t Clinton. If you hadn’t got the news yet, Biden already beat Trump once. No one that voted for Biden in 2020 is voting for Trump in 2024. Biden has to worry about his voters staying home and Trump is the candidate most likely to drive people to vote against him by far.

    I would worry about Haley or Christie beating Biden before Trump. The only x factor is that Biden or Trump or both of them could croak in the next year.

      My concern is for much more apathy this time around. Between the economy, his age, and his one sided handling of the complex Palestine Israel tragedy, I’m really dreading the outcome already.

      I’ll vote for Biden again, especially against Trump, but he will never be exciting for me. If Trump continues to lay low during Republican events and doesn’t get convicted of some felonies, I could definitely see a scenario where Biden doesn’t get the votes and we all stand around mouth agape asking how it happened again.

      I’d worry more about Desantis. He might have the charisma of used bubblegum, but there’s an awful lot of people who like what’s he’s selling.
