It's always very difficult to beat an incumbent, especially in this era of extreme polarization and somebody who is essentially a cult leader like Trump.

BTW, it's laughable to say that Biden failed to energize Democrats when he got 16 million more votes than Clinton. The only ones who didn't vote for him are grifters like Nina Turner and Lee Carter or Putin mouthpieces like Jimmy Dore and Glenn Greenwald.

Because Dems keep underestimating the guy. After he won in 2016 they should have learned not to treat the election like a done deal. They did a better job in 2020, but Biden still overestimated his lead and as a result Trump almost won again. The craziest part is they still underestimate Donald J. Trump after 2016 and 2020!

Total BS. Show me an example where the Biden campaign or Democrats treated the election as done deal.

Biden got 16 million more votes than Clinton mostly because of population growth...

That's nonsense. The US didn't grow 25% in four years.
