The thing is, where I'm from all I heard in 2016 was that Hillary is a liar and corrupt witch. This time, I just hear that Biden is boring. I think "boring" is a better label...
Biden is not as divisive as Hillary. I heard the same thing being said about kerry being boring. Kerry came off pompous and arrogant. Biden at least comes off as likable. Also Trump is more polarizing than Bush.
Biden is very disliked by the Bernie supporters. I really think people are so incredibly afflicted still with this Trump Derangement Syndrome, they really miss the forest for the trees.
Trump is viewed as stronger on China, stronger on the economy, and has taken up this mantle against the rioting & statues. If anything, the base of the GOP disapproves with him because of a lack of response to the rioting.
Its not about likeability in 2020, its about whose up for the fight. The GOP loves Trump, he still rates very very high among Republicans. The GOP has made significant gains in voter registration of former Dems, especially in places like PA, WI.
I think Biden is peaking way too soon, and it will probably be why Biden loses.
This is wrong, we have seen polls of Bernie supporters favoring Clinton at like a 90-3 margin, I'd like to compare this to in 2008 when around 25% or a quarter of Clinton supporters supported John McCain under the mantra of PUMA or Party Unity My Ass, but of course that doesn't fit your narrative you drone.
