    From abroad at least Biden seems like a very poor candidate. As he’s chosen to stand again the dems have little choice but get behind him or risk a devisive primary season splitting the party.

    But the republicans look set to select a very poor candidate too. It says a lot about how broken US politics is that were probably going to see a rerun of the last election with two elderly candidates battling it out in a deeply divisive and particularly polarised election.

    The election will basically come down to how many people don’t like Donald Trump. That’s not great.

        • He promised he wouldn’t run.
        • He’s old and likely has experienced cognitive decline.
        • He’s the most anti-union president since Reagan, and supposedly a Democrat.
        • The border is as bad or worse than under Trump.
        • He’s not actually able to campaign effectively for himself or others.
