Re: U.S Election 2020
Yeah, Biden was a weak candidate although he did what he needed to do in the end. Biden got the nomination by being 'the best of the rest' at the time Sanders was surging and the DNC didn't want Sanders to be the candidate. The DNC thought Sanders was too left-wing for America and - look at how the Democrats other than Biden performed - that was right.
Biden won precisely because he was perceived as less of a risk and his campaign mostly let Trump do the talking. It was also hard for the Trump campaign to make the idea he was some dangerous communist leftie take hold.
