I think the truth is somewhere between “Biden is a dementia patient in a secret nursing home” and “Biden is a vibrant brilliant retail politician.” He’s benefited from fewer unscripted interactions with voters, which is where a lot of his gaffes have historically come.

This.


That’s not the point of this leak. The point is to persuade the undecided voters (and there are plenty) to vote for Biden. Some people are looking for an excuse not to vote for Trump. This may do the trick.

I mean you have to be a pretty uniformed voter if any of this is shocking enough to sway your vote. There's already a million reasons to vote against him.


Uninformed voters may decide the election. If "oh, he's actually a TERRIBLE businessman" revelation is what it takes for someone in PA or Florida, so be it.

This has happened a few times, most recently in early/mid June with the protests, but the bottom is falling out again

Man the margins on the Senate being like 51/49 GOP to like 54/46 Dem are really fucking narrow

The polls

Public stuff presumably will be catching up, that Upshot poll in PA being a prime example

does seem PA is trending more towards WI, MN, MI at this point. More recent ones are 6-7 range as opposed to 4-5 range (generally).

I’d invite every contractor he ever stiffed, and every worker laid off as a result.

I mean he campaigned for the Democratic nomination. And I'm sure he'd love to be able to do actual events, but he takes the pandemic a little more serious than some.


Perfect reply to this nonsensical Bernie Bro talking point. Cannot wait for Biden to lay it to rest tomorrow night.


You guys are insane.

It's had to have been said like 10 different times and ways on this board that the best thing for Biden is to let Trump ruin himself.


I mean Trump was always going to ruin himself by talking. You could have just said that instead of making it seem like Biden is unable to be coherent and campaign for himself.

New ABC poll has Biden up 9% in PA and 2-1 margin in Philly suburbs..similar to NYTimes Poll..I think the decision to go forward with Supreme Court pick is really hurting Trump

Pretty worrisome results in back to back, high quality polls if you're Trump.

He’s lost a lot of support in the Philly burbs. But more surprising is what he’s losing in Central PA/Harrisburg burbs.
