    Biden is polling so badly since Afghanistan pullout and has never recovered, and that’s been a trend downward since, especially with what’s happening in Palestine. Both him and Trump are historically unlikable opponents. “Unnamed Democrat” pulls double digits higher than Biden in important swing states. If you genuinely support Democrats and want Trump to lose, the best strategy right now is to protest Biden’s role as party leader because the election is his to lose.

    I’d like to hear the logic of people downvoting who disagree with this, and how Biden as leader won’t guarantee a Trump victory at this point.

        That’s all true of course but this is just polling data I’m referring to. It was during the Afghanistan pullout where Biden’s approval and disapproval inversed. I don’t actually think the Democrats are against the system that causes those other things, but I’m rationalizing the perspective of a Democrat supporter who wants to stop Trump at all costs. From that perspective you wouldn’t want Biden to run against Trump, you’d want another candidate who polls better against Trump in swing states.
