    It’s not “in a bid for power”, it’s to block Trump. If Trump weren’t running Biden would likely dust off his hands, go “My work here is done!” and quietly retire at the end of his term.

    If something happened to take Trump out of the race, especially between now and the conventions in July and August, I think Biden would bow out, but he won’t as long as Trump is around.

      I simply don’t believe that Biden is the most electable person in the country against Trump lol

          Well, I guess we’ll have to see if he can do it again. I don’t bemoan people for voting for him, but he doesn’t have mine

                that’s what I said. you’re effectively voting for Trump.

                You don’t understand how the voting system in the USA works, obviously, which is a shame.

                I look forward to preferential/ ranked voting coming in, but until that day, you’re a fucking retard.
