    With Donald Trump dead, the replacement candidate would win without effort. The same is true if someone targeted Biden.

    They’re both so bad that their deaths would boost their own parties.

      Not only that, more than most of Bidens campaign message is just warnings about Trump. If Trumps not the candidate Biden will have wasted billions and a lot of time on political messaging that doesn’t matter anymore.

        That’s not really true. Mostly it’s him struggling to describe all the ways that he’s been one of the better progressive presidents despite having a completely non functional congress and outright hostile court. The only message that sticks is how awful Trump is because it’s easy to say and understand, and is obviously true to some and obviously false to others.

          Well that and he has been hostile to progressive platforms is whole time in office. So no wonder he’s not bringing attention to how progressive he has been.
