> Joe Biden barely won

That's slightly revisionist. He won the popular vote by almost 5 percentage points. That's a lot. He also got more electoral college votes than GWB (both times) and Trump in 2016. His victories in the battleground states were also by a higher margin than Trump's in 2016, though still close. "Barely won" is a shade of true.

I honestly don't blame the guy for believing it was his responsibility to the country to run for re-election and keep Trump out of office. His heart was in the right place, even if the rest of him wasn't up to the task anymore.



Trump in 2020 was such a shitty candidate that he should've been easily trounced.

So anything a lot kess than that looks to me like ”barely". Perhaps im too harsh?

I get why Michelle Obama wont run but i think she would've trounced trump in 2020 or 2024.

The democrats need to field a candidate that has her kind of appeal to beat trump.
