31. Real dumb move if Biden allows that to happen

Joe's doing just fine (actually a LOT more than just fine) right where he is. Just stay put and appeal to the broad swath of Americans who are somewhere in the middle and win the election in a landslide. Then after he gets in, tack left and start implementing liberal policies that help the vast majority of people.

Americans prefer having "socialism" spoon-fed to them...they don't like having their mouths forcibly held open and having it poured down their throats.

Besides, another 10 months of coronavirus and market meltdowns and they'll probably be begging for it.

Stay the course, Joe.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
