You might actually get it.
On one hand, I read a poll where 1/3 of conservatives won't vote for Trump and I think, "he's fucked." But then I look at Biden and think, "Can he survive to the general?"
And then I hear people say, "He's fucking exhausting... But the economy's good, so..."
If a progressive emerges from that field as the candidate, the economic voters are going to put Trump back in office.
I was talking with a military dude that other night who just moved back from Europe. He ranted about how disgusted he was at Trump, how embarrassing it had been to apologize for Trump to his European friends and colleagues. But who's he going to vote for? In order, Biden (because he won't do anything crazy to fuck up the economy), and if not Biden, Trump.
Never discount the pocketbook vote. Particularly where so many are so concerned about the future. That's why HC is a winning issue for Democrats, and Biden such a compelling candidate (he's associated with the ACA, of course). The people voting on social issues are already locked into their parties. If Biden goes down before general, there's a decent chance its four more years of Trump.
