If the last election was a referendum on establishment versus anti-establishment candidates, and if that same sentiment extends to this next election, then it seems like running an establishment candidate is a dangerous thing.
To be clear, I -personally- think Trump is very much part of the "esablishment" (whatever that might mean), and I am also open to either of those premises being false...
but I can certainly how they may be true.
And that's not getting into the questions that a lot of folks have about Biden's actual mental condition.
- InitialLastName 6y ago6 out of the last 7 people to be elected US president ran under the "outsider" banner, usually (wasn't alive for the earliest ones, so not entirely clear on the messaging) against someone they could coherently paint as an "insider". It's not just the last election, is what I'm saying.
