From an outside perspective I think Biden is a decent candidate, but I won't argue about if he did more good than bad. People know what to expect and the country is run by the administration as a whole rather than any particular individual.
Although I have to admit that Trump did challenge that in my view as he seemed to push for personal goals a lot more than past few presidents from history.
- shadowgovt 2y agoThe issue is the President is also the face of the country, and a lot of voters are tired of having to choose between two geriatric guys from the last generation of politics. Trump gets a huge boost from voters who are simply exhausted from being told consistently that only those over 70 need apply (especially when so many perceive that it's a generation that is selfishly leaving the world as bad as possible on their way out). Though Trump is also part of that cohort, he's not considered an insider (counterintuitively; you can't get more inside than "was a President"). So he resonates with people who want an end to business-as-usual.
