Pool report: Biden left the room to a shouted question regarding whether he has confidence in Dr. Fa

12. Given the fact that most incumbents are reelected if there is nothing bad going on,

that simply isn't true. I believe we would have likely lost even with Biden who gave us our best shot. Trump mishandled the pandemic badly and the ensuing economic disaster because of his complete incompetence. Carter had the Iran hostages (and he still almost won). Bush I had an economic downturn and without Perot, he might have won anyway. They were the only two to lose as incumbents since Herbert Hoover. I do no include Gerald Ford as he was not elected and served only two years.
