36. There's no reason to believe that is the case

Your equation is biased by what you want to believe. If Harris couldn't separate herself from the Biden policies that were unpopular, how does Biden, especially given his physical decline?

Given where the polling was before Biden dropped out, he was on track to lose in a landslide. How does he turn that around? He was never good at the rah rah rally stuff. He wasn't willing to engage on inflation or immigration until very late in the game.
