Beating Trump is the main issue in this election for Democrats, and as long as Biden is this far ahead in that he's going to win.

There are going to be voters who, right now, say they like Pete or Warren, but when it comes time to put rubber to road, they are going to end up voting for Biden.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
