Of Course Biden Can Beat Trump.

As of today, the trial which will decide whether Trump is criminally liable for what happened on January 6th, is set to begin in D.C. on March 4, the day before Super Tuesday, when 15 states will decide who will represent the GOP come Election Day.

Right now, all the polls show Trump with a 3–4-point lead over Biden, with new polls coming out all the time with Trump’s slight edge remaining firm. And as we pull closer to the Iowa caucuses next month and Trump continues to lead both the GOP field as well as in the general election polls, the noise being made on the Democrat(ic) side about Joe stepping down, has risen from a slight murmur to a more serious and continuous refrain.

The latest voice making noise about Joe being the wrong candidate to run against Trump comes from Nate Silver, who just published a story in his Newsletter which says that the Democrats are taking a risk by nominating Biden unless they can be sure that he has the stamina and the wherewithal to run a strong, year-long campaign.

The good news is that at least we are finally getting away from all that nonsense about Joe being demented, or stupid, or both. The bad news is that Nate Silver and others seem to think that Joe’s age is some kind of ‘proof’ that he won’t be able to take the physical rigors of a national campaign.
