This is a great analysis. It ignores a few things, such as the Biden family's awful corruption, and also the impact of Trump trials over the next several months, never mind possible surprises in a few of the early caucus and primary states. But from a 30,000 foot view, it captures the Biden conundrum. A few of us said in early 2020 that if Trump makes the election a choice, he can win. If he makes it about himself, he's likely to lose. Trump, an extreme narcissist, can't help himself. An enfeebled and impaired Biden can still win, but only if Trump is the GOP nominee.
Perhaps the general despair about the future is due to the two candidates for President. We can do better.
