Many VPs before him had a strategy is not doing or saying much and hoping that being or having been VP is enough to get the votes. Sometimes it works. But Biden isn't good enough in any area to make people not care about his flaws, and he's not good at winning people over.
I think his strategy is BARACK BARACK BARACK BARACK BARACK

Unless you fully hate Trump would you even leave the house to jump on the Biden Bus?
He's pro blue collar union, unlikely to threaten social security or Medicare, pro fracking in practical terms, and a family man whose wife works for a living and bodychecked a couple Lena Dunham lookalikes on Super Tuesday. My guess is that he'll do well with women over 50 and rust belt voters who voted for Obama twice and then switched to Trump, and a few other groups that don't have twitter accounts.
Frank Sheeran, the guy who wrote "I heard you paint houses" said that he liked Biden. He claimed that the Teamsters helped Biden. He said, "Joe always had time for working people".

Biden is starting to really show his age. He is going to make Dan Quayle look like a polished orator.

Hunter Biden's lawyers alerted the Arkansas judge presiding over the child support lawsuit against him that he will be unable to attend his scheduled court deposition this week, citing travel restrictions caused by the coronavirus and the approaching due date of his pregnant wife.

If Biden makes it to the general, Hunter is gonna be the gift that keeps on giving.

Anyone else seen Walk Hard: the Dewey Cox Story?

But it is not going to matter. The economy and the "perfect" coronavirus response are going to doom Trump.

Nafod eagerly waiting for millions to die so he can dab on Tr0mp. 'Kay. I assume it will have the same effect that Russia, Ukraine, Impeachment, #metoo, etc. had.

In the meantime, Dems are committing suicide by Biden tonight. This is gonna be a very amusing general if Biden has to trade shots with Trump for the next seven months.

Biden will make Trump look erudite; a very erudite stable genius...and that's a hard task.

Weirdly, Republicans tend to think the whole virus thing is overblown, and are therefore likely to take fewer precautions, and get sicker sooner. Sacrificing their health for Dear Leader. Nuts.

Look at Italy if you want to see where we will be in two weeks. Every country that has dealt with this has had to lock it all down, and has tested like crazy. We've done neither

NotTrump is going to steamroll Trump in the general. I bet the Senate goes with him.

Only partisan Republicans believe this. “Let’s bring the kids into the discussion” is not a winner for the Trump family.

Hunter was potentially useful in the primary, and maybe if Trump could have gotten investigations announced without his fingerprints on it later on, but that ship has sailed.

This is the dude the DNC thinks can beat Trump? Are they pining all hope on the NeverTrump vote carrying them? Because Trump will dig this type of shit up and use it to bury that old fool.
You can say that Biden could call Trump out on Trumps bullshit, but we have all the empirical evidence in the world that Trump voters don't give the tip of a turd about Trump's lies and personal issues. But the fence sitters will look at these Biden clips and know all they need to know about him.
The only reason to vote for Biden is to vote against Trump. I don't think there are nearly enough of those people to sway this election in the Democrat's favor.

Biden's lying is baked in, like Trump's pussy grabbing. It's just Joe being Joe. He's got a good heart. Exaggerates a little. Stuck by his loser son after having to bury his other one. Family man. Understands loss. Has the ability to empathize.

I look forward to Bloomberg's ads attacking Trump.

Well, I'm not partisan and I'm not a republican but I'm here to tell you you're wrong. Hunter Biden is a liability to anyone with eyes because Joe has been his principal enabler.

Shit, google the highlight reel of Biden being belligerent with anyone who asks a challenging question at his town halls, then telling them to vote for someone else.

He's not Trump, and that is going to be enough.

Spoke from the oval office last night, and the White House immediately had to walk back half the speech, which someone in the White House wrote.

People rushed airports to fly home because he forgot to mention Americans were exempt from the ban. Also makes no sense to exempt the UK when a) far more cases there than rest of Europe and b) anybody can just connect through a UK airport and fly here.

"WASHINGTON — The Justice Department is moving to drop charges against two Russian companies that were accused of funding a social media campaign to sway American public opinion during the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

Prosecutors said they concluded that a trial, against a corporate defendant with no presence in the United States and no prospect of meaningful punishment even if convicted, would likely expose sensitive law enforcement tools and techniques, “potentially undermining their effectiveness.”

The translation from Pravda-speak is that the charges are utter and total bullshit, given that the status of the accused was known before the charges were ever leveled.

Or... Barr has completely politicized the issue? Given the universal opinion of the IC, charges seemed inevitable.
