once again, in addition to belittling Biden supporters, positive Biden polls are scoffed at.

That Biden is still more than holding his own, given media bias against him and the full brunt of the Trump machine, demonstrates Biden’s durability. Not one internet-based news source that democrats pay attention to supports Biden while readers tend to virulently oppose him.

But Joe prevails. He endures. He and “old people” aren’t going anywhere soon.

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