    In November, when the voters are choosing their next President what will they remember for what Biden has done?

    You may claim that it's not his job to do anything now, and it's fine that he's doing nothing now. But will thr voter choose someone whose job isn't to respond to the virus (Biden), or someone who may have failed in some aspects but succeeded in many others and now has a lot more experience compared to his opponent (Trump).

    Biden isn’t in a position to do anything, except embarrass himself during interviews.

    If President is ultimately successful before the election with the virus and the economy he probably will win re-election. If we still have problems with one or the other come October he might lose. If we have problems with both he probably will lose. It is primarily up to President Trump.

    If you want to look at Biden's suggestions - https://joebiden.com/covid19/

    Yeah, you still can't wrap your head around the reality that other than the Right Wing Echo Chamber, Trump has zilch success as a president. Man that sucks to have to defend your bad pony in this horse race.

    November will be all about Trump. His response to the current pandemic could be big, good, bad or indifferent. It's all a matter on how people see it, there perspective on what he did, could have done or didn't do. We really don't know how most Americans will view that today. Lots of things can and will change between now and November. Some other event could be front and centered with CoronaVirus being ancient history.

    As for Biden, no one expects him to do anything about this pandemic. He isn't in a position to do anything at all. He isn't even in the government. Biden won't be judged on this, but Trump will.

    Watching the meltdown on Faux on election night WHEN Trump LOSES is going to be Epic.

    Maybe they should hire Megyn Kelly back for festivities.

    Well he is still in the race, so he must be somewhat successful considering the left tried for three years to have him removed from office. So I'm placing failure were it actually is, the Democrat party ;)

    What makes you think there will be an election? If Covid continues to worsen then be prepared for a state of emergency and the election postponed until such a time there is no risk of contagion..

    I can guarantee you, if Donald Trump tries to postpone or delay the elections, there will be a civil war.

    And that's why Obama got reelected. Romney didn't do anything memorable.

    Neither did Biden and that's why Trump will be reelected.

    Sure he will be judged for instance on the fact he opposed the travel restrictions.

    Only Congress could delay the November date for any states to hold elections for their elections. And they have little time it can be delayed before the EC would be casting it's votes. Not holding that election would be a state decision nothing to do with the federal government it has no authority over how the state chooses its electors the state legislature could decide not to hold an election and choose them itself,

    The date the Electoral College cast its votes is mandated in the Constitution no one can change or postpone that and no reason to do so they don't all meet in one room they vote remotely.

    The election cannot be postponed unless a constitutional amendment is enacted. I don’t see that happening.

    Blue and purple states should implement vote by mail
    Red states can force their citizens to risk exposure to vote in person

    Obama was re-elected because he had majority support.
    trump does not — and has not.

    I dislike Biden but there is zero he can do at the moment

    He gives the Trump haters hope that they have Trump getting beat to look forward to. Nothing else. But thats enough for certain folks.

    I understand that there was an incumbent advantage. But do you agree with democrats that Obama was a superior candidate than Romney?

    If Biden supports Trump, he is one of the few, since 55% of voters think he's doing a bad job.
