    Why do you support Joe Biden. Forget Trump. Just articulate why you support Joe Biden for president.

    I do not support or like Joe Biden. I do not want him to be President. Therefore I can give you no reasoning that favors him on his own qualities, political positions or claimed legislative plans. In fact, at least on Second Amendment rights, I solidly disapprove of Joe Biden's stated plans. Gun Control is not about Crime or Human Violence, it is about a foolish longing for a simplistic solution to complex human troubles, and harms the innocent always.

    On the other hand I utterly despise Trump and so will vote for Biden as a corrective action to the last four years of grotesque Presidential failure.

    After which I will be active in opposing Biden while he is in office, if he should win that is.

    That's it.

    Obviously the second amendment issue isn't really that important to you if you are willing to support the guy who is essentially against it.

    I don't think Biden will be the nominee. I think he is there to distract the Trump campaign from a long prepared attack on whomever the Democrat elite have picked.

    I wonder about that too but if that is the case they had better already have someone in mind and setting it all up because it is getting close to election time and it takes a lot of cash to win an election. The question is who would they pick?

    That is one of those questions like:

    Discuss New York Baseball without mentioning the Yankees or the Mets.

    It is impossible.

    The MAIN Reason that most people support Biden is Obvious and Crystal Clear.

    It is a Binary Choice and voting for Biden is the only way to get rid of Trump.

    LOL

    Yeah, let's not discuss actual issues. THIS is why we have the problems and the leaders we have today.

    Democrats want Trump to win. What other explanation explains selecting a candidate who is even worse than Hillary?

    Internal polling shows running a disheveled Muppet (Sanders) would be even more of a disaster?

    Obviously as important to me as the Second Amendment is, I judge the risk to the Republic being greater with Trump winning a second term than with Biden winning a single term. The damage of a continued Trump presidency would be far greater than the risks involved in defending the Second Amendment from Biden's incompetence and dishonesty on the issue.

    It is a question of weighing the risks and considering the means available to mitigate those risks. Every vote in the House and Senate on an anti-gun bill is an opportunity. In this way my ability (as in everyone on my side of this issue) to defend the Second Amendment has a long history of success, though with some notable failures. On the whole, substantial gains in restoring the rights enumerated by the Second Amendment have been made.

    On the other hand my ability to defend the Republic from Trump's massive incompetence is all of one single vote in November. He should have been impeached, but that effort failed due to Democrat's lacking a spine.

    For me the decision is not at all difficult. Support Biden now, if he wins oppose his idiotic anti-gun agenda with my time, effort and donations to the Gun Owners of America, the Second Amendment Foundation and others.

    What is all this damage and how is it any different from any other president?

    This makes zero sense. Its squarely in the realm of schizophrenia.

    Which is why Trump leads him by ten points in voter enthusiasm for their candidate. He has not articulated a reason to vote FOR him.

    So they are only voting for Biden because he is not Trump.

    Brilliant.

    I will vote for Joe Biden because the man has decades of a proven track record where he served the public realm with decency and honor. I will support Joe Biden because he is mostly liked and respected by nearly every demographic, both internationally and domestically. I will support Joe Biden because he is supremely empathetic and possesses the tools and personality necessary to unite this country against a common enemy, to rejoin and refine American leadership on the world stage, and to heal wounds created recently and over the course of several decades. I will support Joe Biden because he is notorious for surrounding himself with and listening to relevant experts.

    When you combine the individuals who strongly support candidate A with the individuals who strongly oppose candidate B, you get a net enthusiasm rating.

    Joe Biden leads Trump in net enthusiasm because it is a binary choice.

    So you support Joe because he is a DC lifer and people like him. Great. If he didn't help fix our problem during his nearly fifty years in DC what makes you think he will as president?
