One of the most polarizing things about this election is that nobody can imagine anyone voting for the other guy after listening to him talk for five minutes. "You Gotta Be Kidding Me" should be the slogan for the entire contest.
I confess I have this reaction too. Trump frequently says, and tweets, things I find exasperating. Rarely have I seen anyone work so hard to talk himself out of a job. But I listen to Biden talk and I can't believe anyone would be foolish enough to vote for him.
Biden can't even finish his sentences properly when he's regurgitating 30-year-old talking points. The man clearly is not all there. I guess his supporters are just talking themselves into ignoring it because they hate Trump, or because they know Biden's just a figurehead.
I also love how his fluffers are frantically trying to sell Biden as a super-nice guy and a "unifying candidate" when his bitterness and vicious partisanship are so obvious. He loathes the half of the country that voted for Trump and he will gleefully punish you for it.
Having said that, I'm not surprised that people who dislike Trump have a visceral reaction in the opposite direction. It's perfectly understandable. We really should know better than to vote on visceral reactions - including the positive ones most previous candidates cultivated.
Maybe it's fitting, given the state of our society, that a lot of people in 2020 will simply vote against the candidate they dislike more. /end
