      I’m feeling better than I was at the start of the year, but it’s certainly still no sure thing. A little confidence is a good thing, as long as it doesn’t rot into complacency.

        I have a feeling that since he’s now on the campaign trail, he’s rubbing elbows with more voters, doing the kissing babies and shaking hands kind of stuff. Getting out there more is helping him feel more in touch with more of the American people, instead of being more isolated and busy with presidential work.

          All this while Trump is stuck in criminal court for the forseeable future.

            This was part of the Biden team’s strategy. They literally planned around Trump being stuck in federal court for April and May. That’s part of the reason why Biden is campaigning now.

            It’s a stark contrast between an indicted criminal and a sitting president.

              Trump caused these court delays all on his own.

              If you are saying that Biden’s team expected & planned for that, you’re likely right.

      Hey, don’t cut yourself short.

      Biden’s first presidential primary was 1988, it took 32 years before he was able to win one.
