Biden stability beats Trump volatility in 2024 match-up, experts suggest
Political scientists read the Republican runes and suggest Trump will win the nomination – but how would he fare in a 2020 rematch?
The fact that we're talking about either of these guys as viable candidates, and that they will likely be the nominations, is wild. Biden would be 86 and Trump would be 82 if they make it to the end of the term.
27I personally feel like the great American experiment has failed if these two fucktards are our choices.
3The experiment failed in 1861, but once an institution as big as a country gets started it tends to keep going.

Experts predicted Hillary didn’t they?
12Five Thirty Eight was pretty spot on actually
6if you can’t grasp by now the myriad ways this cycle would be different from 2016 for trump, i don’t think there’s any way to get through to you on the matter. you’ll just have to sit back and watch.
6Sit back? I don't think so. Vote!
4I hope you are right. I just think there is a strong base, a lot of people who don’t like Biden and there are (way too) many republican politicians willing to dance to his tune.

As it stands, political scientists expect Donald Trump to win the Republican nomination for president. Most GOP candidates are in lockstep with Trumpist policies and culture wars, failing to differentiate in an already scattered field; despite the appearance of a united front, factions within the party cannot agree on when and how to pass hardline legislation. Traditional conservative forces are looking for a less volatile alternative with a more viable path to win the general election, and as that concern mounts, some experts say Biden could be narrowly re-elected if the race is a rematch of 2020.
10Looking for less volatile candidate… maybe they should’ve done that in 2015. You guys created this mess. Now we all have to clean up after you.
22Democrats cleaning up Republican messes seems to be standard operating procedure.

So they're looking for a less volatile culture warrior? I'm pretty sure that's not a thing.

I feel like when Trump was first running everybody considered him a joke candidate outside the redneck community. And yet look where we ended up. I don't think it's safe to assume any democratic nominee is in any sort of lead or decent position until the polls been called. People get too relaxed they Don't bother voting because they see a foregone conclusion and that is a dangerous thing
4That is good to see.
