Joe Biden is killing the fundraising game.
And no, it’s not just because people hate trump. Although that has a lot to do with it.
Believe me, I know… people really, really, REALLY hate Donald trump… we hate him so deeply that for tens of millions of us, a root canal without novocaine at the hands of a dentistry hobbyist with questionable hygiene and limited vision would be FAR preferable to a second trump “term”.
“I’m not actually a dentist, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night… now say ahhh…”
And that hate (I know, I know — I’m not supposed to say that I “hate” anyone, and I’ve struggled for many years to let that word sit in my mind and heart when it came to the maniacal melted circus peanut, but I’ve come to understand that it simply cannot be helped, and that he is, if ANYONE on the planet is, deserving of the word and the accompanying emotion), but that hate (and very real, not at all hyperbolic fear of the dystopian hellscape which would accompany another four or likely more than four years of that despotic dotard) is a very powerful motivator when it comes to aligning behind anyone who can beat him.
And Biden has done just that. He beat him. As he should have. Because as anyone who’d been paying attention for the last many decades knew, Joe Biden was exceptionally qualified for the job he now holds. And he was competing against then and is competing against now, for a job of unrivaled consequence - a former tv reality game show host… a rabidly racist, unintelligent, incurious, sexual assault bragging dumb dumb who, with the time he’d inexplicably been gifted in the Oval Office, turned the Executive office into what can only be described as a dumpster fire of democracy destabilizing insanity, incompetence, lawlessness and malfeasance.
