Whatever happens and whoever our nominee is, Joe Biden has and continues to soften the target, make Trump worry and rant. He's approaching this as a dedicated Democrat, calling out Trump, exposing him for what he is and always has been: unfit for office. Whatever anyone thinks of Biden, he is an experienced and dedicated politician. His strategy to take it directly to The Donald is unlike any of our other candidates. Whether it works or not for nomination purposes remains to be seen. However, he's obviously getting under Trump's skin and in his head.

And that's a good thing! For everyone.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
