Honestly polling shouldn’t be taken seriously after the debacle of 2016.

Biden is going to win for the simple reason that the bourgeoisie want him to win. Simple as that. The American people decide nothing.

People who still think Trump has a shot, don’t understand that capitalism doesn’t make the same mistake twice.

WHUT

What are some mistakes of capitalism that weren't repeated?

Yeah I also want to know this. Every 10 years capitalism engineers the exact same deregularion-credit-inflation crisis and there's no signs it will ever stop.

It is true that capital was probably less pleased with Trump. Stock prices were more volatile and his wild rhetoric caused some countries to go protectionist. But also you can't underestimate the bouegeoisie's capacity to believe everything will be fine. They think they'll handle things no matter which idiot is in the white house.
