Biden is literally one thing: Not Trump. He's not inspiring, he doesn't energize people to go out and vote, hes not as good a speaker as Obama, not as funny to laugh at as GW Bush, and not as doom-post bait as Trump. Idk who they were trying to tap into with a Biden movie(book i misread). People literally vocalized that they voted for him because they wanted to stop caring about politics again. You'd still pull more Biden voter views with a movie about Trump and thats half the problem with our political media in general.

He's not everything I'd like in a president, but he's done better than expected and more than I thought possible given the stagnation and division in congress. I think better of him as a president now than when I voted for him because I simply thought he wasn't trump. Definitely think that's worth acknowledging, and denying it isn't doing his campaign for reelection any favors.
