Biden was successful in defeating Trump mainly because he acted like an adult and behaved how most folks thought a president should. Yes, Biden was a bland, old, uninspiring, unenthusiastic, uncharismatic candidate. But he wasn’t a 75-year-old man acting like a four-year-old spoiled brat with his name calling and throwing of temper tantrums along with his 3rd grade schoolyard bullying tactics. Biden was to put it bluntly seen as someone who would bring back sense of dignity to the oval office.
2020 was all about personality, a rude, uncouth, obnoxious, egotistical candidate vs. someone who really didn’t have a personality. Someone available to replace the man-child. I don’t think it matter who that someone was. Not to independents, the non-affiliated and non-partisan group who voted for Biden 54-41 over Trump. All they wanted was someone who knew how to behave presidential and not act the spoiled brat whose parents forgot to teach him any manners. Quite simple really. So simple and in your face, so apparent that a lot of Republicans can’t, don’t, won’t ever understand why Trump lost.
