Today I talked to someone who said, Trump would win in November.

I asked, "Do you agree, Biden won in 2020?"

— "Yes."

"Okay. What specifically has Trump done since 2020, which has improved his chances of winning?"

— "Well… not much."

"Right", I said. "Then look at what Biden has done for ordinary people: Cheaper medicine, more jobs, the economy back on track. Will that make Trump win?"

(Very long pause)
— "You may have a point."

It is all a feeling — two questions, and reality sets in.

Elections are all about vibes, man.

It's just like the tropes.

"Donald Trump was just denied bond in his New York fraud case. So why does it feel like Joe Biden is the one going bankrupt?"
