He's more likely than not to win the election. Imo, that is a bad thing.

@Burnley123 It's way too early to tell. Anyone bothering to answer the pollsters at this point in time are for the most part people whose entire life revolves around their political stance, who generally sit at the far extremes of the spectrum. Trump being the leader of one.

@Burnley123 If you put in the diligence to look beneath the superficial hype he isn't as likely to win as you are being (easily) led to believe. Now, that doesn't mean he can't win, but it's not all that likely.

@Burnley123 Very bad thing. I have seen recently what he's said regarding immigrants and that's probably the most authoritarian practices I've heard about in a long time.

@Elessar My position isn't that Biden can't win, it's that he probably won't.
Mark Paul was saying that Trump should give and that is (obviously) a very silly argument.

@Burnley123 Yeah I figured, but I think any prediction made this far from the election isn't going to be accurate, either for one or the other. All the indicators we have right now come from the people whose alignment is pretty much fixed. What we need to know is how the "independents" will vote, in particular in "swing" state, and those typically sway until the very end.
He definitely can win. I don't think one's more likely than the other, I'd say it's 50/50 with maybe a little bit of advantage for Biden due to a) being the incumbent b) the GOP pushing a candidate that already lost once, Haley imo would've had a better chance due to being a bit of a homus novus (and would've still be pretty awful as well, so maybe it's better if she lost the primary)
