But even without that stuff, Biden never had what Obama had in 08.
People travelled from all over, it was a huge deal and people were literally celebrating in the streets nationwide.
Some of that was because we getting rid of GW, but most of it was excitement about Obama.
In 2020 there wasn't excitement from anyone, just relief.
OK... Nobody claimed he would have anything like what Obama had.
But the biggest factor for turnout was still covid.
It's weird that you're turning this into some sort of "man look at blue maga here!" thing.
Never get involved in a land war in Asia
Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line
Never get into a dick-measuring contest with Barack Obama.
