Good, he was sitting on his ass running on the idea he would win because Trump. I'm not sure about now, but a few weeks ago his campaign page was completely empty on policies that he would run on, literally nothing.

Looks like that's still the case. His website only seems to be a place where you can donate or volunteer. Guess his campaign is just focused on social media now? I get the potential value in that; it's like old-school campaigning. But wouldn't you still want a clear and easy place outside of videos where people can reference your values, accomplishments, and further goals?

You would if you had any that align with those of the majority of the population, sure.

Biden's still living in 1992 like the rest of the DNC leadership, though, and hasn't changed since he bragged about attending more AIPAC events than any other politician in Washington, was the main proponent of that awful crime bill and advocated for cuts to Medicare and Social Security.

Hell, I'm not even sure he's changed his NIMBY attitude towards black people since he said of desegregation bussing that he "didn't want his kids to grow up in a racial jungle"..
