    "So why is he running if it’s not to stop trump?

    And why would he drop out if Trump does?"

    He has said, the only reason he is running is because of Trump, so like I say in my hypothetical, if Trump is out, Biden literally has no reason to run and has a month before the Democratic Convention to announce what he’s going to do.

    There is no statement NOW, it’s all contingent on the Trump court cases, public opinion, and what happens at the Republican convention in July.

    If Trump is out THEN you can look for a statement from Biden.

      You’re taking him to say the only reason he’s running is because he doesn’t want trump to win. But it’s likely not.

      He likely meant the same reason Clinton’s team spent donations from dem voters to boost trump during the primary:

      When Republicans run someone like trump, it’s the best shot a conservative dem can win, because there’s a big difference between even a conservative dem and trump.
