Joe is an absolute shit tier candidate, worse than Mondale and maybe also every other major opponent since at least 100years.

Mondale in '84 had at the end 40% pop vote and carried only two states - but Joe as a candidate was definitely worse than him and should even score way lower than that.

Eh, I do think that a lot of people did vote against Trump thanks to the combined conditioning of #orangemanbad and #vote. But, I sincerely doubt it was anywhere near the numbers of new Trump voters that Trump picked up. I think Biden's actual total vote number was about the same as Hillary's. The Trump:Biden margin was wider than the Trump:Hillary margin. I think that Trump probably won the popular vote that year too and that the 2.5 million difference was fraudulent too.

It's an election truism that the more people that genuinely HATE your candidate, the more people like them too, and people are MUCH more likely to vote for someone they like, as opposed to someone they hate. The haters also tend to split their vote across Third Parties. All in all, a highly talked about candidate (even for the wrong reasons) tends to generate more votes For than Against.

Biden performed worse than Hillary across the board, even in counties he won.

The only areas he performed better were almost exclusively the 4 metropolitan areas that he needed to carry PA, GA, WI, and MI. Ignoring the shenanigans in Maricopa AZ, NV, and possibly other states where his performance was slightly better than Hillary's for reasons that can only be explained through fraud.
