4. I also don't put much stock in polls, as they've been mostly wrong since 2016.

I think Joe Biden could have won again. It would have been close, but he would have come out on top again IMO.

This shows that the big-money donors have too much power in American politics. They can scuttle a presidential campaign by threatening to withhold money from not only that candidate but down the ballot, as well. That's a huge concern. Even if Biden stepping down is a good decision in the long run, that's still very troubling IMO.
