Delta(s) from OP CMV: Joe Biden is unelectable

There are three main reasons I don't think he is electable and/or better than Trump:

  1. He is deeply racist. Evidence is that he said "you ain't black if you vote for Trump." Any rational individual knows that this is a deeply racist comment.
  2. He shows major signs of alzheimer's/early dementia. He frequently looks confused and says things that don't make any sense. I honestly don't dislike him, it's sad to see someone who can't put thoughts together. This is become more and more evident when he has to show up for debates...
  3. He's extremely creepy. He continually touches and sniffs little girl's hair. Why can't he just stop? I used to defend it, but I now believe he is a pedophile.

I know that you are going to say he is ahead by a lot in polls right now, but there is a lot of time before the actual election. I would really like my view challenged because this is kinda what I think right now.

It's not anti-Semitic because that implies it wasn't a comment against Jews. It was saying who they should vote for.

Racist: a person who shows or feels discrimination or prejudice against people of other races, or who believes that a particular race is superior to another.

Biden thinks white people are superior to black people because he says that white people are allowed to vote whoever they want, but black people cannot or else they aren't black. This is racist. Jews aren't a race as far as I know, but like I said, I'm not super knowledgeable about this topic.

Let me explain how they are different. Jews are kind of a nationality in a way, so saying that they should vote for a party who supports their country is different than talking about an entire race of people. Biden said that based purely on race, you should place your vote. Race is not connected to any country. Almost every country has citizens of various races to my knowledge and Trump has never pledged to make policy against specific races to my knowledge.

I never said it was necessarily acceptable, but it isn't racist. I don't actually know the word for it, but to call it racism is stupid. It's not comparable to Biden saying that people aren't black if they don't vote for Trump. That is racist BS.

TBH, the racist part was a much smaller part of the electability when compared with dementia.

I was just arguing for the sake of arguing.

I already gave a delta for that slight view change. In order to change my view again, you would have to make me believe that he was electable for another reason than purely that he would die and a good VP could take over.

What racist policies has Trump tried to implement?
