Trump IS his opponent, so naturally he'll mention why he Biden is better than Trump.

But his kickoff rally that introduced his campaign strategy was all about "unity," unifying the nation, working with Republicans who were lead down a garden path for a while but will awaken and be nice once Biden is in office. It's not about negativity or Trump...except to the extent that Trump is his opponent and is taking the country in the wrong direction (as all opponents are said to be doing).

But we'll see what he says tonight. I have trouble supporting someone who equates the current Republican Party (which has caused normal Republicans to leave their party) with the Republican Party of decades ago.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
