Republicans LOVE to talk about Hillary’s polling lead but ultimate loss in 2016. It’s all they have I guess. There are some key takeaways about Biden’s current lead, though.
His polling average (49.3%) is closer to the magic 50% average both nationally and in key states than Hillary at this point in the election (44%) in 2016.

The former vice president is above or close to majority support in enough states to win the Electoral College.

“It’s the same story in many of the battleground states: Biden is at or within 2 points of majority support in enough states to lock down an Electoral College victory, compared to Clinton’s low-to-mid-40s scores in mid-September 2016 in the same states, some of which she would end up losing as late-deciding voters went decisively for Trump.”
In most of the 13 swing states identified by POLITICO — those rated as toss ups or just leaning toward one party in our Election Forecast — Biden is not only outperforming Clinton in terms of the margin between him and Trump, his average vote share is also greater than Clinton’s was at this point four years ago.
Two things:
1. In 2016, everybody laughed that Trump won the nomination on the Republican ticket and knew his running was going to be a joke. The POLLS, well they showed that Hillary would win by a landslide. Those laughing, laughed well into the election night, then their faces dropped. The last laugh was on them. How could a man who was not a politician, not eloquent, egotistical and obnoxious, win?????!!!! It was the platform he ran on, not his personality.
2. Fast forward to 2020 and the left is again, relying on the POLLS. Big mistake. The left has no real platform. All they've been doing, all this time, is complaining about Trump, with wild accusations that turn out to be not true; blaming him for absolutely any negative thing in the world they see occurring. They're absolutely livid that he beat a mediocre candidate who didn't really run on any specific platform and who made the mistake, saying: "I tell the public one thing and people in private another." Showing a clear duplicity in her dealings and again, no real platform of solutions for the problems facing the country. Going back to the POLLS, these polling agencies continue making the same error over and over. They do their polling in the largely Democrat run cities. They branch out into known Republican enclaves within those cities, but still, just work the large Democrat cities. By ignoring the rest of the US, they get a false reading.
Trump has publicly stated his platform for the next four years and defense of the Constitution. The left.......Orange Man Bad.
I had to chuckle at Biden and Harris going to southern Florida and not being successful there. They clearly don't understand that the Cuban and Venezuelan population fled to the US to flee Socialism and don't want it here, so they're no voting for the Democrats (actually, now they're more neo-Marxists than Democrats).
