    They’re not selling a legitimate product service, the only thing rubes are being sold on, is the confidence of the salesperson.

    Biden can be as confident as he wants to be, and some voters may assume that confidence means he’s competent.

    But Hillary was extremely confident she’d win 2016. She shouldn’t have been.

    And that over confidence directly led to her not trying as hard as she could, and voters falsely believing she had it wrapped up and they didn’t need to “hold their nose”.

    Biden and voters need to be realistic about his chances to beat trump, or it will lower his chances to beat trump.
