2020 - Biden was supposed to lose...didn't happen.
2022 - "Red Wave" was supposed to wipe out Dems...didn't happen.
2023 - Abortion votes in red states would lose 'bigly'....didn't happen.
2024 - France and England would fall into the far-right club...didn't happen.

Are we REALLY going to make book by these same clown predictions that Biden won't win 2024 POTUS election?
REALLY?!?!?

Polling and prognosticating are essentially alchemy and astrology level nonsense.
Don't believe the hype! (Here come the drums..)
