There are a lot of big differences between former President Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
Among them, Trump has much better border and economic policies and had no new wars during his tenure.
Other big differences? Humor and energy.
Trump may be 77, but he exudes energy. Biden is a very old 81, largely because of his incoherence, constant confusion, and lack of energy.
Trump highlighted that difference in a big way during a "Get out the Vote" rally in Rock Hill, South Carolina, while also pointing out the double standards of the media on Friday night. Trump is far ahead of his remaining GOP competitor in South Carolina, Nikki Haley, and he was already thinking ahead to the general election with Joe Biden.
Trump noted how the media was cool with Biden previously saying he wanted to fight Trump and that he would "beat the hell out of him." But when Trump responded that wouldn't end well for Biden, the former president pointed out that the media thought the idea was awful and they called him a "fascist." But he said he had a response if Biden still wanted to take him on now. The response was perfect and the audience loved it.

Trump blew a bit with his lips, mimicking blowing Biden over, then showed his hand tipping over twice, indicating how Biden would go just fall over in the face of being blown on.
That's humor and a connection with his audience that Joe Biden just doesn't have.
Of course, it's all Biden can do just to get through reading his prepared notes without several major gaffes or other problems. He can't even remember the names of people he just spent time with like Alexei Navalny's widow and Queen Rania of Jordan. Now, even donors are worried about Biden because even in the off-the-cuff meetings they're supposed to be having with him, his people are having to highly script it, rely on teleprompters, and have him read from notes.
It's a concerning thing that the Biden staff has to come up with all kinds of "fixes" to try to block out the press and direct Biden off the stage so he doesn't get lost or trip going up the short stairs.
Unfortunately for Biden, Trump isn't Corn Pop -- he's real. Biden is going to be in deep trouble if he had to debate him. I don't think they're going to go there, they'll find some way out of it.
But beyond that, Trump is up in most of the current polls, according to RealClear Politics. He is ahead in all seven swing states, in some by as much as 10 points, in recent surveys.
So in the real "fight" that matters, it's not currently looking good for Biden.
That may be why the Democrats are mulling other moves if he wins, with some even suggesting that they might not certify him in an incredibly hypocritical demonstration of not giving a darn about "democracy."
