Biden didn't even make a move. If you watch it for yourself what he said in its entirety, it becomes clear that he didn't say "supporters" but supporter's" which is a tremendous difference. He wasn't talking about a lot of people, but the statement of a single person. But even if Biden had called Trump's supporters garbage, what difference would it make; in order to be offended by that, you'd have to be a Trump voter to begin with and you were already going to vote for Trump anyway.

Even before this Biden "incident", Harris has said that he doesn't view people who don't vote her as the enemy, but will give them a seat at the table. And let's not forget that it never came to Harris's nor Biden's minds to block hurricane aid from counties that are dominated by Republican voters, as opposed to Trump who had to be talked out of such ideas during his time in office.

Anyway, Trump will lose this election. Because if he was winning, his campaign wouldn't go in so hard on planting the seeds for the next big lie about a stolen election.

You are clearly right... but are voters intelligent enough to draw the logical conclusion? Maybe not. And there is a separate set of standards applied to republicans.

Nope, voters aren't intelligent enough, but at the same time it's also true that they don't care. The campaigning in the USA is so damn long that almost everything that happens during that time blends together into noise that the average voter tends to ignore because it's so exhausting to keep up with.

That's why I found it surprising that the "floating island of garbage" of all things suddenly mattered and caused an actual reaction from voters. It should have blended in all the same with the typical anger and hatred of the Trump campaign, but somehow it didn't.

The Trump campaign would certainly love this Biden "controversy" to matter, but I don't see it happening. Because just a week before nobody outside of the Trump camp did seem to mind that Trump gets called a fascist.
