What if Biden is actually good at this and Twitter, whose cognoscenti insisted for the entire primary that he wasn't, is actually bad at this?

Just a thought.

Biden's extraordinary polling strength, which by the way predates the coronavirus outbreak, is as much a repudiation of the political elite's collective wisdom as Trump's victory was. We should be talking more about why the elites keeping getting the electorate completely wrong. https://t.co/PyWSIaAo53
Here's one obvious reason this keeps happening: A constant overemphasis on the votes and issues of the young, who don't typically vote, and an disinterest in the votes of seniors, who are most likely to vote. Trump won them in 2016. Biden is winning them in 2020. Take note! https://t.co/NRDymLybOi
Old folks are not on Twitter. They don't drive the social media conversation. Most campaign reporters are young, and naturally gravitate towards the issues of their generation. But this leads to reporting that doesn't align with the driving concerns of much of the electorate. https://t.co/fczhCHGh8c
This is convenient, but wrong. Biden has been polling this well against Trump since late 2019. Other Democratic candidates like Warren and even Bernie (who polled pretty well) did not. This difference requires explanation if we are being honest and not projecting our preferences. https://t.co/aQrPWbZ3Cv
Here is the straightforward disproof to the claim that "Biden is only winning because Trump is bad and unpopular": It's not just that Trump's favorability is awful. It's that Biden's favorability has shot UP as the campaign progresses and more voters see him. People like him!
Too long, didn't read: Contrary to what you might have heard on this web site, people are not just voting against Trump, they are voting FOR Biden. https://t.co/AbUmVTo99I
Stop and appreciate for a moment that Biden's favorability has gotten BETTER since the presidential campaign began and Republicans turned their weapons on him alone. Candidates typically go down once they are nominated and attacks and polarization kick in. Biden reversed gravity. https://t.co/AbUmVTo99I
