Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) says former Vice President Joe Biden could have easily defeated President Trump if he'd run for president last year.

“If Joe Biden would have run against Donald Trump, Biden would have won in a landslide,” Sasse told The New York Times on Wednesday.

Asked why Trump won, Sasse said: “I would argue pretty vociferously that’s it’s also because of who his opponent was,” referring to Hillary Clinton.

Hard to argue. Hillary got 3 million more votes. Crazy Joe would have made that 10.

The sky is also blue.


Good thing it was "her turn" and I'm sure if he ran against her the media would paint him as a sexist.

I think pretty much anyone would have beaten trump besides Hillary, and Hillary would have beaten anyone but trump. It was the perfect kryptonite.

If Biden would of run then Bernie would have been the nominee and lost. Nice try Ben

Biden take 20-30% of Clinton vote and that's enough for Bernie

I dunno about that. Biden ran for POTUS twice and got about as many votes as Palin did when she ran for mayor of Wasilla.

Also, the blue wall collapsed in part because of the massive premium increases in PA, WI, and MI. Biden would have been even more closely tied to that and to the Rust Belt economic decline.

Where did this idea that Joe Biden is universally popular come from? After year one of Obama's presidency, they made sure he was never heard from. Why? Because the dude is the biggest fricking moron in the government.

Joe Biden made Melania Trump's plagiarism look like child's play. He finished "in the top half of his law school class" if you consider 76 out of 85 the top half.
