This isn't breaking news by any means.

As for ordinary working people and cultural input - Trump overturned Roe v Wade and is proud of it. Nothing Biden has done comes anywhere near that.

All of Biden's shortcomings - age, verbal slipups, etc - also apply to Trump. But the opposite cannot be said.
He's a total narcissist and not a nice bloke. But I think his policies would generally favour Americans which is why he will likely win.

I don't have an issue with Roe v Wade being determined at a state level. It's a huge issue for many there, a definite moral point of argument and if people in some states don't agree, I think that's fair enough. I absolutely think that a woman should have a right to choose but I can see why others find the practice morally uncomfortable. It does strike me as a potentially more democratic way to deal with it, I dunno.
