No worries, man! I never put anyone on ignore, so what you say might very well be true haha.
Ithil AniHawk : Trump's (and, frankly, the Republicans') potential electorate isn't beholden to the same standards of civil discourse and factual truth than the Democrats. That's why he's able to win and have a high approval rating despite calling Mexicans rapists and lying through his teeth about anything and everything. The Dems, on the other hand, have to have at least the appearance of truthfulness. They have to be more subtle, more dignified, more moderate because that's how they see themselves, and how they think they should behave to win. Biden is doing exactly that by running on a platform of "a return to decency and dignity". He's already playing into Trump's hand - honestly, even Bernie falls prey to that perception sometimes; he's harsh on Trump, but he's been strangely soft on Biden.
The stains on Trump's record will hurt, sure, but not as much as Biden's, because the rules are not the same for the two camps. Trump was already a crass individual back in 2016, and Clinton tried to be more dignified and factual in her approach, but Trump won anyway (of course, the electoral college shit didn't help, but that's a topic for another time).
This is all unfair, no denying that... But it's the kind of corner the Dems have put themselves into and have a hard time coming out of, and the Republicans love it. "You go high, we go low".
