Trump's RealClearPolitics average in a 2-way-race with Clinton, was 43.6 at the time of the 2016 election.

And as your own link shows:

Trump RCP average: 43.6%
Trump actual result: 46.1
---------------------------
Actual result +2.5

Clinton RCP average: 46.8%
Clinton actual result: 48.2%
---------------------------
Actual result: +1.4

So, both candidates' actual results were a percentage point or two higher than their final RCP average. This makes sense since the final result doesn't have any "undecided" voters.

If we take that 2.5% and add it to the 44.2% in the latest RCP average, we get 46.7% ... which is still a lousy approval rating.

And imagine Biden trying to run for President, an absolute deadbeat with videos of him molesting children all over the internet, including the video of Jeff Sessions pushing Biden away from his granddaughter....
Who else, Hillary?
Trump is cruising to reelection, and he isn't even in full campaign mode yet.
304-227 or even easier.
And Trump's black support is likely to increase, given that P.Diddy, T.I., Kanye and Chance The Rapper are endorsing him.

If Biden had run in 2016 and won the democratic nomination, he would have beaten Trump pretty easily. Trump got lucky by running against such a weak candidate in Clinton.

Biden is a lot weaker than Hillary.
Biden would have dropped out of the race, because Trump would call him "child molester Joe" everyday.
And Biden was even closer to Obama than Hillary was, so Trump can use that.

LOL. You're forgetting that Trump is a child rapist.

Obama was campaigning for Hillary, and we saw how that worked out.
Obama probably doesn't lose independent voters, but I think Trump gets more Republicans interested in voting when he talks about Obama.

The world has common sense.

President Donald Trump is deeply unpopular across the globe, holding the most negative rating among five world leaders, according to a new poll conducted by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center.
