The two top points can be attributed to technical companies like Uber and Lyft, which had nothing to do with the administration, especially for blacks.

NO, what I mean is that socially and culturally, Trump is changing the USA into a hell hole of disturbing proportions. Division, animosity, ignorance, graft and corruption abound in his administration. Plus he is constantly increasing the deficit and lowering the bar on what dignity and empathy look like by the President of the United States. I pray that we get a decent human being as our President in 2020.

Trump's wall is officially a flop: Even Fox News now calls his big campaign promise a mistake
Not a single mile of wall has been built. And even Trump's allies are beginning to back away from the whole fiasco.
Despite staking his entire presidential campaign on the promise that he would build a "big, beautiful wall" on the U.S.- Mexico border and would make Mexico pay for it, so far, all his administration has been able to accomplish is the replacement of about 60 miles of dilapidated, existing barriers with new fencing. While Trump’s war on immigration has seen a clampdown on legal immigration by war refugees, asylum-seekers and high-tech workers, his battle against illegal immigration has proven fruitless. His wall is officially a flop.

Low energy, defensive, rehearsed, and he doesn't have good short answers when attacked. He lacked the charisma Obama has and often makes poker faces and weird facial animation when attacked or misquoted. He has no new ideas, he seemed to just go along with the same platform others have and no idea what is own brand is about.

If the DNC still picks him to be the nominee, there's no chance Dems can take the White house with him.
Yeah, because the current resident of the White House sets the standard for presidential, right?

There are ~20 candidates left for president on the Democratic side alone, several with enthusiasm, fresh ideas and concrete plans for the future of the country. Biden has none of those things, and there seems to be no reason for him to be running, other than he thinks he deserves to be president.

Trump supporters are grasping at straws when they try to tell the Democratic party who looks presidential. Trump is the definition of an old mentally ill uncle that had too much to drink. Biden looks more presidential than the con who currently occupies the White House.
