Just IMO as an independent suburban woman who graduated college many many years ago, we need normal. Someone who doesn't tweet conspiracy theories or make fun of others or lie constantly. Someone who will be a president for ALL Americans & not just his base.
Many of us didn't vote FOR Biden but against Trump.
Don't complain when the job market doesn't improve and it's hard to get a job.
Prior to the pandemic that began in March, the economy was booming and we had record low unemployment. If Biden "officially" wins, things may not improve until he gets out of office.
I suppose that the pandemic played a large factor. President Trump downplayed it from the beginning, we then had audio tapes of how he knew this was a serious situation back in February, but still maintained the virus would be gone by Easter (or whatever date popped into his head at the time). All the while the pandemic kept growing. Now, we are facing 2,000 deaths per day (60,000 per month at this rate), a million new cases every five days, and all around the country hospital beds are becoming scarce.
I am still amazed that Mr. Trump got as many votes as he did. I guess repetitive lying works.
You’re surprised at that? I’m surprised there are 80M Americans that hate the country, law enforcement and the military. You are one of them.
Why did White voters in this election favor Biden over Trump?
They didn't.
But millions of white women who voted for Trump in 2016 switched their votes this time just because they find him obnoxious. Yes, they're risking their children's future with less thought than they use in changing the channel on the TV. Sure, they know that Trump's policies are better, but it's not a matter of reason, it's purely shallow emotionalism.

Prior to November 2016, the economy was also booming and we had very low unemployment. So I assume you voted for Hillary?
All I know was there was a huge amount of Anybody But Trump that built up in the white voters over the 4 years of his term.
Some of this came from all the white folks who didn't vote for him the first time, but after he messed with the farmers, I noticed he lost some of their support here. He also lost farmers when he started going after their seasonal labor and began sending them back across the border.
He lost a bunch of the older white voters when he started going after ObamaCare, which has their MedicAid strapped so securely into it.
He offended a lot of the women I know. I can't say who among them voted for him or not, but some must have. 2018 seemed to the the year when Trump lost their affection here, but since I never voted for him, I really wasn't paying close attention to those who did.
2018 was the year a local bunch of older white guys, some farmers I know, quit wearing their MAGA hats when they met each other for coffee in the mornings at a local truck stop.
Up until that year, they all wore their red ball caps and made a big point of it. Halfway into 2018, they had all quit wearing the red hats and had gone back to wearing their old gimme hats from Chase and John Deere again.

If Biden gets in you get to own it. Enjoy. I can’t wait to see you shill for all the ridiculous shlt he does.
Trump didn't get my husband back to work soon enough and my dishwasher pressure is still lacking. What was a suburban housewife to do but vote him out?
JK on husband, fortunately he hasn't lost his job. I don't even think about my dishwasher pressure. But I am one of the suburban housewives (really a homemaker if a term must apply, I didn't marry a house) he tried to court so oddly. Alas, it didn't work and I voted for a Democrat for the first time.
Cultural Marxist Stockholm syndrome, that's why. They have bought into the sick leftist lie that they must hate themselves because they were born white.
