He is hated by the right.

Many moderates and liberals view him as a weak feckless shell of a letter writer. He is more like the stapler guy from office space than a real leader.

I know my son's would never vote for him. They consider him as compliant as the occupied French government during WW2. Especially when he refused to kill the continuing resolution that will allow the tax breaks for billionaires turn them into trillionaires by stealing from the poor, veterans, senior citizens, etc.

It should 90-10 in a head to head race.
