Pfizer understands full well that Biden will represent their interests with greater decorum and greater predictability than Trump.
P.J. O'Rourke said the following in 2016, about Hillary, but it applies to all politicians IMO, except one :
"I am endorsing Hillary, and all her lies and all her empty promises," O'Rourke continued. "It's the second-worst thing that can happen to this country, but she's way behind in second place. She's wrong about absolutely everything, but she's wrong within normal parameters."
That last sentence is the clincher for me. Most politicians are standard-issue-dodgy and standard-issue-grubby. Biden, Obama, Clintonsx2, Bushx2...........but Trump is a law unto himself, completely off the charts in any category when compared to others. For every one dodgy thing you can find about Biden etc., you can find dozens about Trump. He is so far outside of "normal parameters" it's not funny.
The choke hold that he has had on political debate is suffocating. 4 years of non stop reporting on his latest tweet, gaffe, insult, sacking. Any interest in actual policy has been completely swamped by endless sh1t. I would defy anyone to name 5 policies of Trump's era without using google. We cannot focus on anything of substance while he is in office.
If you are a Trump fan, I don't see the point of trying to find dirt on Biden or anyone else. It's a mug's game, and you will be on an absolute hiding to nothing. His list of indiscretions is so far ahead of other pollies. He will undoubtedly go down as the worst president in US history, an embarrassing episode that I for one hope is never repeated.
