Its’s crunch time and Joe Biden’s campaign is pilling out ALL the stops….
Former President Barack Obama is back to campaigning….
Former President Obama joined his former vice president, Joe Biden, at a rally in Flint, Mich., on Saturday as he ramps up his campaign appearances on behalf of the Democratic nominee in the final days of the 2020 presidential race.
Speaking at the drive-in rally — a format that has become popular with Democrats during the coronavirus pandemic — Obama delivered a scathing assessment of President Trump’s tenure in the White House, hammering the incumbent’s “reality show” style of politics and accusing him of focusing more on self-glorification than on the duties of his office.
“He hasn’t shown any interest in doing the work or helping anybody but himself or his friends or treating the presidency as anything more than a reality show to give him the attention that he craves,” Obama said. “But unfortunately, the rest of us have to live with the consequences.”

The rally in Flint, the first of two in Michigan scheduled for Saturday, marked Obama’s first joint appearance with Biden since the former vice president formally accepted the Democratic presidential nomination in August.
The former president maintained a relatively low profile throughout much of the 2020 race, only endorsing Biden in April after he had all but clinched the Democratic nomination.

Here’s the map I feel most confident about–Biden 351, Trump 187. I give this one a 30% chance of happening

This map if only the blue wall holds and the NC, GA, FL, and AZ efforts all fall short. Still 280 Biden, 258 Trump. I give this one 15% chance of happening

Honestly this is the only map I can think of for a Trump victory if he is able to hold on to Pennsylvania, without losing any sunbelt states (AZ, GA, FL) I give this 5% chance of happening

Here’s the Biden 375 map I mentioned earlier–Ohio and Iowa flip, but not Texas–I give this one 10% chance of happening

Here’s one where the sunbelt strategy pays off but not in IA and OH (389 Biden–149 Trump). I give this one 15% chance of happeing
And finally the map where Biden gets big wins in both the Midwest and Sunbelt (Biden 413–Trump 125). I give this one 8% chance of happening.

So roughly about 17% chance that another scenario plays out. None of this is scientific mind you.
