Biden will also have the full weight of Bloombergs team on his side now which proved to be a fearsome back room operation, it was a miracle Bloomberg did as well as he did frankly.

I think if any of the Democratic candidates were half competent, they would win against Trump, but I've definitely got a lower trust in Biden's competency than I do most of the other candidates. I'm still pretty optimistic on the Democrats odds regardless of who their nominee is, but I definitely see more paths for this to go off the rails with Biden.
I'm also not convinced Bloomberg will have much of an impact in the general. He's one guy with a lot of money. There are a lot of guys with a lot of money who will be behind Trump, enough to cancel out Bloomberg's impact, even if he's fully engaged in the general, which I'm not sure he will be. I think he was in this to make sure a progressive didn't win.
