Can anyone point me to a non-biased source that outlines the basic platforms of the two parties?

I don’t care about that, just can’t seem to find anything of value on the basic party platforms.

If you find anything resembling a “platform” for Trump, please do let all of the rest of us know. I have not come across any such animal in my internet wanderings.
Biden has been slightly—but to be fair, only slightly—more detailed than Trump, but at least he has an inkling of what the issues are that will face the next administration. This isn’t a policy or platform election—I think it is literally about the preservation of democratic norms and a test of whether the American public is ready to punish and reject those who flout them. If they aren’t, it probably no longer matters which party is in power or what their “platform” is.
