The new Republican defense of Trump is to attack his motivation for demanding an investigation of the former vice president by claiming that Joe Biden is not a legitimate contender for the Republican nomination. Trump has been obsessed with Biden for years. Trump has viewed Biden as his most likely Democratic opponent for a very long time.
It doesn’t matter of one supports Joe Biden or not. On the basis of the polling evidence, Joe Biden is a legitimate contender for the Democratic nomination. Pretending anything else is true is a complete denial of reality.
