I will be honest I never voted for Biden nor supported him because of his age and history, shaky making pragmatism the choice. I sincerely wished we had a better candidate.

Scientific American Backs a Presidential Candidate

Actually hotels, golf courses, and island resorts are Trump's thing. He is indifferent to churches and embraces Evangelical Christianity and Qanon, because as he says 'they like me,' but now they do not necessarily like Trump they use him for their own agenda.
Do you really believe it's a eugenics program?
The perfect is the enemy of the generally-adequate-but-thankfully-not-fascist.

Oh my goodness!?! Will it never stop?!? First, it's the Commies who endorse Biden and now it's the Nazis.
What next?
Will the Satanists support Biden?
Will the people running the child sex ring from the basement of a pizza parlor support Biden?
Maybe it will be the Catholics? That would surely anger the Trump-supporting Evangelicals.
It's really sad. All these groups supporting Biden are really doing nothing.
At least Trump's main supporter, Putin, is actively working to keep his chosen one in office.

Gee. The scientific community is biased against an anti-science president. What are they thinking?

Uh, actually they do.
You see by getting more people to believe in Christmas, they hope people will forget about Thanksgiving, and fewer of their species will get butchered and eaten.

Actually, it's an easy choice for any rational person.
Someone who opposes something, because he thinks he knows everything, will always oppose it because he wants to oppose it.
Someone who doesn't know about something, can learn it because he wants to know it.
Having said that, on what do you base your assertion that Biden "doesn't know it"?
Technological illiteracy.
So I find them both poor choices regarding science.

No need to wonder. You have had it since at least January 20, 2017.
One could also say that there has been separation of the Republican party and science for many years. The following analysis is from 2016 but the same issues have shown a division between science and the Republicans for any years:

You haven't been reading?
The funny one was Biden's referring to "iridescent" light bulbs.
This isn't to convince you though.

Yep, and I think that I can guarantee you that if "Scientific American" had endorsed Trump the rightests here would be overjoyed and never let us forget about it.
I do not know of a president that was ever very scientifically, medically or technologically savvy. In recent history it depends on how willing the presidents are willing to consult with and differ to scientists and medical authorities concerning matters of scientific and medical importance. For example Reagan refused to consult with scientists and medical authorities and ignored their advice concerning AIDS. In the last pandemic Obama consulted with and followed the recommendations from scientists and medical authorities. Biden states he will consult with and follow the appropriate authorities. Trump on the other hand, which please the fundamentalist Christians to no end, has ridiculed, rejected science, and appointed Fundamentalist Christians to most of cabinet positions in his government including selecting Pence as Vice President.

Does that make you incandescent?
At least iridescent is a quality of light.
Trump would not have even been in the same ballpark.
How many Trump's does it take to change an iridescent light bulb.
Impossible. Trump, "I know nothing."

Actually you could make an irridescent light bulb.
They would go well with some of the Tiffany or Galle glass lamps.
