    Personally I think Bernie would still easily steam roll trump and is far more popular than Biden. Only way he would run tho is if Biden stepped down which he won't.. but that's sorta the problem

    I don't think you can say what Bernie would do if Biden stepped down, he has stated that he will not run precisely because Biden is running again and he doesn't want to make any voters think he was an option, the incumbent is just automatically going to win the primary. He doesn't want to sour any voters that really wanted him to win the primary when there is no chance he will win going up against an incumbent. If Biden stepped down and it was an open DNC primary then I think Bernie would almost certainly run again.

    You are being weirdly stubborn in considering actual possibilities. I get that we are likely stuck with Biden but that's because Biden is going to run again, not because there are no other options. Biden is not a good choice though and he should honestly step down, there are way better choices. Newsom would also be better than Biden and you could be sure if there was a primary with no incumbent in it he would be in there.

    You are like a broken record. No democrat is going to run against incumbent it would be pointless, there is no chance they will win a dnc primary with Biden in the race. The incumbent always wins the primary and everyone knows that except apparently you, but that doesn't make Biden the best choice, far from it. Especially with the dnc canceling primaries where progressives might actually win like NH. The Marianne williamson run was just a protest run, she didn't think she would win.

    The problem is Biden is running again despite him saying in 2020 that he would be a 1 term president.

    Arnold Schwarzenegger.

    He's a proven leader, appeals to many on all sides of the political spectrum, and the supreme court has ruled they can't keep someone off the ballot, and neither can states, so if the Senate Democrats don't stop it then there's nothing that can be done about it.

    If the leader of an insurrection can be on the ballot, a foreign born American citizen can.

    Yeah, that's kinda my point. He's ineligible, but so is trump. The Supreme Court said that only Congress can keep someone from running, and the current Congress won't do it for trump, and may not do it for someone running as a Democrat, if they could beat trump.

    He's not running because he didn't think he could, but the general hasn't started, so he has time.

    Should we just go through everyone in the phonebook? Literally most people are better than Trump and/or Biden.

    Well, I don't vote in American elections. Unfortunately though, they impact the world.

    Why isn't anyone running against genocide Joe? Because the DNC decides who gets to run the country, not voters.

    Literally anybody could beat trump. The fact that you're failing to understand this very simple fact has actually become sort of a meme in real life.

    Feast your eyes.

    Do you not know what a write in candidate is?
