re: Biden has already won the election.

DeSantis is clearly more worrisome candidate.

That's fantasyland.

DeSantis lost probably the bulk of the MAGA vote when he ran this year. His subsequent campaign did zero to change that and, at times, made him look anything but formidable. Without that base, he didn't have a prayer of winning the primary, much less the general.

This long held largely republican political idea that taking a position slightly to the other side of your opponent is the way to win elections is baffling. Bush senior ran as a continuation of Reagan politics. He lied. His dipshit son ran on non-intervention and a host of other issues he didn't believe in before becoming a warmongering globalist that grew governmment to levels that made Obama jealous. The next two tries at toeing the middle failed miserably and LEAD to Trump. Right now, there is NO option besides Trump who can defeat the left and that's because he's the only one that is playing politics the least. He's the one who has actually done something about immigration, trade, deescalation overseas, reforming tax code... the rest push for more war and otherwise sound like Biden. How is that any threat to the left?
