I think that’s easy to say in retrospect but at the time it was a huge risk. Again why would you not run an incumbent who won against the same guy last election? I agree he should have stepped down but the choice they made was rational. I still think it would have been an up hill election for dems regardless.
I think that’s an ok take I agree ideally he would have I just think people over play how easy the choice was. I also don’t think many people thought Trump was coming back from Jan 6 and all the criminal charges he was facing in 2020. I don’t blame them for running that strategy in the face of an insane authoritarian cult leader.
