    Because Biden is a distasteful choice for president. That being said, there are no other strong options right now so we’re stuck with it.

      How so? The Rest is Politics identified a few candidates who are more than capable, Gavin Newsom among them.

        Sadly, I suspect the average voter isn’t really aware of who Newsom is. People are really disconnected from anything but the biggest headlines.
