Passionately stated. But can anyone other than Biden beat Trump? Harris is amazing but she’ll never beat Trump. It’s too great a risk. A Trump presidency would be the end of our Nation as a democracy. Even if Biden declines in his second term, he will gather around him amazing people to lead as he has done already. This is far preferable…

This is far preferable to the end of democracy under treasonous traitor dictator Trump!
I remind myself that two of Harris's attributes which enhanced Biden's candidacy—being Black and a woman—would not serve her well in this climate in a general election.
So the Trump Inc. civil case will wipe out Trump's cash reserve and may result in any loans he has being called.
But, what happens when Trump is found guilty in any of his 91 indicted crimes? So he is sentenced to even 1 year in prison. That will likely bring him past the 2024 election and the inauguration in 2025. Other than the die hard MAGAts who would vote for him?

And, remember FDR who was so ill yet his opus continued to lead us out of Depression and War.
"Harris is amazing but she’ll never beat Trump. "
We will obviously never know the answer, but, I think Harris could have beat Trump about the head like Mohammed Ali whipped George Frazier.
She was a prosecutor for goodness sake. Prosecuting Trump while running for President would have been cake for her.

I am not so sure. We all are extrapolating Hillary Clinton's loss too much.
Hillary was a special case. Harris does not have the Bill Clinton albatross around her neck. Not even close.
Nec,
What if the widely held hypothesis that Harris cannot win is false? What if she can?
I think she could for sure. I would love to see rip Trump apart in a debate.
What if our hypothesis that BIDEN can win is false?
I mean, we really don't know. We are just using our imagination to tell us what our biases want us to hear.

Lots of people. Americans love Trump.
