it's moot bc Trump will prob just get re-elected

Recap
- Everyone hates Warren, strongly, except for her supporters. If she wins the nomination, moderates may not rally behind her
- Bernie hates women, Dems will undercut him Hillary style
- Buttigieg too rodenty, needs grown-up haircut
- Biden too weak to beat Trump head to head, looks like he had a stroke, sounds like he doesn't know where he is
- Klobuchar too irrelevant, once ate a salad with a comb

we got nothin

unless.....
