It’s obvious who would beat him now.

Yet here we are, with the party in full freak out mode to stop the guy.

The DNC helped bring you Trump. The DNC is working to keep Trump.
I don't know who would be the best candidate to beat Trump. All of them are in the negative when it comes for favorable/unfavorable ratings as is Trump.

Perhaps the question is, what are the voters looking for? Independents especially as it was Independents that gave Trump the White House. The general election certainly is a lot different than the primaries. Perhaps, like in 2016, most voters aren't happy with the choices being provided. We know for certain the majority aren't happy with Trump. But will they be happy or at least look at Trump being a bit worst than the Democrat, whoever that is?

Answers that can't be had until the Democrats choose a candidate. Then the numbers will tell the story. Was their choice right or wrong?

It's high past time that we start electing Americans to congress and the presidency who put America first instead of their political party. For way too long we have been electing Republicans and Democrats who happen to be Americans instead of Americans who happen to be Republicans and Democrats.
