13. Biden could have announced he wasn't going to run and Kamala would still have been our nominee.

Zero chance the same voters that propelled him into the 2020 Democratic nomination and voted for him again in the 2024 primary wouldn't have propelled Kamala into the nomination. So, we would have still ended up where we ended up, except I guess even more complaints about """rigging""" because a certain subset of voters on the left that just love to shit on our Democratic candidates are also the same ones on the left that can't muster up enough votes from our broad Democratic electorate to actually win a nomination, so they claim it's all """rigged""" rather than admit they don't appeal to the majority of voters.

And Biden would still be doing a better job at running the country than Trump or any other Republican has in my lifetime.
