They aren't the best we're able to come up with; regardless of your political camp there's probably tens of thousands, if not millions, of better candidates in our population of 300,000,000. Biden and DJT aren't even the "best candidates" inside their own parties!

All Biden and DJT represent is what the DNC and GOP want to have in the race and that's all.

It's about winning, that's mostly it. The US elections are more of a popularity contest for way too much of the electorate.
