I think there’s a little bit of hero worship. Seeing Bartlet struggle over impossible decisions, coming to the least bad solution, often failing but always trying, that’s how they imagine Biden behind the scenes. Or Obama, or even Clinton. They picture a room of impossibly competent and ideologically diverse paragons of civic duty respectfully debating the decisions of the day.
So when Biden does something horrible, they can rationalize that the alternative must have been worse.
The real delusion is that they are picking a candidate at all. The game is rigged, and the money picks the candidates.
I mean, I’m sure they’re getting their money’s worth, but it’s still better than Trump selling Goya shit from the resolute desk. Vote for Biden, and when Trump’s in jail we can talk about what to do about corruption.
