Interesting conspiracy theory.

Musk, Ackman, Altman historically vote Democrat.

Dean didn't propose them as cabinet positions. He made an off the cuff joke.

Most Democrats want a different choice.

Why is competition within the party a bad thing? That anyone trying to compete must be a conspiracy by the others?

There's nothing wrong with competition within the party -- that's just a primary. What should clue you off is that Phillips announced yesterday he's considering a third-party run.

I don't think that follows. Biden is not a popular guy, and it appears his strategy is to crush all internal opposition while engineering a rematch with Trump (probably because he'd lose against anyone else).

What possible engineering could Biden do, even if he wanted to, to run against Trump? He’s ludicrously popular among the GOP.

For example, the New Hampshire Democratic primary is officially unsanctioned by the Democratic Party.
