Because Trump is just that bad. People see Joe Biden as a sensible alternative. I shouldn't have to say that but there it is.

They have to keep Biden a front runner because of the impeachment quid pro quo farce. They just can't abandon him while the hearings are on going.
I'm guessing once we learn who his running mate is it will all make sense who they really want as president.
He is going to pick Hillary for VP.
He's going to take Warren's advice and pick a 9 year old transgender as VP.
Plenty of Woke votes for the taking and he gets some quality hair-sniffing time in meetings!!!

Because it's rigged.
I'm not a fan of Bernie Sanders, but I don't want to see his campaign get sabotaged by his own party. Again.
It appears it's already happening.

I’m starting to think the Iowa App Debacle isn’t as much about “who” won but the turnout results for the Dems.

The Dems can't even find healthy candidates to be their front runners. Pathetic.

The debunked "Russian influence" nonsense is infantilizing liberals The Russian money spent to influence the election was negligible. Its persistence as an explanation is bad for Dems
To begin with, both the Russia Scare and the Brown Scare betray a profound contempt on the part of members of technocratic neoliberal national establishments for voters who support populist causes or candidates. These voters are assumed to be gullible dimwits who are easily manipulated by foreign propaganda or domestic demagogues. Even worse, attributing populism to the irrational impulses of maladjusted voters prevents embattled establishments on both sides of the Atlantic from treating specific grievances of those voters as legitimate.Worst of all, the myth that Russia swung the 2016 US presidential election from Clinton to Trump, and endlessly repeated comparisons of current events to the rise of the Nazis in Germany's Weimar Republic, provide the managerial overclasses in Atlantic democracies with excuses to increase their near-monopoly of political, economic, and media power by freezing out political challengers and censoring dissident media. If most opponents of neoliberalism are Russian pawns or potential Nazis, then mere disagreement with neoliberal policies on trade, immigration, taxation, or other subjects can be equated with rejection of liberalism or democracy, if not outright treason. Confronted with peaceful challenges via the voting booth to neoliberal orthodoxy from outsiders on both the populist right and the socialist left, the instinctive reflex of many in the besieged establishment is to call for censorship and repression.
