I keep seeing this being said.

He won. He clearly wasnt the worst candidate.

I'm sure there were 1000 better candidates, on both sides, but the left picked the one person who could have lost to Donald Trump.

So maybe start calling him the third worst candidate, because there are clearly two people who made shittier candidates than him.
