There seem to be quite a few candidates (Whitmer, Shapiro, Newsom) that have the experience and energy to beat Trump. I think we’ll be pretty excited to see someone who’s not a walking corpse speak about politics.

Enough is the answer. There are enough to make a difference unfortunately. All you need is about 50k votes in key swing states to win.
