what if we had a president who was actually going to have to live with the consequences of what they chose to do?

It looks like they are getting that matchup since DeSantis is too far behind Trump and RFK Jr is too behind Biden.
Hard disagree. That would be much worse than an election involving Biden. Biden, at least, is sane, reasonably competent, and non-fascist.

Hopefully by 2028 Trump dies so it's not Trump and his massive-ass base vs the newcomer Dem candidate.

Neither one is likeable. You are going to have people who would normally vote for either party who don't like their candidate, or the other sides candidate. It is a recipe for massive numbers of people not wanting this matchup.
I don't want a rematch of Biden vs Trump because I don't want Trump to be a part of it.
I do, however, want Biden again.
But horse race polls by media companies are rubbish anyway only designed to give the illusion of a close race for ratings.
Due to the hyperpolarized political climate, could we not just be seeing the Democrats not wanting to see Trump on the main ticket + Republicans not wanting to see Biden?
It's a bad headline. What it should say is "a record number of Americans don't want to see either trump or Biden in the 2024 election"
neither Trump or Biden
Well prepare for disappointment, and make it double.
