lol, no. I would absolutely love to have another option, but it’s not going to happen.

Not in America.
Our only real say is in primaries. And even that’s debatable since the official position of the DNC is a primary isnt a real election, and they can influence it as much as they want because it’s nonbinding and if they wanted it can just be skipped.
I think he means an option with a chance of winning.

If Trump wins, probably, just not in the way you mean.
A left-leaning voter voting third party is just half a vote for Trump. There’s zero chance of a remotely left-leaning third party winning the presidency.
(I say “left-leaning”, but the U.S.'s “left-leaning” is what the rest of the world would call “conservative” at best.)
Americans suck and will not vote for a good government. They will vote for a bad government or a worse government, and there’s not enough people who will vote for the third option for it to be viable.
The idea that you are satisfied with who you vote for and happy with the government is something your civics teacher should have beaten out of you. Americans don’t get nice things.
I agree with your post except for the implication that the American voters and/or civics teachers are at fault. The way voting works in the U.S., it’s just not possible to vote our way out of this mess.
This is like that time that I won like $800 betting that Trump would lose the election after he lost the election.
“Thousands” of Americans betting on something happening isn’t an indication of likelihood nearly as much as it’s an example of wishful thinking and/or the Dunning-Kruger effect.
The article doesn’t even say thousands of people. It says thousands of dollars.
Thousands? So like all the rich people who donate to alt-right interests? Of course they are, they want the world to be their slaves.
In general, you don’t even run for president in the first place unless you have an absolutely massive ego, so of course he won’t drop out.
Of course he won’t. He should, but he won’t.
It’s not impossible, but will take a significant medical event for him to do that.
He needs to, but DNC hubris will keep him in
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Thousands of dollars have been placed on the possibility of President Joe Biden standing down as the Democratic candidate in 2024, as the incumbent’s approval ratings remain low.
It comes amid low approval ratings, concerns about his age, criticism of his handling of a number of crises and remarks made by Biden himself.
Previously, Biden, 81, said he doubtfed he would run for a second term if Trump had decided not to enter the race to try to win back the White House in 2024.
Biden’s polling numbers are struggling and a survey conducted by the American Research Group from December 17-20 indicated 57 percent of responders disapprove of his presidency.
Several polls also show Trump pulling ahead of Biden in a head-to-head, according to analysis website FiveThirtyEight.
An alternative in Vice President Kamala Harris may not be a preferred choice for voters, with her own approval rating averaging around 37 percent.
