I think HRC was probably the worst candidate of all time, so yes I believe many could and would have beaten her.
but as I said Trump gets credit for winning his election. Mitch gets full credit for allowing the possibility of one of those seats.
The trump cult would do better for itself if was able to graciously offer credit to those who deserve it.
The same is true of DeSantis... he rose to prominence thanks to his Covid performance. he went against the guidelines of Trump admin early and often... and recently admitted that he regrets not doing so sooner. that type of self-reflection is a nice change of pace
