I'm sure this is what the Dems are planning and hoping for at the moment, but to get to that stage they still have to win the election and therefore must have some confidence that the current ticket can beat Trump, which is the part that surprises me.

Obviously the reality is that those with enough power to do anything about the situation don't really care who wins either way, it's not like their lives will be negatively impacted by it.
