Because running against Trump has worked so well for them so far, right?

I haven’t really seen anyone try to run against him. They’ve put people on the same ballots as him, but none of them have run a serious campaign that attempted to connect with voters.

He has never won against a man. I'm not just talking Biden, he's ran for president multiple times.

This is true, but I am talking about House and Senate members running for the midterms. Being anti-Trump isn't enough.
