The outcome of this election is either Trump or not Trump, The election system has been specifically fine-tuned over decades so that it strongly favours Trump's party, despite him having fewer votes overall. There is one other party that is financially entrenched enough to have a chance at being voted, realistically.

Tackling the entire election process to actually catch up to democracies worldwide is a whole different topic altogether and realistically not achievable before this particular election, so if you are talking about preventing Trump via election (before Trump factually prevents being elected out of office during his term), the choice between either Trump or Biden is the reality.

The outcome is Trump or not Trump.

Nowhere does it say Biden has to be the candidate. Biden will only guarantee Trump.
