if this is true why is the dem party hell bent on keeping the candidate who isn’t actually engaging his base enough to make them want to go out and vote?

He's the only one that can beat Trump. But he can only beat Trump if everyone in the country turns out and votes for him.

Also, nobody look at how Republican voter participation changed between 2016 and 2020
