I do think Biden wants to win, but I don't think the DNC minds losing to Trump. There's many ways in which it's convenient for them, whether they realize they themselves are fascists yet or not they can rationalize it over the Gazan "thing" (I'm in their brain) or fundraising they can launder to their consultants. The media bloodbath is consistent with this analysis.
