Even suggesting Bernie or Biden stepping in at this point is a red herring.
Over half the state's filing deadlines are either already past or come up in the next week, and early/absentee ballots starts getting mailed out in some states as soon as mid-September so that there's a full 30 days before the due date.
That's why they call it an October surprise -- it's past the point of who is on the ballots.
So republicans are counting on electing a dumpkopf by default since they want to get his opposition off the ballot "after the filing deadline". Except I'd be willing to bet that Trump would lose to a write in candidate. Or perhaps, for those THINKING conservatives, they might give a long hard look to Gary Johnson since their vote would no longer be "against Hillary" and the Libertarian would finally be "the other party".

I'm confident there is more but I'm not wasting my time looking for them,
are you still interested in making that bet?
