lol no, the fact that you don't see the difference says a lot about you, though.

"Trump is the one who needs to get the nomination because then the Democrats will win" = a statement that the Democrats ought to actually support Trump in the primary and undermine/attack his opponents to ensure that he can win in order to gain partisan advantage.

"Trump can't win" = a generic statement that Trump is a weak candidate, not implying or stating anything from the 1st statement.

2 does not imply 1. A lot of additional assumptions and beliefs are required to be injected into 2 to cause it to result in 1.

I don't know any Republican who thought that Republicans ought to support Bernie Sanders in 2016 or 2020 because he would be less electable, even though he was widely believed to be less electable. Ergo, merely thinking a person is less electable does not follow that you ought to manipulate your opponents' primary to support them. It's a dangerous game, as you might be wrong and end up with your worst outcome. It's also unethical and generally perverse to try to manipulate your opponents' primary process instead of putting forth your own best candidate. I generally only see discussion of this from the Left. The Left, as always, lies to claim the Republicans as doing it as projection, then uses that to justify their own large-scale unethical conduct. They even coined a term for it "operation chaos". We saw them employ this tactic en masse in support of "Trumpy" candidates in 2022, with success, which is why they are doubling down on it for 2024.

Democrats have a strange form of mental perversion that even gives rise to this line of thinking. It's not normal to think this way. You share that mental perversion, as do authoritarian propagandists generally. So it's easy to see where the Democrats picked it up.
