I fail to understand why the Democrats haven't chosen him for the presidential elections - the 2024 and 2020 ones

In 2020, because they actually wanted to defeat Trumpism. But they do not, the DNC is run by PR consultants who enjoy both making a payday during the election, win or lose, AND then enjoy the GOP tax cuts for their ill-gotten gains, literally incentivizing them to lose. And he's not running in 2028. Assuming there is an election at all, the DNC will run Gavin Newsom on their usual losing platform of "What the GOP said, but 5% more woke."
