    I suppose if you ignore almost everything else over the past 3 years and only look at the debate, you could make an argument that he’s not mentally cognizant. Or you could look at his track record and all of the stuff that his admin has accomplished after the disaster that was the trump regime.

    There’s no time to make a swap. If he stepped down immediately, there wouldn’t be a formal plan in place for days or weeks. After that, the execution of said plan will take months. There’s not time, that ship sailed.

      If you ignore his massive gaffe’s and the media’s lies about it over the past year you could make an argument nobody saw this coming. Instead everyone calling it out got accused of clipping Biden out of context and other smear attacks from liberal media.

      The 2020 Democratic primaries ended in August. There’s more than enough time to swap Biden out. I can’t even begin to understand this line of reasoning that it’s already too late.

      The last 4 years aren’t a great indicator of the next 4, not that theyve done a great job communicating over the former. Mental decline from dementia can be rapid and aggressive once it starts and the stress of the office is only going to make that worse.

        Which is why it’s good he’s surrounded himself with smart people that actually drive the decisions.

          Right but they’re not communicating what they’re doing which is why the voter base aren’t very informed on the merits of this administration other than that it’s not a Trump administration.

            I fully agree. His administration’s PR team sucks. They don’t need to go out and flaunt every time he had a successfully bowel movement, but at least parrot more of the everyday victories that people can relate to. Admittedly that’s not always super easy when under constant attack, but they need to be better.
