chatham harrison is tending a new garden: That's where it gets so hard to talk about things on Bluesky specifically, because questions of capability quickly get confused with questions of moral rectitude

Read the Times story about Biden. They say he seems more visibly exhausted and physically frail than years ago, confuses names more. No real accusation of mental problems. Includes an anecdote of Biden yelling at Netanyahu. Sources speculate his schedule is too demanding relative to his age.

I am torn between "yes, Biden has clearly lost a step" & "this is really the best you can come up with?"

I know Biden is old. The question is always: is he capable?

Biden is capable. A lot more so than a ton of my fellow disableds on this website arguably, including myself.

He also has a good cabinet and a capable VP.
