Assigned Media: I think if he's in cognitive decline he may have more trouble convincing people he's not which will make it more difficult to win in November, but I agree- Reagan already proved a President can run the country effectively with Alzheimer's, so I don't see why I need to worry about Biden there.

for me the Biden conversation is entirely about whether he can win in November. i’m not worried about whether he can actually do the job because i don’t think it’s a real job.

Reagan really losing it actually improved his Presidency since it let Nancy pull off a palace coup to depose arch-conservative and Iran Contra participant Don Regan from the Chief of Staff role and replaced him with (relative) moderate Howard Baker

how would you say that compared to Edith Wilson taking over for Woodrow?

Who will Jill shove out the back door?

more like hanging around the neck of a country being run by others

But that's the thing: As far as parts that matter go, the administrative team we're electing is far more important than the president himself.

yes I am aware of how my country works

I mean it’s still really not ideal!

What would be ideal?
