∞ Monkeys: Were you unhappy with the job Biden was doing before last week? I wish there was someone who could jump in & obviously win, but the people blaming Biden for the price of eggs & Gaza aren't going to go away. Let's see what happens in the next couple weeks before dooming.

Why would a major civilization-ending crisis be a reason to NOT replace the person who cannot do the job with someone who can?

I rarely saw him, like the rest of us. I assumed the person we saw at SOTU was how he always is. And maybe it was, back then. I'm not saying this to be mean. What I saw was terrifying.

I'm probably more of a political news nerd than you. Biden is more prone to brain farts & his voice is often too whispy for what you want from a POTUS, but his mind is working. The start of the debate was *rough*. The fact that Biden picked up as it went along makes me think "bad prep" was a factor

I'm willing to give him a couple weeks to do some things to show he's not going to have a repeat in the debate in September, which is the one that might actually matter. If it's not Biden, the nominee is Harris, unless you think Obama & the Clintons will lean on delegates to pick someone.

The fact remains that Trump is unfit for the office & we were always looking at election where ~ 46% of people want the guy, while another 10% want a pony. No new candidate changes that equation, so I'm not ceding an inch of ground to the NYT Editorial Board.

For the voice thing- this was today & no one is talking about it here. Biden sounds like he's sounded in the last few years. Either he had a cold, or he blew his voice out in the debate prep. It's also a good speech for the moment. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rPH...

I feel bad disagreeing about this.

Or he has a prompter? Having *some* good days simply isn’t good enough. If this was Trump everyone would all be screaming 25th amendment. The White House is not a retirement home.
