This is also an excellent point. Contra all the conspiracy thinking, anyone can run in most presidential primaries as long as they meet the filing requirements. That no one serious tried should be an indication they didn't think a challenge on whatever policy grounds would work.
if you’re going on and on about how Biden should step down and it’s because he bothers you for some other reason than fitness or electability I’m just gonna block you, thanks. we have processes for those gripes and unless your issue is crypto or crystals you didn’t even try

The theory of a sudden decline in the past few months at least fits the evidence.

And it makes more sense than a vast center-left conspiracy to hide uncle Joe's senile dementia.

Bad debate + bad polls + already heightened anxiety = stampede is probably still the best explanation, though. And there's really not much you can do about that but gut it out. Once panic sets in its nearly impossible to disconfirm without a cooling off period.

Because panicking people are hypervigilant.

My problem with the sudden decline people are the ones who also latched onto the Hurr report, the pre-SOTU biden is weak claims, etc. It seems like it's always Biden getting old suddenly, for years now.

Biden has frankly not looked good since he died while hiding in his basement in 2020
