hey, 4 out of 20 on this board voted yes

I'll go public and say I was one of those four. I probably should have gone with "maybe", but I voted yes. 

The reason for that is that I think the biggest problem with Biden is not that he's no longer "there", but that he's a doddering old man who simply isn't quick enough any more to do something like a debate. 

But the presidency isn't a debate. The President isn't a quarterback who has to make lightning-fast decisions while the blitz is coming. The President has an army of advisers, can have people collating all the necessary information to make decisions and do his job, and can take the time to think about things. When his job is making decisions with the immediacy most often measured in hours or days, not seconds or minute, I think he's still able to do the job. 

That said, I don't think he has the mental capacity to run for the job, which is a whole different set of skills. It requires public appearances like the debate where he certainly didn't show out as someone who trust to be the leader of the free world. You're not going to get elected looking like he looked last Thursday night. The debate was the chance to dispel all the "Sleepy Joe" criticism, and instead he validated it. 

If Joe Biden is too mentally incompetent to stand trial, per Special Counsel Hur, he's too mentally incompetent to serve as president.

winner winner chicken dinner. 

still ASTONISHES me that this did not get wall to wall coverage in the corporate media and wasn't a massive scandal/story. should've been the biggest story in years if not decades and the implications of it are that either Biden's DOJ is insanely corrupt or that the 25th amendment needed to be invoked immediately.

It's funny.  In most polls, if you ask people if they are better off than they were 1, 2, 5, 10 years ago, the overwhelming answer is yes.  As soon as you tie it to politics, the answers change.  The majority of Americans are better off now, than they were in 2020.  And the majority of us were better in 2020 than in 2016.  But when you tie it to Presidential election, and people pick up on context clues, the answers change.  "Four years ago" shifts the narrative.

Betting odds ... Harris is at 17.5%, Joe is at ... 9.7%.    Trump at 55.8%.

Tides begin to turn on Joe Biden post-debate (thehill.com)

I think he resigns before August.

"reports" are that Biden's wife and son are telling Joe he's fine and continue on running.

this man is a know nothing do nothing 60 year career life-long politician. translation: he's a corrupt morally bankrupt ego-maniac psychopath who thinks he's the most awesome thing ever and was born to lead. god chose him to lead us sheeple for 60 years. people like him don't give up their power willingly. this guys entire adult life has literally been in politics and about trying to ascend to the presidency.

i don't think it is likely at all that he just resigns. i think it's likely they force him out somehow someway- 25th amendment perhaps- and replace him as the nominee at the Dem convention with Gavin Newsome.

Not sure I would be so confident about “ majority” being “ better off” now than 2020.  

and what does it even mean?   Making more? Having your money be worth more or less than 2020?   Safer?  Happier with the direction?

And how much of it is actually impacted by POTUS?
