As obvious from his behavior, Biden is not all there behind the head gasket. Keeping a box of classified documents when you really shouldn't, we all know, is a crime; there are people rotting in prison for having a single page by accident.
Special counsel basically stated that there is no point punishing this well-meaning little old man, because he can't understand what's going on. Kind of like don't kick the dog when you find that he ate your couch - by then the dog can't really connect the punishment to the misdeed.
I suppose that Special counsel did not feel that Trump, who did pretty much the exact thing, was a well-meaning old man. Not that I am defending Trump, but it does give Trump supporters an argument about him not being treated equally.
Biden objected profusely, as senile people always do. He then confused Israel and Mexico in the next sentence.
The US really could use a president who is not senile. Or a conviced felon -- or both! Things are so absurd that sometimes I feel that I had failed to wake up from a bizzare nightmare.

I'd take any functional adult who knows what the Constitution is about and doesn't have a history of hurting people, at this point.
Quite a low bar.

Is it too much to ask for a president younger than 60 who wants to keep the country sane and together? Surely we can do better than these two

This about sums it up.
Nevermind their histories, their platforms, their whatever.
Let's completely divorce the politic from the person.
I don't want somebody who could be a great grandparent by now _running the executive office._
I think we can all agree there's got to be some better option.

Well, there's always the 25th Amendment...

Removing Biden seems unlikely, even if he starts spouting complete nonsense. It's comical to watch the Establishment jump in to defend his competence, when it is clear that he is not all there. And watching Biden himself going on about how he 'saved America' and will therefore be smart forever would be funny if he wasn't in charge of sending troops all over the world to stir up trouble to get re-elected.
Any honorable 81-year-old in his position would endorse a younger, more electable Democrat. I am leaning to thinking that Biden is truly an evil man, and if we get Trump again because of him, perhaps we are actually better off.
I am not really into politics all that much but how did biden get elected, to me it seems to point to a uneducated higly emotional population or election fraud or both. It was pretty obvious that he was unfit to run but people hated trump for XYZ so much that they voted for someone who shouldnt even be walking without fall protection.
It's really unfortunate that the people making decisions that we will live with for the rest of our lives only have to deal with the repurcussions of those decisions for the small remainder of their lives. Wouldn't it make more sense for people who actually have skin in the game be in charge of how it's run?
I admit I'm in a bit of a bubble since the majority of people I talk to plan on voting for Claudia & Karina (I have a pretty small circle), but I don't think I see a lot of enthusiasm for biden regardless.
