    Ok, but we knew this was on the table when he was elected to his first term. We could have backed Bernie, who yes is older than Biden, but hasn’t lost a step.

    We need to stick it out with Biden for the moment, but need to immediately find a successor.

      4 or 8 years ago, nobody know which elderly politician would start to be senile first. Once it starts it gets rapidly worse.

      They have known for months, hence hiding him. That has backfired as now there is less time to find a suitable replacement. His while reason to run was to keep Trump out.

      Well, his whole reason to step down should be to keep trump out.
