Catch-22: (Assuming Biden wants to do what’s best for the country) He waits to see if his popularity among voters increases to a lead over Trump; if that doesn’t happen, it will then be too late to bow out in favor of a more effective alternative.
And what is the wait for? What likely events before November will improve his electoral standing rather than make it worse? Yeah, Trump could die, but that’s a sucker’s bet. What else?

There is not an effective alternative. Jesus christ
@Idissent Let’s say Biden manages to win in November. Yay! We’ve saved democracy! But we’ll have an enfeebled president. Is that what you want? Will Biden’s frailties get better as he gets even older? If Biden, with his growing negatives, can beat Trump, so can someone who at least looks vital and energetic, and can respond to the dire threats posed by Trump coherently, off the cuff, without a Teleprompter.

I don't know why you even think that. He has been beyond effective and will continue to be
@johnldeboer
No, it would seem that you're the one who has given up. You sound like the media. There is no viable alternative and there hasn't been. I'm 100% in for Biden
