A Weakened Biden Vs. Trump or Someone Else?

 Biden has dug in his heels, claiming this next election is to important and his experience is required, which is admirable in its own way - I guess.  

Or is it that thing that happens with older people when they just aren't ready to hand you the keys to their car, fearing loss of their own independence, without thinking of the consequences to others?

It's true that this next election is important and his experience is important - but he could be a top advisor to the next candidate?

One thing I do want to draw everyone's attention to is this - look at how we Democrats handle our candidates when all is not as it should be.

We don't pretend behavior is normal when it's not, we don't act like he's an infallible God who never makes mistakes, and we think about what's best for this country - unlike like Trumpers do.

That is because contrary to Trump-Republican Kool-Aid belief, we don't have a cult-like mentality - definitively proving that once again, Trump-Republican accusations that we're the brainwashed ones is total projection.

We're worried for him, for his well-being, as well as the well-being of this country, with him beginning to totter like this.

As sharp and fit as my grandfather was at 82, there were some things that started to worsen, and I'd not want him to do it for his own health (not that he would've wanted to do it, anyway.)

Trump's defense of him was predicted, both because of age and because his team knows how to undermine him with falsehoods via social media; anyone else, they've have to start again 😂

But will Trump's semi-defense of Biden undermine his own strategy of attacking him with falsehoods?

Because one of his attacks on him was calling him "Sleepy Joe," which curiously stopped after he fell asleep in court himself on several occasions 😂 

(Oh, wait, no - he was just "resting his eyes" 😉😉😉)

I guess only Trump can throw shade at him, no one else? 

Biden pretending nothing's wrong?

And we're all supposed to play along, like it's one big hug dysfunctional family  😂

Well, when it comes to American politics, that might actually be the case!

No thanks, I lived that life way too long already, it's not healthy to "pretend" so much, either for the person, the "family," or the self.

Truth is always the healthiest in the long run, even when it's uncomfortable - inconvenient.

Thus, though it makes me immensely sad, because I do admire Biden, and his wanting to fight to the end, I do have to say - a weakened Biden is no match for Trump, and I don't think it's good for his health, and perhaps the health of our country - so I think he should step aside and be an advisor for the next candidate 😢

Regardless, I don't know who we would get, this late in the game. I'd be fine with Kamala, even better, IMO, but not sure about the rest of the country. 

HOWEVER - if Biden is our candidate, then I will vote for him - because literally just about anyone is better than Trump - Republican, Democrat, Independent, I don't care.

Trump is too authoritarian, too crooked, too emotionally immature, too hot-tempered, too greedy, and too selfish.

Worse, he's been too divisive for this country, and not because he necessarily believes all the stuff he's peddling -  but for his own glory.

Because he knows that peddling uneducated ignorance and lack of religious free will unite the fringe conspiracists, the religious-fanatics who negative God-given freewill,  untreated  (or not properly treated) addicts/alcoholics and the mentally ill, who don't think clearly, greedy, unethical businessmen who care about nothing but money and themselves/their own families, racists, misogynists, and bigots together to back him - and unfortunately, there are a LOT of these people in our country.

Hillary pegged it right when she called half of them a "basket of deplorables." 

We shall see ...
