    If he leaves the race now he will leave office with a positive legacy as an effective one-term president who saved the country from chaos and authoritarians in its time of need. He’s got a lot accomplished over the last 3.5 years and he’s been a calming and rational influence.

    If he stays in the race he will permanently tarnish his legacy, invariably lose the race (because the cast majority of voters have now lost confidence in his mental health), and usher in another spell of strident, dangerous ideology.

    I thought the whole reason he chose a younger, more middle of the road VP was to lay the ground work for her ascension. (If he didn’t think Harris was electable as President then he fucked up.) It’s time for Biden to hand the reigns over to Harris and see what happens.
