My response to that would be that in 2020 he had the weakest campaign and still had the majority of voters rally behind him.
The person with the second most support in the party is just as old and is continuing to endorse Biden.
Anybody but Harris at the top of the ticket as a replacement means whoever gets the nomination will have a billion dollar deficit in running against Trump, meaning they have no shot at winning (seeing that they would be running against the only person in modern history who has won an election despite raising less money).
If Biden’s mind is as bad as we think it is, Kamala has been acting as president. She’s been a fairly good president, all things considered.
If Biden can’t win this, nobody in the roster can.
At this point, I think there’s an argument that Biden stepping aside as the candidate and endorsing Harris is the best play. Not because I think it’s a good idea, but because Biden is simply not performing as a winning candidate right now. Even with the onslaught of bullshit from the press, trolls, and conservatives I can’t justify his lack of urgency and getting in front of cameras. I desperately want SOTU Biden to show up at his press conference tomorrow, I just don’t have a ton of confidence he will anymore. That guy CAN win.
The problem is (for me at least) he’s recently shown he can’t campaign like he did in 2020, and he needs to surpass that effort right now.
