The situation is ridiculous. The sooner Biden gracefully defers to Harris, the better.

The much-heralded George Stephanopoulos interview will do nothing for Biden unless he succeeds in delivering a steady stream of Churchillian barbs while simultaneously juggling flaming torches.

I have been a staunch Biden supporter and consider him to have been the most effective president since FDR, but under these circumstances, the faster he gracefully hands the reins over to Kamala Harris the better.

Breaking clarification: Right-wing justices have been originating contempt for the constitution, not embracing some far-fetched interpretive principle of “original intent.” “We’re glad we were able to get to the bottom of this unfortunate misunderstanding,” said one of the justices.

Having seen the first female President sworn into office could help undecided voters get over the hump of having a hard time imagining such a paradigm shift. And watching her serve competently in that capacity would erase the perception of her as an ineffectual Vice President.
