I mean, Trump is an insane felon rapist and a lot of people still voted for him. There’s no rule that says we have to honorably give a shit about if our candidate comes off as slightly addled, especially when we’ve got a perfectly good VP who can take over as soon as he makes it past the post.

There's no *rule*, but Trump's voters don't care because they're cultists and Biden's do because they're pragmatists. Comparisons between the two voter bases are mostly pointless.

I could not give less of a shit about Biden or his mental abilities, but I do care about winning, and I am not sold that ditching him improves our odds of winning

And Trump couldn't stand working more than 3 hours a day, nor could he work a five day week without having to take a golfing vacation. He famously spent more time on Twitter than he spent governing.

Hey, I'll vote for a literal puppet on a stick if that's who the Democrats nominate. They can weekend at Bernie's him for all I care. But will everyone, is the question.

There's even a campaign line in there if they have the stones for it: "What VPs are Actually For" etc. etc.

Remember Aesop's fable about the frogs who wanted a king? They got a log as king, and were fine, but it was boring. So they asked for an active king, and they got a stork, and were eaten.
