If you want to make the case that Biden should step aside anyway, that's fine. But the entire concept of giving the right speech or deploying the perfect "framing" to make this not look extremely bad for Democrats just isn't possible in the media environment we have.

Everyone who thinks they know the angle or speech that would work (including me!!!) needs to ask if they are thinking of a useful political strategy or just what would make for a good movie.

They’re already moving on to the “cover up” stage of this “scandal.” If Democrats had a single functioning testicle between them, every question about Biden’s fitness should be met with “your focus is on a bad debate while the other candidate is promising to jail and kill his political opponents.”

I mean also, running a candidate and deciding at the last possible second he's medically unfit and changing him in a panic doesn't so much look bad it's it just is very bad

I know low-info voters exist, but when people talk like this, I feel like they are suffering under a delusion that “the electorate” is some vague entity distinct from (and dumber than) themselves and their audience — as opposed to literally being all of us, collectively.
