The only way it *might* stop is if he does something that really demonstrates that he's got some crazy-youthful energy/stamina/whatever that he maybe doesn't actually have. He should probably be on every TV show possible right now, doing every interview he can, just relentlessly in our faces.

Maybe we could stop driving the narrative too. Just a thought

Now that SCOTUS basically gave immunity to sitting presidents in office, can't he simply send Seal 6 to take out (to lunch, of course) some of his opponents?

He should live-stream himself taking the LSAT. While he’s on a treadmill.

Only half-joking; he should challenge Trump to an MMA match.

Don’t agree w this. If we replace democratic primaries with “a bad news cycle picks our nominee” we’re cooked. Too old to do it and make the newspaper be nice to us are v different things

Olivia Nuzzi (yes I know) has a massive article in NYMag where she describes seeing Biden at a fundraiser in April where he asked her for her name. Joe Biden asked Olivia Nuzzi what her name was. It was joever a week ago but it's never been more joever than today, until tomorrow

I think if he stays in the should-he-drop coverage eventually stops or at least slows to a trickle as it no longer becomes practical, e.g. past ballot-printing deadlines. And Biden Old is baked in to some degrees. Might be more risk with a new candidate getting their own But Her Emails storyline.

Showing up in an ABC interview tomorrow night isn't going to fix it. He can come off absolutely perfect and it's not going to turn the tide of the current media narrative. It just won't. And again, this might not be fair to him, to his supporters, or to the country.
