Opinions differ (I know, that's a shocker, right?). You maintain that Joe Biden is "clearly incapable of discharging the duties of his office," yet he has quite evidently been doing so with some notable successes. Granted that he is old and appears frail, his main problem is in spoken communication. He has never been a great public speaker, however, and I am in agreement with you that his debate performance was a debacle. I'm probably not alone in believing that had Biden completed his run for a second term, he too would have been defeated by Donald Trump.

Joe Biden will go down in history as one of three or four worst presidents this country has ever had. He's always been a fool, of course, and as president he was a senile old fool. The Great Afghanistan Skedaddle of 2021 was merely the overture to a string of catastrophes, foreign and domestic.

I always enjoy your commentary, Thomas. Thank you again. I agree, this coverup should be a national outrage and scandal but we have all been watching it happen for so long that we are outraged-out.

As a lifelong member of Nit-Pickers Anonymous, I have to push back on your statement about the "...worst scandal, bar none, in the history of the American presidency" .

I don't agree with your assessment that it was "... the years-long coverup of President Joe Biden’s mental and physical deterioration since taking office in 2021." Unless "new shit comes to light" (as it did for The Dude in "The BIg Lebowsky"), the worst scandal was undoubtedly that of Woodrow Wilson, whose deliberations and decisions, from the time of his incapacitation by stroke in 1919 to the official end of his Presidency in 1921, were managed and conveyed by his wife, Edith, who acted as the President's self-appointed personal representative and Chief of Staff, as well as wife. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/woodrow-wilson-stroke

No, the Biden scandal is worse. The coverup began in the early days of his presidency and it involved a lot of people—journalists most definitely included. Kamala Harris knew the truth but lied to the public, falsely claiming that Biden was in tip-top shape. But he wasn’t. Indeed, he was clearly incapable of discharging the duties of his office. The gaslighting went on for YEARS, until Biden’s debate disaster laid bare his incapacity. And he’s still the president, if only in name. No wonder that American foreign policy is a disaster. No wonder that Donald Trump is now the president-elect.
