Kamala's skill & intelligence is one reason I don't get very concerned about Biden's poor performance. Also, even though Biden has 8 years on me, I've noted, for at least 5 years my own cognitive abilities seem greatly diminished, late in the day, when fatigue sets in; and my voice also gets raspy. I don't think that's unusual for people in their 7th or eighth decades of life, but that doesn't mean they are not sharp throughout most of the day, or most of the time. Biden is a man driven by a compelling need to save what's left of our democracy, that's under assault, I tend to agree with the existence of that compelling threat. I also think that observing that threat, and the persistent popularity of the likes of Donald Trump, breaks statesman Biden's heart. Should Biden falter, I also think we would be in good hands, if the country were under the direction of a President Harris. Far better than in the hands of a business fraudster, convicted rapist, election cheater, serial justice obstructor, serial jury and witness tamperer, indicted for espionage and someone so self serving they would appoint radical right wingers to the Supreme Court, just to get the fundamentalist Christian vote; slipping by voters his party's hidden intent to kill regulations that keep us all safe. (Think about the overturning of Chevron Deference and know that the Roberts Court is just getting started shoving their wacky fascist ideology down Americans' collective throats. Dismantling Voting Rights & Roe v Wade was just the start of a much more sinister conservative fascist agenda, that will be implemented with Project 2025, if we don't shut down Trump & his radical insurrection loving party, first.)
