What are peoples thoughts on him? I personally think he’s a decent enough guy who is about 10 years too old for the role he’s in and he’s a bit of a train wreck when put in front of a microphone. If he were to run again in 3 years for the presidency I dread to think how he’d do against a coherent republican candidate. He’s been sandbagged by Trump with this Afghanistan situation and that’s completely unfair but he’s not helping his own PR cause by appearing to be a confused old man when in front of the cameras. He doesn’t convey any authority whatsoever and makes most of us pine for the days when Barack Obama was clear and concise in the application of his speeches.
Biden is a decent guy and the US is for certain better off with him in charge than Trump but if Kamala Harris or Alexandra Occasional Cortex were to step in tomorrow I doubt many would begrudge the change (other than the sexists and the racists).
Am I wrong on Biden? Is he better than how I perceive him to be?
Joe Biden

Yea and I wanted Biden to win, too, as he was the lesser of 2 evils. I didn’t think he’d be great but I also didn’t think he’d be THIS bad.
It is worrying because America are arguably the most powerful country in the world, certainly in the west, and they don’t have the brightest voters out there. And if Biden continues failing, the reluctant Republicans who voted Biden will feel they made a mistake that they won’t make again in 3 years time.
There should be more scrutiny on Biden than on any of his predecessors because all his failings will be held against him in the next election when he’s likely up against Trump again.
People won’t admit it, but Trump was a shoe in for a 2nd term before his woeful handling of the pandemic and the BLM stuff came to light. A lot of that will be forgotten when he runs for a 2nd term

He won’t run, he just wants his cult to think he WILL run.

Biden won't run for re-election. He's giving the keys to Kamala who's vacationing somewhere I'm guessing.
It's either Desantis or Trump on the Republican side if I had to guess.

You say Rebublican as if they’re not a fascist cult, they have more in common with the f*cking Taliban than they do Americans.

I hope the Republicans actually remember that showing some respect and pride for the job is still a thing but they won't, they will go for the biggest but job that isn't Trump if he doesn't run and that will be DeSantis who is nothing short of a disgrace himself.
But none of it matters in the end, if only the religious cants cared for anything more important than abortion the Republicans would never win an election again.

I see former president Trump has an important engagement lined up for 911. 20th anniversary.

Because that's what it's called? I will call Republicans conservatives or GOP too. I call Democrats, democrats. Sometimes, liberals and/or progressives. What's the problem?

Agree with a lot of this take.
However, I think we will see that big shift in the mid term election next year. I expect the Republicans to retake the house and gain seats in the Senate. Not sure the numbers but I have an idea what the trend will look like.
Hell, I'll ballpark it now so I have written down somewhere. Current makeup:
House: 220 (D), 212 (R), 3 (Vacant)
Senate: 50 (D), 50 (R)
I think in the House, Republicans will have around 250, probably lower. It's a ballpark figure based on previous midterms and the last election.
Senate, I'm not sure. 5 (R) senators are retiring. I'm not convinced those seats will get flipped. I do think Raphael Warnock's (GA) spot are in danger. Mark Kelly (AZ) and Marco Rubio (FL) were in danger but I'm not sure anymore. Think he's safe for now. I'll say 51-49 (R).
