Feel like we don’t hear much from Biden since he dropped out of the presidential race? The problem is he’s still the president and he’s overseeing potentially grave and disastrous events on his watch. The admission that Biden is not capable of running for office also contained the obvious implication that he’s not capable of holding that same office at the moment. It’s reasonable to ask who is really in charge right now and what role his various advisors are playing. My fear is that he is merely a figurehead at this point being controlled by individuals in power around him acting as de facto powers behind the throne. Some of these people may have their own agendas that the American people may not be aware of, or agree with. In our fervor over the next election we’re neglecting the fact he’s still in power for five more months, during which the entire world could potentially change.

When I brought up a potential 2024 version of the Cuban Missile Crisis happening between now and the election (actually January 2025), everyone told me he was fine now that he didn't have to "campaign". :)

The hostage deal he pushed through for Evan Gershkovich made it seem like he’s very much in command. I just don’t think it’s true that “wouldn’t make it through for more years” = “incapable of being president right now.”

Don't worry. Biden is a puppet, so they briefed Kamala instead. Oh, and don't worry. Kamala is a puppet too, so the Party is handling things. Actually, do worry. Because the Party isn't really good at handling things. https://x.com/PhilGordon46/status/1817613702088073243

Is this not always the case for a president? Not in a conspiracy way but in a "checks and balances" or "the president is one person with a cabinet" kinda way?

He went from doing interviews with Complex to never appearing again. This is the worst fall off in hip hop history.

> My fear is that he is merely a figurehead at this point being controlled by individuals in power around him i feel the idea of assembling a cabinet and various appointees is that you... TRUST them to run the world according to their viewpoint and value system. i say a lot, "we don't just elect a president, we elect an administration." so... what if "the individuals in power around him" are... trustworthy? or, at the very least, aligned. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i'm just saying i don't see "Biden is incapable of being president right now" as a hugely valid argument simply because i feel he's been a very effective president on the legislative front (generally speaking) and i fully acknowledge that such a thing is herculean—and not solo—effort. running the country must be hard, but i feel like Biden probably has outstanding muscle memory for politics and is certainly aware of the burden of his role as president.

anyone who has read history or even played strategy games knows this would be an ideal time to make any move with a discounted weighted probability on U.S. intervention not sure why he would be considered fit atm to lead. it's not like we are the only nation in the world, it's a competitive environment

As a political commentator that you are, I’m sure you understand the difference between campaigning and governing. Aside from the point that in governing just like in business the loudest mouth is not always the correct.
