I canceled my continuing donation of $50 a month to Biden‘s campaign on ActBlue. They ask for a reason and you can click other and explain your reasoning and I had to say that Biden is unfit to be president. My fervent hope is that this is a way to get through to our president that he must step aside and let a candidate run that can beat Trump.

So he’s unfit to be president despite him currently being president and doing a pretty good job?

I will not dispute that he has done a pretty good job. He got a lot done in his first two years, but the man I saw on that debate stage is not the man I voted for in 2020. I assume that at this point the staff that he has a assembled is carrying most of the load which I’m OK with for the rest of his term. I just think it’s unreasonable to think that he’s up for another four years of perhaps the most difficult job in the country. There is no shame in realizing that your capacity diminishes as you age. Perhaps 80+ years old would be OK for someone else but not for Biden.
