If this family refuses to talk Joe down, it can only be because they personally and individually benefit from their proximity to power. It’s probably corruption, it’s likely elder abuse and it’s certainly dooming much of the western world to a fascist nightmare. The fact they’ll personally be at risk of reprisals from a new, emboldened Trump overseeing a weaponized executive branch will be karma for them, but sucks that everyone else will suffer too. Thx Bidens.

Right. It’s amusing seeing everyone argue about doing the right thing. This is all about power and money.
