Look at Ruth Bader Ginsburg. You gotta know when to let go of power to retain your legacy. She didn’t let go when she should have - everything she stood for is wiped out.

Personal hubris over the sake of the nation is not wisdom.

The experience with Feinstein is deeply worrying. If the Democratic leadership is willing to tolerate and enable that from its highest officials, do we really expect them to make the right choice here?

i don't. the cabinet and vp like the gravy train.they are not going to 25th amendment him unless say..intelligence agencies decide to dump the dirt they have on biden, as they have dirt on almost all politicians... i doubt the regular dnc will do anything.
