Front page news worldwide is that he called Zelenskyy ‘Putin’, and said ‘Vice President Trump’ when he meant Kamala Harris.
The write up in le monde isn't painting the best picture of Biden.
I was sure he wouldn't step aside but now that people in his own party are calling for him to go and worldwide media are all over it his position is looking pretty untenable.
So the situation is that the US has a president that isn't capable of running, which means they have a president currently who isn't able to do the role. If he limps through the campaign and wins (by Americans holding their nose) they're still left with a president unfit for office. Or they throw a hail Mary and get someone else in.
Or Trump gets in whatever, what an absolute shit show.

I think his candidacy is over, but he and his inner circle just refuse to accept it. Fuddling by is keeping them in denial, but he’s had two chances to wow the electorate after a bad fuck up, and he’s performed poorly.
I hope that they kept him in the race this long partly so he could rally NATO to their new commitments, but i expect the reality is just what it appears to be: he’s stubborn, and Dems are afraid of rocking the boat.
