Nailed It! Commenter of the Week
Meet Abe
“I'm originally from Wisconsin and now a 45 year old manager at a tech company in California. I lean right so my life is a blend of Kafkaesque anonymity and tech company absurdity (ie: I am not Abe Froman, the Sausage King of Chicago). Also, nothing in the Twitter files surprised me at all.
I am living proof of Matt's theory that they've forced the county into political corners but I wasn't always like this. I have watched Biden's Hindenburg-like in amazement and I think what's going on right now in the country is the strangest stuff I have ever seen. I'd rather not be political. I'd rather just work and go on vacation but obviously things are going off the rails in America.”

Who's Running This Country?
If it happened in Belarus, Burundi, or Myanmar, Joe Biden’s blitzkrieg withdrawal from the presidential race would have inspired eye rolls. We jettisoned an incumbent president’s re-election campaign with all the pomp of an NFL practice squad transaction, announcing the move via a blip of a social media post. Only in America is anyone tempted to take such head-scratching events at face value.

Campaigning is clearly more difficult than governing the US. I don't know why that's not alarming.
At least Biden is keeping his campaign promise to be a one term President.
A better analogy would be breaking up with a girlfriend and continuing to live together until the lease is up. It's almost assumed at this point that Biden hasn't been doing much day to day for a while, so what's wrong with riding it out for 6 more months?
