We continue to have a deeply divided Congress and electorate, a good chunk of which is still maniacally in Trump’s corner. A Biden-Trump rematch feels like a concession, as if we couldn’t do any better or have given up trying. The sentiment most Democrats seemed to muster in Biden’s favor while he was running was that he was inoffensive. Democrats and the media seem to have become more vocal in pointing out the hazards of Biden’s advancing age. When asked point blank whether it’s time for him to step aside, Biden said, almost tangentially, “I just want to finish the job.”
