Joe Biden is toast. With the media now sharply focused on his medical condition, the best scenario for Democrats is that the president resigns and turns the Oval Office keys over to Kamala Harris, his vice president.
The debate over Biden’s future has changed its tone and turned more urgent amid new reports that a neurologist specializing in Parkinson’s visited the White House eight times over an eight-month period. Reporters also testily sparred with White House officials recently over complaints that they’re not being candid with the media about the president’s health.
The discussions have shifted from concerns over Biden’s cognitive abilities to a possible medical emergency. It’s not just an elderly guy in decline any more.
