The irony is that if it werent for covid, he probably would have croaked by now from having to run an actual campaign. Then again we all know if it werent for covid he would have lost spectacularly because he doesnt have the energy or capability to run an actual campaign. They would have run with the Bideninthebasement strategy with or without covid, all it did was provide cover for him.

I really dont see him making it long in office, especially when the stress of the job starts. Then again, maybe his old-man zero-fucks-given energy is strong enough that he wont even care about the job and will just be like, “fuck this emergency meeting with the joint chief’s of staff, I’m taking a nap.” Reminds me of the Seinfeld joke: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT-sBagXbT0

Biden probably won’t have the energy to take his job seriously, he will likely leave everything up to Kamala and the Cabinet, “whatever they think is best”.

Biden might lose or forget the nuclear codes, as happened with Bill Clinton & Jimmy Carter: https://abcnews.go.com/WN/president-bill-clinton-lost-nuclear-codes-office-book/story?id=11930878 https://timeline.com/jimmy-carter-once-sent-launch-codes-to-the-cleaner-and-other-scary-tales-of-the-nuclear-football-add77568346e

Another problem is Kamala having the nuclear codes, since she appears willing to do anything to get more power and has no consistent ideology.

I dont think Kamala will have any serious role as long as he’s still alive. She was chosen purely based on identity politics and her willingness to tow the line. He doesnt actually respect her input. Things will be left up to people like John Kasich his advisors/handlers. What Kamala might do after he croaks is another story.

I knew what you meant, but only because it’s such a different mental image I feel like mentioning that it’s usually toe the line
