The 'Biden Is Not Running' Narrative Is Picking Up Steam

We’ve mentioned this on the Triggered Podcast. Spencer and Katie have both written columns about it. The degeneration of Joe Biden is happening before our eyes, with noted episodes of mental and physical decline. He’s talked about railroads built over oceans. He collapsed during the US Air Force Academy’s commencement address. And he devolved into a mumbling, incoherent mess in front of Israeli President Isaac Herzog. The revelation that he’s an all-around terror in the Oval Office, with aides being subjected to verbal abuse, is in keeping with the anger one experiences when facing mental decline; they can’t keep up. Reportedly, aides often asked someone to accompany them, acting like a bulletproof vest from the old man's fury.
Last July, before the 2022 midterms, the stories about Biden’s age, lack of vigor, and grumblings among national Democrats about his re-election chances dominated the press for about two weeks. My guess: More than a few committee members at the DNC wanted a red wave to make the case that Joe had to go. The opposite happened: the GOP fumbled one of the most manageable election cycles in recent memory.
But with COVID over, Biden will have to do multiple events, which will only multiply after Election Day 2024 draws nearer and in various states. He can’t do it. Joe skipped the NATO summit opening dinner because he was gassed after less than three days of work and had spent the weekend before the event on the beach in Delaware. With his bare-bones re-election apparatus and California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom getting his name more in press circulation, is Biden indeed running for re-election?
