The 80-year-old president has repeatedly embarrassed the U.S. by stumbling upstairs and across stages while also mumbling his words, making Americans question if he even knows he is the president.
Biden's health is such a major concern that even Left-leaning outlets question whether he is up for the job or not.
Politico columnist Jack Schafer demanded a stronger primary challenger for Biden— one that would toughen the president up and would "prepare us" in case he's "seriously injured" or "dies one evening."
Titled "Why Democrats Should Primary Biden," Schafer argued that the senior president is not up for a second term, suggesting California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) or Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg as alternative presidential candidates.
"Besides putting him in fighting trim (or not), primary adversaries would prepare us for the all too real possibility that he's incapacitated by a stroke, seriously injured in one of his frequent falls or another bike crash, or just dies one evening. It's not impolite or unkind to plan for the sudden departure of any employee," Schafer wrote.
The columnist also cast doubts that Vice President Kamala Harris would be able to take the reigns should something happen to Biden.
"If Kamala Harris had convinced the country that she could step into Biden's shoes should he suddenly step out of them, the argument for a primary challenge wouldn't be so urgent," Schafer added.

Hillary might have gotten elected to Congress from a heavily Democratic district in the Chicago area. Possibly she could have made it to the Senate. But no way she would have had a chance of being the party’s nominee for President if she had not been the wife of President Clinton.
If Biden croaks how do the Democrats then cast aside “president” Heels Up Harris in favor of.....a White Heterosexual Male like Gavin Newsome????
They can’t. They’d be stuck with Heels up Harris.
FDR was known to be in poor health by Democratic Party insiders.
A fun fact, Hitler and FDR held office in their respective countries for nearly the identical time. Hitler became Chancellor of Germany in January of ‘33; FDR became President in March the same year. And Hitler blew his brains out on April 30, 1945 and FDR died 18 days earlier.
That is the unvarnished truth. Hillary put up with Bills messing around coz she knew which side the bread was buttered.
Yep and as stupid as Joey
Michelle's family was pretty well off--she wouldn't be living in the ghetto even if she had not married Obama.
It was probably evident from the newsreels, as you say. However, there is always inside knowledge within party circles. Why do you think that there are a dozen candidates running for the 2024 Republican Presidential nomination when Trump is the obvious leader? I assume that the Republicans believe that Trump will be taken out by the legal warfare being waged against him. There may also be the belief that the Deep State may take him out through extra legal means. DeSantis, Mike Pence, Chris Christie, Nikki Haley, and others may have taken the wrong bet but I don’t think they would have gotten involved in the race unless they figured that Trump would be taken out one way or the other.
I’ve been saying for years he is already dead, at least from the neck up.
“AI” will be used to convert Obama’s voice to Biden’s.
“AI” will be used to convert Loretta Lynch’s voice to Biden’s.
“AI” will be used to convert Eric Holder’s voice to Biden’s.
Polutico has now sending a message to the RAT base.
“We need to find another candidate and FAST”
Oh boy!
I’ve always thought Newsom was itching for a reason to run based on some of his Tweets in response to things like the SCOTUS rulings recently.
Hunter forgets to cut the Big Guy’s 8 ball and so long Tater!
I heard one Biden fan say that we underestimate Biden because “We don’t understand how the Irish speak.” They will produce equally mindless excuses for Kamala.
Bingo.
Will anyone even notice
You get a +1 for the expression ‘pretty boy marxist’.
