‘Dithering’, that is significant progress.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like you may not be keeping up with all the legislation Biden has got through a very divided congress.

I can totally understand that, it is hard to keep up because the media really doesn’t report much on Biden’s and Democrats’ accomplishments.

Much of the legislation is progressive too.

Were you able to see the SOTU, where Biden pushed Republicans into a corner so that they ended up promising to protect Medicare and Social Security? He was masterful.

He’s smart, tough, compassionate.

He’s been an excellent President so far. I don’t see any reason to give up the incumbency advantage.

As to his age, he is both physically and mentally younger than the number. Trump is younger and compare him to Biden. Biden is physically fit and mentally sharp. I believe Biden is mentally sharper than DeSantis as well, and he is certainly a better person.

He can beat Trump and he can beat DeSantis.

So personally I don’t think we can do better.

Take care.
