most important thing is that he can still use his arm to sign legislation. that's all you need him for. the actual deal is the cabinet. that's what you're voting for.

too bad most people don't think about that, and fuck the dnc for putting the country in this situation.

This is a terrible sentiment. You need a team and you need someone to lead that team. Having the leader just be a puppet is terrible.

You'll get a dysfunctional cabinet this way, you will get grifting, taking advantage of the puppet showing his face to bad ideas and you will get foreign influence prying on the weak puppet president.

And even if the president is not a puppet and "only weak". We have a government falling apart and in deadlock because of our chancellor being a weak leader in Germany. The only thing holding them together at this point is the fear of them losing power sooner in an early election. All it does is give even further rise to the fascists.

You need a competent leader at the head of the cabinet. And that starts with her or him having their mental capacity.

Biden has been president for almost 4 years and we haven't seen any of those things. That's how I know all this FUD is overblown. The things you are describing were rampant under Trump, not Biden.
