Unfortunately, JD Vance and Joe Biden will not be able to have many, many intense intellectual conversations, because Jorkin Depeanus Vance is an idiot.

I prefer the name James Donald Bowman to mock him.
A that's his actual birth name, which he wants to forget.

Joe Biden still probably has better mental and physical health than the Cheeto in chief.

We saw during Trump's first term how he acted as a baseline. We learned that the only saving grace to him being president was that he didn't actually do his job, and he didn't trust other people to do it, either. So his damage was mostly caused during a relative few major events and in his constantly being an attention seeker. The rest of the time, he was golfing.
His presidency is markedly different in his second term. Did he suddenly learn how not to be super lazy? People don't often change like that. The more likely answer is that he's experienced a substantial mental decline and the people around him are doing most of his job for him because he knows that if he stops them, he'll be exposed.

Relatedly, it's probably just that everyone has refined and conformed their parasitic relationships to give Trump what he wants - attention and the facade of power and deference - which means Trump is fine giving them what they want that he has no interest in - Project 2025 and actual governance.
Stephen Miller is the archetypical example of this. He publicly and privately fellates Trump, and in return, Trump gives him a blank check to set basically all domestic immigration and law enforcement policy.
In this scenario, Trump's mental decline isn't leverage, it's just another cost of doing business for the craven opportunists who actually make the decisions.

You didn't pay attention. He was getting a lot of fascist shit done behind the scenes while you were all so inflicted by scandal fatigue that him taking a Sharpie to a weather map was all it took to sweep the Epstein story under the rug.
He was in fact more dangerous in his first term compared to now where he's lost all tact.

You really still trying to run with this shit after Biden was the one who had a brain freeze during a debate between the two?
Y'all content to never win another election never ever again, are ya? Face it liberals. You LOST the game of "My geriatric candidate is less geriatric than yours!" Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. (Getting crushed in the 2024 election.)

Some one should keep reminding him of his abusive, drug addicted grandma who slapped him because he thought he was gay.

He's missing out on a significant amount of money by letting Joe live in his head rent-free like that.

He finds that he has a mic in front of him, so he dunks on Biden out of the blue. This is it, this is the best idea he's got, this is what he thinks leadership looks like. This I what he thinks the federal government should do, what it's for: pacify the chuds with a resentment spiritual.
If party roles were reversed, conservatives would be howling about "politicizing the tragedy" of 9/11. But they're going to eat this up and beg for more.

.....Because Biden was an even worse more genocidal monster.

This must be what Vance means when he's talked about Ordo Amoris and Christian love.

There are still Ukrainians dying because of Genocide Joe's fuckery, and there are way less Palestinians because Genocide Joe was the one president to never tell Israel "Cut it out. You're making us look bad." Even fucking Reagan was quick to make them de-escalate.
You might want to forget why the Democrats got ravaged in 2024, but we won't forget when it comes time for the Democrats to try to claim they're the good guys totally unlike the bad guys again.

Even if that made sense, asking whether he should serve another term is just a distraction for people with weak critical thinking. Biden dropped out in 2024, is not currently president, and is not going to run for president in 2028 or any future year. There's a less capable person currently serving as president.

Smart move to double down on someone even more derided than that lady who wears a cross. /s

Maybe he's serious? After all he's used to talk with the stupidest person to ever be appointed as a country leader in the world history
/s I know, he's just mocking him and this is way sadder
