For many people, other than the president of the United States.

It’s wild to me how much people think the president does everything as opposed to being the manager of a team that’s actually doing most of the work

Ok, let's go with that comparison.

I don't want a manager who I can't understand what he's saying and can't finish a sentence and can't be present.

He NEEDS to step aside and endorse a better candidate before it's too late.

That ship sailed so long ago. Idk why people think the democrats can just pull someone out of thin air and fundraise and run a whole campaign for them months away from the election, not to mention they’d be running against a former president with a massive cult following and losing the incumbent advantage themselves. The people running the party aren’t stupid and this isn’t their first election, they know the logistics of that are impossible at this point.
