Replace Biden, Somehow

How about loser wears the winning politician's t-shirt long enough to post a pic of it. If the loser is too embarrassed to show his face, a pic from the neck down would be funny enough! I'm not entering this one. I have less confidence in the voters than I had last time. We might be close to electing the most mentally deficient president of all time, Hiding Biden!

Biden is sharp. He has solutions.

James, Hiden Biden can not talk unscripted for more than a couple of minutes. He is no longer sharp enough.

I personally have none invested. I have said I will not predict Trump winning. Neither is presidential material, but I have not seen recent video of Biden in a give and take situation where he can speak for more than a few minutes without sounding feeble-minded. 
I also see more of Biden's "thousand yard stare."

"...as far gone as you seem to think he is..."
Until Hiden Biden gets out there and shows he can think on his feet, I have good reason to think he can't.
It is very obvious they have been thinking he can not give a good account of himself.

Biden said, "Obama and I left a playbook for Trump on how to fight pandemics. He flat out ignored it and we are paying the price every day."

Grenell replied: "You knew how to stop a virus that started in China and didn't yell up from the basement?

What are the odds that Pence could defeat Biden if Trump suddenly had health problems and needed to step aside? With Trump's ego this would need to be a serious problem before he would quit. But the huge ego could work the other way. If he decided he would surely lose, maybe the health issue would let him save some face (in his still sharp mind.)
