Can Biden do the job? Obviously yes.
Can Trump do the job? Obviously no.
Everything that tries to distract from the obvious will be where the press runs inn a pack toward.
Even if there weren't a million other factors in play, fundamentally, Trump has failed as spectacularly as any man who has taken the oath, and everything will be about making weak excuses for that.
Trump says something stupid or mean or incomprehensible every time he speaks off script. The danger is that's not even treated as news anymore, so Biden's stumbles are amplified and Trump's become barely visible. But, Biden can do the job, Trump can't, everything else is noise.
Trump's one skill, of course, is manipulating the noise to his own ends. Ever thus since John Barron was tipping off Page Six.
