HUGO GURDON: Old Joe Is ‘Decades Past His Sell-By Date’

From Washington Examiner Editor In Chief Hugo Gurdon:

• If Democrats didn’t turn blind eyes to their candidates’ evident incapacities, President Joe Biden himself would not be where he is. Being president and governing against Congress is a good problem to have if the alternative is not being president.
• He is the prime example of a pol who was years or decades past his sell-by date when elected. He was the Democrats’ last best hope of briefly throwing up a smoke screen of centrism and, in the fog of election war, defeating the insurgency of socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
• They propped Biden up, kept him in his basement, and now he is the president.
