In an opinion editorial published by the Daily Caller, the author argues that President Joe Biden's most significant career blunder was his refusal to step down from power when his mental faculties began to decline.
The author suggests that Biden's decision to cling to power, despite his apparent senility, has not only tarnished his legacy but also served as a disservice to the American people.
The author points to Biden's recent appearance on ABC's "The View" as evidence of his decline, where he was treated with condescension by the hosts and admitted to being in denial about his party's decision to remove him from the ballot. "It was so undignified you pitied the man," the author notes.
The author argues that Biden's decision to stay in power, despite his diminishing mental capacity, has resulted in him becoming a mere "senile vessel" for his administration's left-wing agenda. This, the author suggests, has led to Biden losing his agency and becoming impotent, particularly during his first and only debate against Donald Trump in June.
The author criticizes Biden for not being honest with the American people about his declining mental state. "He did the opposite: he lied about his ability for years, sticking around way even though he was long gone mentally," the author asserts.
The author draws parallels between Biden's situation and those in the arts who choose to retire early to preserve their legacy. The author cites Quentin Tarantino's decision to make only one more movie and Ridley Scott's apparent decline in film quality as examples of individuals who understand when to step back.
The author concludes by suggesting that Biden's refusal to step down will cost him dearly in the long run. "Biden was stubborn, however, and that will cost him dearly long after he is gone," the author warns. The author advises men to recognize when it's time to bow out with dignity, assessing their achievements and potential for future accomplishments.
In the author's view, Biden's decision to hold onto power, despite his declining mental state, has resulted in him spending the last two years of his life embarrassing himself on the world stage. The author suggests that Biden could have spent this time with his family, instead of clinging to power.
The author's critique of Biden's decision to stay in power despite his apparent mental decline is a stark reminder of the importance of recognizing when it's time to step down. It serves as a cautionary tale for those in positions of power, suggesting that clinging to power can often do more harm than good.
