To the editor: Contributing author Matt Okay. Lewis claims we’re all in charge, as if we knew Joe Biden couldn’t perform his duties as president, including that “the scandal is how few individuals cared” (“We all saw Biden’s decline in real time. The scandal is how few people cared,” Might 23)
That’s a lazy and incorrect generalization. We didn’t understand how unhealthy Biden’s decline was. It took a nationally broadcast debate and an incident involving an individual with the identify recognition of George Clooney to interrupt by way of. Biden, we’d been informed, had a lifelong speech obstacle that challenged his fluency. Till the controversy, this appeared to elucidate a lot.
I additionally reject that we didn’t care. Democrats cared so much. However it was additionally straightforward to assume nothing was mistaken contemplating how easily every little thing appeared to function earlier than President Trump. Kamala Harris was the one opposing candidate we have been provided. She’s sensible however by no means my imaginative and prescient of a robust chief. I voted in opposition to her opponent, not for her.
After which, Democratic management left straightforward points for Republicans to win on. Now we, the general public, have to attend to vote for our personal energy once more. The midterms can’t come quickly sufficient.

To the editor: Sufficient already. This and all the continual articles about former President Biden’s psychological situation are an unwelcome distraction. First, I don’t care about who knew what when. It’s irrelevant to in the present day’s information. I do have sympathy for Biden’s well being issues and need him the perfect. The infatuation with discovering out who knew what reeks of false equivalence. If you wish to speak about psychological situations, then discuss in regards to the current occupant of the White Home who is totally indifferent from actuality.
Regardless of all of the drivel about Biden, keep in mind that he carried out greater than admirably whereas within the White Home, it doesn’t matter what his psychological situation was.
