Tbh honest I was surprised Biden was even a consideration back in 2020, he was too old even then and it made the criticisms of Trump's age and mental health not land so well. The moment it was a close call in 2020 the plan should have been 'popular dem by any means necessary'. Not, double down on aging incumbent when they rarely do better on re-election. I can't tell it if was hubris or a complete failure of the party apparatus to believe it could come up with someone more appealing than Trump..
