And while there are exceptions (looking at you Garland), most of Biden’s team are pretty solid. For example, I would keep Lena Khan exactly where she is regardless of which Democrat is in charge. He’s got a lot more young smart staff than he gets credit for.
If you narrow your scope to just the presidency maybe. The real worst case scenario is he completely fails to run an effective campaign and creates a huge red wave sweeping a big group of fascists into power.
But that’s almost exactly what the president is supposed to do. Like forget Bidens mental state right now, just talking about any president, one of the main reasons aside from their “vision” we vote for them is for their ability to judge individuals capabilities or to have the capability of knowing how to find those people. The administration should ideally be made up of experts in their respective areas that will guide the president. He just makes the final call as to whether to listen or not, we shouldn’t expect him to know everything and to be able to work without “the administration.”
It’s one of the main reasons I loath Trump. I hate him as a person, but as a president I hate that he wants “yes men.” He doesn’t want guidance, he wants subservience to follow his will. That’s one of the bigger problems with project 2025 as well, their purity tests and seeking of more “yes men” will cripple the government as they aren’t lead by anything other than orders from above.
All that said, Biden does have to comprehend the guidance he’s being given. All we can see from Biden is how he operates behind a camera and on the spot. I don’t know if anyone has spoken about his capacity when he’s “working.” (Massive copium hit.)
Worst case scenario for Biden is he’s mostly absent and his cabinet has to guide him through policies making the Democratic party mostly in control.
Which is pretty much exactly what Trump’s first term was adding in a lot of grift and pointless spite.
For real. Also I doubt Biden will try to start a coup to stay in power
