What’s the most credible argument that the current president can’t run for re-election yet can continue with the world’s toughest job for another 100 days?

The argument that 100 days vs. 4 more years is moot if you have another Cuban Missile Crisis in September.

under this model, its more about biden's trajectory, ie he will be capable until election day but not capable of being president for another term, thus he can stay as president but can't run again

Because if the current president can't continue his job we'll be unburdened by what has been?

He is unfit not because of his decline today, but the decline we expect to see after another year or two.

because he’s been “operating” for nearly four yrs & a few more months is negligible him resigning creates 10x more disarray then current status quo

Only credible argument is that his cognitive impairment isn't that bad now, but will be in 4 years.

Announcing both on the same day would cause anxiety? It would make sense to me if the administration is spacing those out. Doubt it’ll last 100 days.

he’s not gonna say he’s dropping out cuz he can’t do the job anymore/ has some sort of impairment he’s going to say he was unelectable despite still being qualified and it’s more important to the country for the dems to win/ trump to lose than try and change peeps minds about his electability

Basically the same reasons that explain why Trump is a popular political candidate but couldn’t get hired to run any Fortune 500 company. One is a beauty contest. The other is a real job, but as Trump demonstrated it can be done while golfing several times a week. Doesn’t seem that hard tbh.

His wife can sub in on foreign policy just like Edith Wilson did for The Treaty of Versailles. That one worked out fine. So don’t worry at all.

He's resigning because the perception is he can't do the job for another 4 years. That has little to do with what he's actually capable of for the next 6 months. Also in practice the president can lean heavily on others. Regan was pretty out of it his second term.
