ABC News said he did, and I trust them. So I think it’s true.

Maybe COVID will do what the Democrats won’t.

They say he has Covid. At this point I really don’t believe much that comes out of the WH. Covid might be the story to keep him out of the spotlight for a while. They might be afraid he will continue to blather along incoherently or they might be afraid some nut job will take a shot at him.

According to the AP News…

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden has tested positive for the coronavirus, according to a speaker at the UnidosUS annual conference broadcast on the White House’s YouTube channel. That conference is being held in Las Vegas.

“I tested positive for COVID-19 this afternoon, but I am feeling good and thank everyone for the well wishes.

I will be isolating as I recover, but during this time I will continue to work to get the job done for the American people.”

It could be the graceful exit he needs.

Biden has Covid though his symptoms are mild. According to a BBC radio report he is resting at his Delaware home. I wish the best for him but I think the time has come for him to step down.

This is a good “out” for the Biden administration, planned or not. I will make a prediction, Biden won’t be doing anymore speeches.

Schumer and Pelosi are asking for him to step down, so it’s serendipitous.

Perhaps this is just an excuse to keep him out of the focus of public attention while he is being convicted to resign.

He looked pretty wobbly going up the steps to the airplane.

Every time he walks, he looks like a breeze would knock him over.

Yes, with mild symptoms. End of story.
