An entire building full of political flacks, hacks, and diehard partisans locked in a room screaming all the quiet parts out loud to each other in a naked free-for-all seeking power within the party and the country - not in a smoke-filled back room, but out in the open where everyone's got a cell phone and a social media account.

And that, my friend, is why this idea of Biden stepping aside is irrational. It will lead to an open convention that will damage the entire party, including the down ballot races.

Sticking with Biden, being honest about his shortcomings, but selling those as being far less of a problem that Trump's shortcomings at least gives a fighting chance.

Bill Maher makes his living off of politically-leaning comedy content, so even that second possibility would be fantastic for him.

Until a thin-skinned, autocratic-leaning President decides to make life miserable for comedians that make fun of him.
