His supporters know he's incompetent and a buffoon. They will of course still vote for him.
Social conditioning is powerful. For 30 years they've listened to Rush and Hannity. By now, they
can't form an opinion without them.

Joe to counterpunch every damn thing that comes out of the White House and or the Senate particularly on this.

Dual appearances with Nancy and Chuck. Clips of commentary from Kamala, Amy, Pete, Elizabeth and Bernie which amplify and support what Biden says. Maybe a few from Bill, Jimmy C and Barack. Hillary. Kerry.

This is a goldmine of opportunity to really bring home to the voters just what it means to be a leader.
