Don't fall for Joe Biden's nice old man act - he's just lowering expectations
Briefly

Some things are so obvious they need no commentary... But Republicans should not fall into the trap of emphasizing Biden's increasing befuddlement... The strategy risks engendering sympathy for a man who deserves none... It also plays into Biden's superpower: being underestimated.
He might act like a doddering incompetent, look like a wax effigy and walk like a robot, but the president has the uncanny ability to exceed all expectations when it counts, politically... For instance, Biden's weird performance at the State of the Union in March... was effusively praised by his media boosters as 'feisty', 'energetic', and 'passionate.'
He keeps passing the tests set for him by doubters in his party who are worried that most voters think he's too old - a polite euphemism for his cognitive fitness... Biden's weird performance at the State of the Union in March after another extended recharge at Camp David was effusively praised by his media boosters.
