Jill Biden looms as the main obstacle standing in the way of her husband saving the Democrats by stepping aside for someone else to lead the ticket.
She is Joe Biden’s number one caretaker, adviser and enabler — much the same way Nancy Reagan took care of her husband’s final few years as he began to battle Alzheimer’s.
Jill Biden is the one Democrats have to deal with — if she says to stay in the race, he’ll stay in. And right now Jill is winning. She clearly likes being first lady and won’t give it up easily.
Dr. Jill took the extraordinary step of putting out a statement attacking the special counsel’s report recommending the president face no charges for holding classified documents because he was too old and not mentally sharp enough to be convicted.
“Joe is 81, that’s true, but he’s 81 doing more in an hour than most people do in a day,” Jill Biden said in a fundraising appeal to nervous Democrats.
