However, to appease donors, I would be ok with Biden stating clearly, once again, that he is currently fit to serve; citing his accomplishments and daily tasks, routines, and schedule which he adheres to, BUT if the time comes during his next term that he can no longer perform the duties of the Presidency (not because of snapshot poll numbers or financial backers' demands), he will resign with dignity and grace for serving this great Nation as is his duty.
