Seems to me like less of a torch passing and more of a torch taking, akin to taking the car keys from grandpa because he's a danger when driving now. Not that I'm complaining, because things are looking a lot better with Harris at the helm.
edit: anyone downvoting want to explain how I'm wrong? Biden insisted he was staying in the race over and over until his hand was clearly forced and now the blow is being softened with "actually I meant to drop out but things were moving too fast" even though there were multiple points he was being asked to drop (including after the debate) and he refused. Hell, he could've simply not run in the primary if he sincerely believed he was a "transition president" in the first place.
I thought that was an apartment building at first.
