When the U.S. economy fell into recession in 1990, many of Trump's businesses suffered, and he was forced to surrender his airline, sell his 282-foot yacht, and take out second or third mortgages on nearly all of his properties; during this period, estimates of Trump's net worth ranged from $1.7 billion to minus $900 million.--Britannica

Priorities

We are now debating why Biden is not planning to be interviewed at the Super Bowl. Some seem to be awakening to the idea he can't put a phrase together. This raises a few questions.

First, why would the Democrats want a man who can't think to be president?  

Second, is the press unaware of this obvious problem? How is that possible?

Third, how is/are the substitute president(s) behind Biden chosen? Such a leader is not chosen by vote; where is the authority for this?

Fourth, why do these people think we, the average guys, have to put up with this?

We are in a new time, a time where certain political beliefs have become more important than how those beliefs are reached, discussed, and accepted or rejected. Those beliefs are so important that they must prevail even if achieving them can be done only by violating the basic elements of the country's founding. Biden is certainly not running the country--but someone is, and we don't know who. Policies are coming from somewhere, but we don't know where. And objective analysis of all this is...verboten.
