65% saw him as unfit for office prior to the debate, and that only went up to 72%

Notwithstanding this, the race is still tight, meaning that a sizable percentage of people (~20%) are okay voting for someone they view as cognitively unfit to lead the free world.
This is interesting because I got the impression from DCUM that there was widespread ignorance about Biden’s... let's call it affect. DCUM has consistently expressed a belief that Biden is spry and mentally agile, particularly when compared to his opponent Trump. While some DCUMers have since acknowledged that they ignored the signs, many are committed to a belief that either Biden is okay, or that his cognitive health is irrelevant to his job performance. By the numbers, this means DCUM is basically inhabited by among the most committed and perhaps extreme supporters on the left.

It doesn't mean they put country over party. It doesn't mean they can't be massive hypocrites when they want to.
Because Biden leads a party whose values align with their own, a lot of posters wave away his decline. It's a grave mistake. It makes them no better than conservatives putting up with Trump because they want to further a conservative agenda.
We should get a new Dem candidate ASAP.

DCUM is more likely to care about policy outcomes than your average internet hivemind.
Biden hasn’t passed legislation, he’s read a teleprompter while unknown individuals craft policy and make executive decisions.
You’re smoking more crack than Hunter.
American Rescue Act
Bipartisan Infrastructure Act
(if you’ve been tangentially involved in DC you’ll know that both sides of the aisle have been trying to get this done since the Obama administration!)
CHIPS Act
Inflation Reduction Act
Support for Israel and Ukraine
Those are the big ones. Infrastructure act alone would be the capstone to any 4-year term in office for any POTUS.
