Biden will not withdraw his candidacy and he will not resign from office. Here's why:

• The only president to ever resign was Nixon and the world remembers the stain it left on the body politic.

• Presidents Polk, Buchanan, Hayes, Coolidge and Truman all decided to not seek re-election, but the world only remembers Lyndon B. Johnson for having withdrawn his candidacy, which harmed his legacy for the ages.

• Biden dreads being associated with Nixon, and believes himself a more beloved and pivotal president than LBJ. He will not make the choices that guarantee him being compared to those two in perpetuity.

• Delusional Joe Biden entered office in January 2021 with blowhards like Michael Beschloss, John Meacham, Doris Kearns Goodwin and possibly the worst of them, Anne Applebaum of The Atlantic, urging him to consider his Legacy, to believe he could reach for the greatness of the Greats, like Washington, Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt. What a fool, and what horrid manipulators those people were (and still are...anyone get a look lately at the crazed Michael Beschloss these days? He's being fitted for a straight-jacket right now).

• Today, instead of a Legacy, Biden is a shriveled man, his reputation ruined, to be forever remembered for Afghanistan, the border, regional hot wars and extreme global tensions, the rise of a real China-Iran-Russia axis, inflation, energy policy failures, enabling lawfare to flourish, transforming the department of Justice into a third world laughingstock, dishonoring veterans, firing armed forces members for defying illegal vaccine mandates, trying to destroy the Supreme Court, ruining the dream of homeownership, student loan fraud, monstrous political pandering, lining donor pockets with “climate crisis” dollars, bowing to leftist radicals and campus hatred, exploiting transgender dysphoria, selling out to teachers unions, stoking racial discord, dividing the nation, even plunging his own party into chaos and civil war, and finally stifling true democracy when he faced his hardest decision.

So my prediction is Biden will stay on against the advice of everyone he has ever trusted and everyone who has enabled him to succeed (except for those “historians” he met with at the beginning of his term who convinced him he was fit for Mt. Rushmore) and to stay as long as he wants, to hang on, take his party hostage, go down with the ship if he has to – thinking himself courageous -- and even, perverse as it sounds, go out like that one Democratic President Biden worships, FDR, and die in office, and be given a state funeral with bagpipes and Irish poetry-readings all praising his glory. That will be his final will and testament.

And frankly, I won’t say that I hope it does not happen. I hope it does happen. And I hope that will be his legacy and the legacy of his demented, criminal family and all the sycophants and fruitcakes and MSNBC/MSM clowns who have made a profit and reputation off of this horrible man, and in the process revealing the true nature of this corrupt party that conspired to make this low, dishonest man president.

So there.

LBJ's "legacy" was ruined by his deception in the Bay of Tonkin incident. HE got us into the Vietnam War under false pretenses and then continued to escalate the war even though it was obviously a lost cause. (PUN INTENDED!) Why was it a lost cause? Because Vietnam was a Stone Age society. You cannot bomb a Stone Age society into the Stone Age. Unfortunately, Nixon continued the insanity.
