With the ominous sounding slogan of “finish the job,” Joe Biden plans to announce his re-election campaign next week as nearly half of Democratic voters in key states want him to step aside.

The reality is that Democrats are stuck with the 80-year-old president in 2024, unless you count Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s vanity campaign – which his own family has disavowed.

And Republicans are likely going to have 76-year-old Donald Trump as their nominee, meaning that 2024 will be a rematch of 2020 – only both will be four years older and shakier.

Biden is saddled with a 52% disapproval rating and will be 86 if he finishes a second term, making him by far the oldest president in history. But the mainstream media continues to gloss over questions about his fitness for office.

In Ireland last week, Biden struggled to answer a simple question from a child.

“What’s the top step to success?” the child asked.

“What’s the top what?” Biden responded, then had to get his son Hunter to explain the question.

Biden’s shakiness is probably the reason why his advisers have him announcing his re-election next week in a video, where he won’t have to face questions. It’s scheduled to drop on Tuesday, the four-year anniversary of his 2020 launch.

The president also reportedly plans a big meeting with mega-donors after his announcement, to give the appearance that Democratic heavy hitters are united behind him.

It’s notable that Biden doesn’t appear to be launching a nationwide tour or meeting with ordinary voters after his announcement, part of a strategy to keep him out of potential trouble.

But you can’t ignore the numbers. Biden will enter the campaign with serious weaknesses, just 43% approving of his performance. That includes an astonishing 67% disapproval rate among independent voters.

Even among his base, Biden’s support is squishy at best. Less than seven in ten Democrats say he deserves to be re-elected.

In New Hampshire – where Democrats have dropped its first-in-the-nation status – nearly half of Democratic voters don’t want a second act.

Biden also announces next week with his son Hunter under investigation on multiple fronts and the president himself under investigation for his handling of top secret documents found at his home and garage.

Biden’s reelection team is reportedly interviewing top staffers this week, but his message is already set.

“We should stand behind him to finish the job,” an ad from a Biden super PAC running in key swing states declares.

But voters might be asking, what has Biden done exactly to finish?
