Really? Is democracy on the line or isn’t it? He had to do it cause he was going to lose to Trump and throw the House & Senate to MAGA. Biden doesn’t have to not push the nuclear launch buttons before he leaves office. Yay Joe, you are so selfless for not pushing the nuclear launch buttons. You could have, but major props for being so selfless for not doing it.
Sure it is. But there’s no guarantee Kamala can seal the deal. A change this late in the race is hugely risky. Only 14% of elected Democrats were asking him to step down; he still has the backing of the majority, despite what you heard in mainstream media.
I don’t know if he flipped a coin, or just had no more fucks to give. Maybe he was just tired. But there’s no guarantee any Democrat has a better chance at winning than he did, and plenty of risk in stepping back. Trump had been slowly but steadily been slipping in the polls since his rally; odds were against Joe, but three months and some better luck and it wasn’t an impossible comeback. Fuck, nobody thought Crazy Don had any chance of winning against Hillary, even into election night news outlets were reporting polling her as an easy win.
He should get some major props, too. It’s a selfless act for the good of the country, and he didn’t have to do it.

So, to answer your original question,
Yes, really.
