The funny part about this is oil production has hit record levels under Biden admin. I can understand Biden not really using this as much as a talking point because it goes against some of his policies towards EV and renewables. But even if democrats shouted this fact at the rooftops, there would be guys like your FIL believing otherwise.

That is one issue. The other is your father in law (no offense) sounds like most people and has no idea what is going on (let alone how energy markets work)
Biden isn’t advertising America’s record oil boom
Biden is not “waging war” on American energy. He’s boosting it.

Report is from this afternoon, and really isn't anything new honestly.

"“If I had some medical condition that emerged. If doctors came to me and said, ‘You’ve got this problem, that problem,’” Biden replied. “But, I made a serious mistake in the whole debate.”
The president also defended his decision to not be a transitional president and to run again, arguing that the divided country caused him to want to stay in the White House.
“Look, when I originally ran … I said I was going to be a transitional candidate and I thought that I would be able to move from this and pass it on to someone else,” the incumbent said. “But I didn’t anticipate things getting so, so, so divided, and quite frankly, I think the only thing, age brings a little bit of wisdom, and I think I’ve demonstrated that. I know how to get things done for the country.”
“There’s more to do, and I’m reluctant to walk away from that,” he added.
The president’s age and health have been in the spotlight since his rocky debate performance last month against former President Trump, during which he struggled to finish his thoughts and spoke in a quiet, raspy voice. The debate prompted calls among Democrats to step aside, which continued Wednesday when Rep. Adam Schiff (Calif.) publicly called for him to drop out of the race.
Biden has defended his health and insisted in an interview with ABC earlier this month that the debate was not an indication of any serious condition and said he was exhausted from recent foreign travel."

I mean we can conspiracy theory it out and imagine there's some kind of consensus that he should dip and they've gotten him to seed this idea and then they will get some doctor to newly diagnose some pre-existing condition, but honestly any of these over 50 candidates could say "well if a doctor said I had this medical condition or that medical condition, I wouldn't run".
I dunno, it just feels like the interviewer (hadn't seen Ed Gordon in a month of Sundays) asked him yet another "what would it take for you to drop out" and he basically gave the same answer - some health related 'act of god' out of his control.
All I know is, if he does leave, and the "oh he needs to quit so Kamala can run" people in here magically turn into "oh she needs to not run" people......

Covid's actually surging in nearby Maryland (along with RSV) so it kind of makes sense. Probably got it when he came back to DC to give that speech on Sunday.

Does that make you BlueMAGA too?
And she's the only one other than Biden who can claim the last four years as a political accomplishment.
How are Democrats supposed to compensate to being unable to run without the advantage of incumbency, in a political field that gives a natural - territorial - advantage to the GOP? As long as that question isn't answered, I can't justify asking Biden to step down.
As we get closer to the election, Trump will have to reveal the shape his administration will take. It's already started with JD Vance, and if we are gambling, I'm more comfortable gambling that his picks will be repulsive enough that Americans will have no choice but look at the precipice they want us to jump in.

He started swinging the wrecking ball...
This is an extremely stupid statement, especially since we're nowhere close to meeting the chip demand if we lose access to these producers.
