I think what needs to happen is...
1. Biden steps down after the RNC.
2. He uses the reasoning as something along the lines of, after having discussions with friends, family and his doctor, he has came to the decision that his body both physically and mentally would not be able to cope with the demands of another 4 years, he knows that it's starting to show and knows it's time for him to step aside for a better candidate. He knows the American people deserve better.
3. While he doesn't run for re-election, he should maintain the presidency until the next president takes over, as his final ride, allowing Harris to put her full focus and attention into campaigning.
4. He fully endorses Harris to take over.
5. Democrats do not have an open convention, they all shut the hell up and start kissing Harris feet, they must all start uniting 100% behind her because once she takes over that's it, there is no Plan C. I want to see every single Democrat doing everything in their power to help her victory, I don't want to see anymore dooming or complaining, this will be the time for unity.
Biden will go down to some as a bit of a hero for performing an incredibly selfless act for his party, for his country, a thing that few American Presidents have done and something Republicans wouldn't ever dare dream of doing. He can show that he's different, not a power-hungry maniac and bow out gracefully, which may help pass some of the support over to Harris.
