Biden's second round of Covid suggests the possibility for an early, graceful exit from the Presidency. Once the mid-terms are over he could just announce that his health adds too much uncertainty to his continuation in office. That opens the way to an orderly Constitutional transition to the Vice-President's ascension to power. Kamala Harris would then have the chance to show what her real capabilities are to govern. Even if she does pretty well over the following two years there would likely be some stiff competition in the primaries for 2024, but there seems no more danger in that for Democrats than if Joe were going for a second term.
