The NYT transcript makes it even funnier:
I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the goodest job as I know I can do, that’s what this is about.

William O. Douglas had a debilitating stroke 11 months before he finally retired from the Supreme Court. After that he kept trying to go to work and became angry when his clerks were reassigned. It’s possible a stroke would make Biden even more stubborn, and the Democrats are too cowardly to go through with the 25th Amendment.
One commentator has attributed some of [Douglas’s] behavior after his stroke to anosognosia, which can lead an affected person to be unaware and unable to acknowledge disease in himself, and often results in defects in reasoning, decision-making, emotions, and feeling.
Good luck! If you need some quitting-smoking comedy to tide you over, the first chapter of Italo Svevo’s Zeno’s Conscience is a classic memoir of the narrator’s many last cigarettes.
So here is my question for Joe Biden, the one man who has been anointed to save America from the terrifying notion of another Trump administration: Why have you decided to force American voters who do not want a fascist president to step over the bodies of thousands of dead civilians in order to vote for you? Why? What are you thinking? The Biden administration itself is subjecting all of us to this blood-soaked political kabuki, in which we are all supposed to grin tightly and talk about the CHIPS Act and investment in green energy and studiously ignore the thousands of dead children strewn all around us. It is as if the night before a big game, the New York Yankees went out and shot up an elementary school, and then turned to their fans and shrugged, “What are you gonna do—cheer for the Red Sox?”
