I think what they mean is that campaigning is a lot more about the candidate's personality and determination, which Biden lacks. Whereas "presidenting" can just be about signing some paper and making public speeches, while the rest of the cabinet does all the hard work.
In a way this is disregarding all the volunteering, marketing, financing, that happens during the campaign, but they're not wrong in that in people's minds, not looking fit for the job has a lot more negative impact when you're trying to get the job, than when you're already appointed.
Also it takes a lot of energy to run a campaign, you have to face all the criticism and you're the one debating and trying to convince people. When you're president you can just send a random scapegoat (Macron has done it numerous times when personally addressing issues would have hurt his public image, so he sent a minister instead)
Provoking war with Russia and causing a political bloc of Russia-Iran-China to form was a bigger blunder though. Cannibalizing your allies while galvanizing and uniting your enemies is not a pro gamer move long term at all, it’s short sighted in the extreme.
Seizing Russian reserves also was a major blunder that alienated Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Gulf States, South Korea, India and others that would have previously been pro-west.
Remembering a Will-Ferrell-as-George-Bush joke that went something like "And I'll continue working for the American people 24/7. That's 24 hours a week; seven months a year."
Campaigning for President is different from doing the job of President. The reason for Biden's success is his team plus him, not just him.
I don't think Biden has what it takes to campaign. But he has what it takes to be President.

Biden’s success lmao. His success at what? Sparking world war 3? Genociding more Palestinians and Yemenis?
Blowing up nordstream and eating Europe's energy sector was a pretty pro gamer move from the perspective of empire

His working hours are 11 AM to 4 PM with time for a nap in there. He's certainly not able to be president
As the president just signs papers to authorize crimes really a drinking bird could do it.

I ❤️ how fundamentally undemocratic our system is. Who is steering this thing? Nobody knows. Just some unelected functionaries.
no he doesn't
