Joe Biden, tanking on purpose?

Joe Biden has had a string of gaffes this election cycle that I would like to say are inexplicable except that he has a track record of gaffes and mistakes every time he runs and most of the time in between.  He's not electable and Democrats have already recognized that despite the fact that they have as their best other options a socialist and a cardboard cutout or a racist, billionaire.

But this time it has been especially bad.  Look at these:

He insults a supporter:



He tells a potential supporter to vote for someone else:



He called a former marine a fat liar at a town hall meeting:



So why has the formerly presumed front runner tanked so badly? Is it possible that he's hoping to derail his own candidacy because he's worried about the Hunter-Biden-Ukraine-Burisma scandal blowing up if he becomes the nominee?  After all, president Trump for the most part has the levers of power at the moment (minus the resistance of the swamp) and the AG is looking into the Biden corruption linkage.  If Joe slinks away, maybe the scandal goes away too.  He's made his money, his family has benefited financially from his career, and maybe he's decided that's good enough.

True Biden could rebound in South Carolina but each passing day it his prospects are looking worse.  He's not coming in 2nd or 3rd in these early states, it's 4th and 5th.  Either Biden really is an unelectable hack or he is deliberately trying to bow out without making it look like he wants out.
