Biden’s refusal to step aside has parallels in the corporate world.
- Share to Facebook
- Share to Twitter
- Share to Linkedin

The refusal by President Joe Biden to drop out of the race for the White House in favor of another candidate underscores important issues about whether and when corporate executives should resign or retire during or after a crisis.
The answers can depend on different factors and variables.
Performance-Driven
Biden’s disastrous debate performance sparked renewed concerns that quickly turned into alarms about his cognitive ability and communication skills.
In the business world, a similar performance by a CEO at a shareholder or board meeting would likely spur calls that he or she immediately seek medical attention or take a leave of absence or step down.
Their reluctance or refusal to leave would automatically put the executive into a defensive situation, which is never a good place to be. And it could strengthen arguments as to why they should step down immediately.
Viral ‘KO Of The Year’ Steals The Show At Jake Paul-Mike Perry Event
Jake paul vs. mike perry results: ko highlight and reaction, ufc vegas 94 results: fighter scores viral ko following 38-punch combo, protest-driven.
It is not unusual for boards of directors to ask or pressure senior executives to step down because of their role in creating or perpetuating a crisis.
Think back to last year when, in the aftermath of campus protests and of a headline-making testimony before a congressional committee, the president of the University of Pennsylvania resigned.
She stepped down “amid pressure from donors and criticism over testimony at a congressional hearing where she was unable to say under repeated questioning that calls on campus for the genocide of Jews would violate the school’s conduct policy,” the Associated Press reported .
Company officials who immediately submit their resignations after a crisis can help their organizations move on. But executives who insist on staying—even in the face of growing internal or public pressure that they leave—run the risk of making a bad situation worse by extending or adding a new aspect to the crisis.
Corporate Parallels
Restoring confidence.
“Biden’s decision to stay in the 2024 race, despite calls for him to step down, mirrors corporate scenarios where CEOs faced immense pressure but chose to remain.” Lakesha Cole , founder and principal publicist at she PR, said via email.
Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg “was ultimately ousted as Boeing CEO after a tumultuous period marked by two fatal 737 Max crashes, production delays, and numerous issues with the aircraft,” she pointed out.
“The intense pressure from stakeholders, regulators, and the public led to his resignation, deemed necessary to restore confidence and allow Boeing to address the significant challenges in getting its crucial product back in the air,” Cole observed.
Pressure From Stakeholders
Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn “initially refused to step down despite the massive fallout and pressure from various stakeholders because of the company’s emissions scandals in 2015,” Christine Haas, founder of Christine Haas Media, said via email.
“His decision to stay on was seen as a move to stabilize the company during the crisis. However, as the scandal deepened and the company's credibility was severely impacted, Winterkorn eventually resigned, recognizing that his departure was necessary to restore trust and enable the company to move forward with a new strategy and leadership .
Paving The Way For New Leadership
Travis Kalanick, the CEO of Uber “faced immense pressure to resign in 2017 following a series of scandals, including allegations of a toxic work culture and regulatory issues,” Haas recalled.
“Despite his significant role in building Uber, Kalanick stepped down , allowing the company to bring in new leadership under Dara Khosrowshahi, who focused on stabilizing the company and improving its public image,” she noted.
“For President Biden, his decision to remain in the race underscores his commitment to his agenda and his belief in his ability to lead. However, it also raises questions about the broader implications for party unity and electoral success, much like how corporate leaders must weigh their personal leadership against the long-term health of their organizations,” Haas concluded.
‘It’s Never Easy’
It’s never easy for senior executives in or outside of government to decide whether to stay or go during a crisis—or wait to be pushed.
A lot can be at stake for the future of those that they work for—and their own legacies.

MAGA World’s Reckless Point-Scoring
Prominent Republicans turned up the temperature within minutes of Saturday’s shooting.
![an essay on criticism crossword clue Donald Trump at a rally](https://cdn.theatlantic.com/thumbor/dGHXWhdib45_hm2zskFTvDxWwx4=/0x263:6810x4094/960x540/media/newsletters/2024/07/GettyImages_2161350318/original.jpg)
This is an edition of The Atlantic Daily, a newsletter that guides you through the biggest stories of the day, helps you discover new ideas, and recommends the best in culture. Sign up for it here.
Some prominent Republicans tried immediately to blame Democrats for the attempt on Donald Trump’s life. Such charges are cynical attempts to immunize Trump from any further criticism.
But first, here are four new stories from The Atlantic :
- J. D. Vance, heir apparent
- An astonishing ruling in Trump’s classified-documents case
- Elon Musk is making a bad situation worse.
- Congress accidentally legalized weed six years ago.
Irresponsible Speculation
Within hours of the attempt on Trump’s life on Saturday, RealClearPolitics, a right-leaning news and commentary site, noted the name of the shooter and added that his “online profile suggests that [he] was a leftist radical.” It did not provide evidence to back up this claim. The website later removed that sentence without acknowledging the deletion, but not fast enough to stop that line from spreading over onto social media.
So far, it seems that Trump’s would-be assassin had no significant online presence beyond a Discord account that had not been used in months, according to the platform. The FBI said that its agents have obtained the gunman’s phone, but so far they have not identified a motive for the shooting.
I do not know why RCP leapt to its conclusion about the gunman’s ideology. (RealClearPolitics did not respond to a request for an explanation of the silent change.) Speculating at a time like this is a natural temptation—but it’s also wildly irresponsible to do so publicly. What we do know is that the attacker was male, young, and white and, according to reporters at several outlets who have interviewed his acquaintances, also apparently intelligent and reportedly something of a social outcast, a profile similar to some other mass shooters. He was a registered Republican, which might not mean anything.
I don’t know what his politics were. Neither does anyone else in the general public. Newspapers and websites could have run headlines that said “Registered Republican Shoots Republican Candidate at Republican Rally in Heavily Republican Area” and it would have been accurate—in fact, it is completely true. Wisely, publications did not do that, because so far, none of this information, despite being factually correct, seems relevant to the attack.
So much uncertainty, of course, did not stop people across the political spectrum from making wild accusations about the shooter, but some Republican leaders went the extra distance to try to gain an instant political advantage from the mayhem. Instead of heeding the calls of more responsible Americans to help turn down the national temperature at a horrifying moment, they dialed it up to thermonuclear.
Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, for example, complained that “Democrats and their allies in the media have recklessly stoked fears, calling President Trump and other conservatives threats to democracy.” (For the sake of accuracy, I should note that Democrats and others have said this because Trump and some of his conservative enablers are threats to democracy.) “Their inflammatory rhetoric,” Scott added, “puts lives at risk.”
In fairness to Senator Scott, he’s right that political rhetoric can provoke violence. Cesar Sayoc, for example, is now in a federal prison for mailing bombs to prominent liberals; his defense attorneys claimed that Sayoc is an unstable person who was influenced by his “religious” viewing of Fox News programs such as Fox & Friends and Hannity , along with his immersion in Facebook groups and social media.
Troubled people will do unhinged things, and that should not be an excuse for limiting the ability of American citizens to engage in full-throated criticism of public figures. But some prominent Republicans—people in elected office who have a responsibility as leaders to show at least some restraint—have tried to link a terrible moment of violence to the political views of their foes without any evidence or detailed information, all for the sake of lazy and irresponsible point-scoring.
Senator Rick Scott of Florida made one of the worst such accusations, call ing the shooting “an assassination attempt by a madman inspired by the rhetoric of the radical left.” Former Attorney General William Barr chimed in , demanding that Democrats “stop their grossly irresponsible talk about Trump being an existential threat to democracy. He is not.” Barr, of course, is one of the people who knows firsthand how dangerous a Trump presidency would be, because he himself told us so. In testimony to the House January 6 committee, Barr described Trump as “detached from reality,” and he has called Trump’s thinking, “when left to his own devices,” a “horror show.” If Barr thinks these revelations should not lead us to conclude that Trump is an “existential threat,” I suppose he’s free to parse his own words.
And then comes Senator J. D. Vance of Ohio, unveiled this afternoon as the winner of Trump’s weeks-long The Apprentice: Extreme Sycophancy Edition and now the GOP vice-presidential nominee. Vance tied President Joe Biden’s campaign directly to the shooting: “Today is not just some isolated incident,” he posted only a few hours after it happened. “The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.”
Vance apparently didn’t think that such language was dangerous when he called Trump “cultural heroin” in an essay for this magazine in 2016, among other pointed criticisms Vance felt free to make before he ran for office. But the spectacle of ambition overpowering decency has been the most prominent feature of Vance’s short political career.
Former Trump Cabinet member Ben Carson was among those who resorted to the use of the nebulous they in making his accusations. “They tried to bankrupt him,” he posted shortly after the event. “They tried to slander him. They tried to imprison him. Now they have tried to kill him, but if God is protecting him, they will never succeed.”
Representative Mike Collins of Georgia, however, left no doubt who he blamed. Within minutes of the shooting, he posted : “Joe Biden sent the orders.”
These GOP partisans know exactly what they’re doing. They have always known that Trump himself is the source of much of the most violent rhetoric in modern American life. The former president’s speeches are a mad swirl of paranoia and rage at everyone who isn’t in his camp, and a constant source of embarrassment for supporters, especially elected political leaders in the Republican establishment, who want to portray him as a statesman. For these Trump allies, the attempt on the former president’s life was an opportunity to put Trump critics (including some in the media) on the defensive and to immunize Trump from any further condemnations of his own ghastly statements.
As Ed Luce of the Financial Times put it on social media yesterday, this behavior is nothing less than “an Orwellian attempt to silence what remains of the effort to stop [Trump] from regaining power.”
And it seems to be working. This morning, MSNBC canceled today’s edition of Morning Joe , a decision that one unnamed source explained to CNN was made “to avoid a scenario in which one of the show’s stable of two dozen-plus guests might make an inappropriate comment on live television that could be used to assail the program and network as a whole.” (As the NYU journalism professor Jay Rosen noted , MSNBC’s decision “brings further dimension to the trust-in-media problem: we don't trust ourselves.”)
Today, The New York Times opinion editor Kathleen Kingsbury sent a note to readers after outrage from Trump supporters about the Sunday insert in the print edition of the paper calling Trump unfit for office. “There is no connection between our prior decision to run this editorial package in print and Saturday’s incident,” Kingsbury explained, adding, “We would have changed our plans if we could have.” More to the point: The Trump editorial was already online two days before the shooting. The Times is now on its back foot about something it had already published .
Fortunately, more reasonable people are making the utterly sensible point that you can accurately call Donald Trump a menace to democracy and affirm that he is a reprehensible person while also condemning any violence in politics. My colleague David Frum was among the most eloquent of these voices:
Nobody seems to have language to say: We abhor, reject, repudiate, and punish all political violence, even as we maintain that Trump remains himself a promoter of such violence, a subverter of American institutions, and the very opposite of everything decent and patriotic in American life.
Trump’s behavior in the public square continues to merit withering denunciation. Criticizing him in the starkest terms is not wishing him personal harm, and those who assert otherwise are engaging in a cheap attempt to silence the just accusations of Americans who are genuinely concerned about Trump’s dark vision for their country.

Dr. Ruth, Richard Simmons, and the Joys of Eccentricity
By Gal Beckerman
For a child of the 1980s—like myself—the deaths of Ruth Westheimer and Richard Simmons over the past few days have been a reminder that we live in an era with a serious deficit in goofballs. They were true eccentrics. How else to describe a 4-foot-7 grandmother with a thick German accent doling out explicit sex advice with an impish giggle or an exuberant man in short shorts with a halo of curls who talked with his hands and implored everyone to sweat to the oldies? Dr. Ruth and Richard Simmons were as brightly colorful as my Saturday-morning cartoons or my bowl of Trix. But looking back at them now as caricatures risks obscuring the subtle revolutions they helped bring about. Dr. Ruth pushed intimate conversations about sex into the open, discussing orgasms and premature ejaculation with Johnny Carson. Simmons took exercise and loving your body from the reserve of the chiseled and gave them to anyone unafraid to twist their hips with him along to the strains of “Great Balls of Fire.”

In My Defense …
John Ewbank’s puzzle teaches us what not to do the next time we’re in an argument.
![an essay on criticism crossword clue A Barbie doll wearing a sponge on her head like a wedge of yellow cheese and holding little green pompoms while sitting on a ledge at a football game.](https://static01.nyt.com/images/2024/07/21/crosswords/21wordplay-barbie/21wordplay-barbie-articleLarge.jpg?quality=75&auto=webp&disable=upscale)
By Caitlin Lovinger
Jump to: Tricky Clues | Today’s Theme
SUNDAY PUZZLE — In his print introduction to this grid, Joel Fagliano writes: “John Ewbank is a scientific writer based in Macclesfield, England. This is the rare example of a puzzle where writing the theme clues took a similar amount of time to making the grid. John would like to put it on record that ‘ people who don’t like this puzzle smell bad and want to dumb down the crossword to the point where a 5-year-old could solve it .’”
I’m going to call this puzzle a doozy and confess that there was a moment when I nearly gave up, but I hope the rest of you will give it a chance before declaring the theme too obscure. If you become interested, it’s an entryway into a fascinating topic.
Today’s Theme
There are six entries in this theme set, at 22-, 30-, 47-, 65-, 85- and 101-Across. They culminate in a revealer entry at 114-Across that was integral to my figuring out this theme, rather than just being a cherry on top. The clues here are witty to the max: Each is a humorous depiction of a specific term that makes its solution.
The theme will immediately delight a subset of solvers — philosophers and debaters , rejoice — but I was clueless and had never heard most of the terms. So I floundered until I filled in the bottom right corner of the grid, and with it, the revealer. [Part of a flawed argument, examples of which are seen throughout this puzzle], 114-Across, solves to LOGICAL FALLACY. I knew this concept, at least, so some of the clues started to make sense.
Take 30-Across, [ Why was this chosen as today’s puzzle? Because it’s great! What makes it great? I mean, it was chosen for publication! ]. This is a simple case of CIRCULAR REASONING, which popped into my head with a few letters in place from crossing entries. Something clicked, which gave me confidence in my guess for 85-Across, [ If you criticize this puzzle, where will it end? Before long, you’ll be criticizing your mother’s cooking! ]. This is a SLIPPERY SLOPE argument (although there’s also a bit of a red herring , because what does anyone’s cooking have to do with anything?).
On the other hand, this theme’s span entry at 65-Across is spectacularly brutal; I’ll add “West Wing” fanatics and knowers of Latin to the pool of people who could fill this, but I was stumped. [ What’s more, one of those friends won the lottery right after solving it — coincidence? I think not! ] is an instance of POST HOC ERGO PROPTER HOC, or “after this, therefore because of this.”
