The issue is, that Republicans don't want to admit, his administration was still making good and wise decisions with most of the issues at hand.

His administration did god things and they did some pretty bad things.  The REAL issue, that you and others don’t want to admit, is that people don’t elect a cabal to be President.  They elect one single person to be President and when that person isn’t mentally/physically capable, as Joe wasnt…he should have been replaced by Kamala.   
 

If all he was, was a figurehead, the American people didn’t elect that.  They elected a President.  Good bad or indifferent.  The “weekend at Bernie’s” as one poster put it is a pretty big scandal that we should all pause and reflect on.

So, what's your side going to do with the current s#!t show that the vast majority of your side won't admit is a s#!tshow?

If I may resort to Whataboutism here:

Joe Biden is a cautionary tale. While he appeared to fulfill his Presidential duties competently for most of his term, he faculties took on a troubling decline during his final year in office. His party and his inner circle were paralyzed by the political and electoral implications and chose to repress any rumors and evidence of Biden's cognitive misfires -- promoting his successes instead. When Biden's issues went fully and unavoidably public in the debate, Democrats stood to lose either way: pulling an incumbent this late in an election, or pretending he could do the job another four years. Biden had no intention of stepping aside, but a broad coalition of the party game him no choice. 

The thing about cautionary tales is that you can learn from them. Joe Biden is the past. Donald Trump is the future. Do the Republicans demanding accountability for Biden's mental state from the party and press in any way recognize their own responsibility in this very moment? Where the stakes are suddenly much higher and the mental temperament is far more concerning? And the loyalist appointees and Fox News apologists are creating crazy and dishonest narratives virtually 24/7?

They should have had a primary.

Obviously they did, but there was no money or juice behind the C-list challengers. You become a pariah if you force the DNC to spend money in the primary that it could spend in the general. 

It only would have worked if Biden had graciously stepped aside anytime in 2023, putting his energies into the final year of his Presidency and letting the Democrats have an open primary rather than a crisis deadline that favored Kamala Harris. 

Biden's age had been voter's #1 concern from the get-go 2020, so it's not like nobody was paying attention. I'm no Washington insider, but I do know a Congressman who took regular meetings with Biden, and he says Joe was always good in these meetings....until he wasn't. And that was late-winter and spring of 2024 which entered into "oh f#&%" territory. The fact that the Democratic Party never had a Plan B for the 2024 election --- kinda forgetting that the one term Biden palate cleanser was part of the original deal -- is on the Dems, and until they get younger and more inspiring leadership they only have themselves to blame.
