Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) said in an interview this week that literally hundreds of Democrat U.S. lawmakers are apprehensive about President Joe Biden being the party’s nominee heading into the 2024 presidential race, but that they are too afraid to say anything.
Phillips’ remarks come after multiple polls have found that Democrat voters do not want Biden to be the party’s nominee again for a variety of reasons, including unfavorable economic conditions, skyrocketing inflation rates, disastrous foreign policy decisions, and the general view among some that he is too old and not mentally fit for office.
“This is not a knock on Joe Biden, just a wish for competition,” Phillips told The Atlantic. “In the business world, if the dominant brand in a category had favorability ratings like the current president does, you would see a number of established brands jump into that category. Believe me, there are literally hundreds in Congress who would say the same thing. But they simply won’t f***ing say a word.”
The remarks also come after Biden has continued to show his age in recent weeks, including falling on the stairs of Air Force one while visiting Europe this month.
This latest incident of Biden falling comes after White House physician Kevin O’Connor claimed last week that Biden was “a healthy, vigorous 80-year-old male who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief.”
Biden’s fall comes two years after he repeatedly fell while walking up the steps to Air Force One as he was preparing to go to Atlanta to visit with community leaders following an incident that happened in the city.
The incident in March 2021 happened just a few months after he fell and fractured his foot while he was allegedly chasing one of his dogs after he got out of the shower. Biden fell last summer while straddling his bicycle as he stood still on the road and tried to talk to reporters.
The rest of the world is laughing at us...................
Democrat voters do not want Biden to be the party’s nominee again for a variety of reasons, including unfavorable economic conditions, skyrocketing inflation rates, disastrous foreign policy decisions, and the general view among some that he is too old and not mentally fit for office.
And they suspect he’s a pedophile and a grifter................
Because the Blue Rat Gestapo will kill even their own people if they have to. You either toe the Party line, or you are canceled… possibly permanently.
Plus they know that if Trump is the actual GOP nominee, unless there is massive cheating (like the 1st time) there is no possible way that Pedo Joe can get reelected.
The problem for Democrats is....OK. Then who do you nominate?
Do you spurn Heels up Harris? Black women are THE key constituency of the Democrat party.
Do you nominate Buttplug as many in the Deep State badly want to? Firstly he’s openly gay so that means plenty of Black voters are going to stay home. Secondly, he’s been a dismal failure at everything as transportation secretary and he was a failed mayor of a college town before that.
Gavin Newsome? California is a mess. That brand of far left insanity ain’t gonna sell in the Midwest where elections are decided.
My biggest concern is North Carolina governor Roy Cooper who utterly sucks, but thanks to a Republican dominated state legislature, has not been able to push through any of the far left lunacy he otherwise would have. Thus he can claim he’s a “moderate” even though anybody paying attention knows he’s not.
