President Biden continued to bleed support from Democrats Saturday, who called on him to leave the 2024 presidential race after his Friday ABC interview failed to silence worries about his age and cognitive abilities.
Minnesota Rep. Angie Craig became the fifth sitting House Democrat to urge Biden to call it quits.
“As an elected leader, I feel a responsibility to be honest about what I believe, even when it’s hard to hear. President Biden is a good man & I appreciate his lifetime of service. But I believe he should step aside for the next generation of leadership,” Craig, who’s in a tough reelection fight in Minnesota, wrote.
Meanwhile, David Axelrod, the architect of Obama’s two successful presidential campaigns, was far more blunt. He called the Friday sit-down “sad” to watch.
“When George Stephanopoulos asked him if he’d be willing to take a cognitive test, he said, ‘I take a cognitive test every day.’ Well, the fact is, that may be true, but 75% of the American people think he fails,” Axelrod said in post-interview analysis on CNN Friday.
The wave of defections suggest that President Biden’s attempt to clean up things by sitting for an ABC News interview with George Stephanopoulos Friday has failed spectacularly.
When Craig came out against keeping Biden at the top of the ticket, she joined Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.), Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas), Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.). All five are calling on the president to step aside after his disastrous debate performance against Donald Trump.
If Trump was struggling, does anyone think for one second the media would throw him a lifeline… an opportunity to fix a mistake?
The democrats are always playing a home game. Always! Must be nice.
The communist DP is panicking and yet we’re supposed to believe from the government-corporate media that the polls are swinging back to Pedo Joe?
Not buying it. If the polls were swinging Joe Biden’s way we wouldn’t hear peep in the DP.
It’s just a matter of time, really. It’s going to be Harris/Newsom.
With home umpires.
They are also bleeding time. The later they throw in the towel, the harder it will be for the party to gain any semblance of respectability.
And they are dragging the MSM down with them.
No, no, no! Biden’s fine...trust me...give him some time to recover from his cold. Check back with me next week and I’ll tell you the exact opposite and then another 180 a week later.
Absolutely not. Whatever gave you that idea? They need to just keep doing what they are doing. Biden’s fine...he just needs more sleep.
Harris and Newsome are both from California.
She mentioned her list the other day. Pete Buttigig (sp) the Secretary of the Interior was the top of her list I believe.
Of course not they would’ve continually stabbed him like the Senate stabbed Ceasar until they did the job. But something interesting just dong on me, the media pukes ratings have been in the toilet for 3 1/2 years. What is it they desperately need to bring in revenue again? His name is Trump! They’re willing to throw FJB under the bus for the sake of continual power and money. Too many layoffs are happening ever since Trump was cheated out the election in 2020. That’s the only thing I can think of why they are brutally slashing their own candidate. Just doesn’t make sense why they’re going so extremely hard on him.
No honor among thieves. Or traitors.
Pete Buttigig (sp) the Secretary of the Interior was the top of her list I believe.LOLOLOL : )
;)
He can’t stop his ass from bleeding either...
