Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) on Friday confirmed reporting that he is being pushed to challenge President Biden for the Democratic nomination in 2024.
Why it matters: The moderate three-term congressman would be by far the most politically established Biden rival were he to mount a bid.
Biden's current major challengers are Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a lawyer and prominent vaccine skeptic, and Marianne Williamson, a spiritual guru who ran for president in 2020.
Driving the news: Phillips has been receiving "inquiries about his willingness to challenge Biden" and will meet with Democratic donors about the prospect in New York City next week, according to Politico.
The outlet reported that Phillips is expected only to launch a bid if the 80-year-old president suffers a major decline in health or popularity. "The reporting is accurate," Phillips told Axios. He first confirmed it to the Star Tribune.

Lol, who?
Surprise surprise. I expect them to be lining up soon. Whoever they nominate will be far, far, far better than Xiden.
Who?
Not Biden.
“Moderate” is a word that almost instantly clogs my shit filter these days.
He’s more left than Biden.
Yep. It is now impossible to hid his declining mental health, even with a teleprompter, note cards and staff to help him get off state.
Puddin Brain has already suffered a major decline
the only demonrat that could beat this looooser?-
ILHAN OMAR!!

Funny that Robert Kennedy, Jr. is said to be “a lawyer and prominent vaccine skeptic.”
So much centers around the Left’s myth of a “vaccine” that conquered Covid. They won’t let go of it.
Reminds me of the classic poem:
The Red Wheelbarrow
By William Carlos Williams
so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens
5. Pretty soon you are going to need a bigger filter, in fact many of them.
Dean Phillips, the "moderate" with a lifetime rating of voting 96% liberal according to the ACU.
There is no such thing as a moderate Democrat in Congress (and hasn't been one for decades), regardless of how much the media-controllers try to gaslight the politically illiterate into thinking otherwise.
Quick, Comrades…..RFK, Jr. Is upsetting our scam….send someone out to be a squirrel!
Yep.
Who knew we’d ever like and stand up for a Dem? At least support him against the 100% corrupt Dems.
