WASHINGTON — President Biden dismissed a reporter’s question Tuesday about whether his three-day fundraising trip to California is cover for lining up Golden State Gov. Gavin Newsom to replace him atop the Democratic ticket in November.
“You’re going to California. Is this about coming up with a Plan B for 2024 — does Gavin need to stand by?” the journalist asked Biden on the White House lawn as he departed.
The 81-year-old president jokingly replied: “Are you ready?” and added, “Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.”
Newsom, 56, has been accused of running a “shadow campaign” for the presidency just in case Biden has to exit the contest for health reasons, though the governor has publicly said he’s foursquare behind the incumbent.

Biden probably farted and thought it was funny.

Raise your hand if you want Newsom to be the guy watching your back.

If you want Biden to understand what you are saying it is best not to mention Plan B. Biden can’t even figure out Plan A.
The question went way over Biden’s head.

If Newsome is the answer than the question is stupid.

The 81-year-old president jokingly replied: “Are you ready?” and added, “Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.”Which makes zero sense, unless you speak Dementia.

Biden said he was running for the Senate during the 2020 campaign. He’s called Harris the president more than once. Plan A, Plan B, irrelevant.
Obama, Jarrett, Soros, etc are running the show.

“Are you ready?” and added, “Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.” I don't think that was a response to a question. It was just confused mumbling.

KJP doesn't hide the fact that she reads prepared responses to the media's questions. Monotonous tone.

I guess this is the only time a socialist like Biden can come out and say he isn’t for Plan B.

Just keep pointing out to everyone the situation in San Francisco, Los Angeles and the rest of California. The pictures of squalor and homeless encampments all over the state should be enough to insure Newscum never gets to the White House.

I think if the shadow government has a plan B it may not include the Democrats.
The Democrats are f-ing things up so bad - they are only puppets but they are terrible at being puppets.
If I’m a billionaire oligarch I might be thinking - let’s put the whole taking over the world thing on hold - let Trump get the world out of this mess - and then resume taking over the world after Trump fixes it.

““Are you ready?” and added, “Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.””
Sounds like a threat to me.

Joe Biden laughed because he found it funny that somebody would think he was president now after getting so few votes in 2020.
On a more serious note, I don’t think Gruesome would allow Obama to run is administration from a bunker in DC. Or maybe he would be given no alternative.
