WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has benefited from frustrated Democratic donors and elected officials failing to rally behind a single plan for replacing him, but that may be changing.
Some Democrats would like Biden to stay in the race. Others want him to step aside so that Vice President Kamala Harris can become the party’s nominee. A third set believes the nominee should be someone else — or at least that there should be competition for the spot.
That fundamental disagreement has contributed to paralysis within the party, buying Biden more time to try to reassure his allies. But he hasn’t been able to do that yet, and the public and private calls for him to vacate the nomination, regardless of who would replace him, have been growing in number and intensity.
“Donors are done,” said one Democratic lawmaker who believes Biden should step aside but has so far avoided saying so publicly.
Another donor said that Biden’s performance in a one-on-one interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that is due to be aired Friday night would be a major test to see if the president can hold back a deluge of defections — even though the donor already has reached a conclusion.
“He has to get out of the race,” the donor said. “If he keeps dragging this out, they’ll be angry at him.”

Any donations to Biden’s campaign would be legally difficult to reassign to a different candidate.
Hang in there Joe. You are the only option. Stay strong. Let’s go Brandon.
It has been amusing to see the panic among Democrats and the media talking heads on cable TV news channels.
Stay all the way to November Dementia Joe, you are Trump’s best chance at being re-elected..Trump wont even have to break a sweat
Election season hasn’t even started yet
The media’s trying to mount an insurrection, but Biden holds all the cards, even if he might be short of a full deck. Democrat donors think Trump is literally Hitler. They’re not gonna stop giving to Biden, given that they think the alternative is Treblinka.
Biden will not only get all the money he needs, he’ll likely way outraise Trump. Zuckerberg hasn’t piped up, but he did spend $400m in 2020.
This is the absolutely best result - buying Biden more time while the party remains in total chaos.
Stay in it, Joe. Don’t go, Joe.
Don’t buy Biden more time. Buy him a retirement. Say, $10 million to be split equally among the family members. Biden himself won’t need much at a hospice.
You haven't fully gone to the dark side yet. You have to ROOT for Brandon because he's as sharp and focused as he's ever been. A warning about going to the dark side - you may not come back. Try 50% at first. It does make yer brain hurt just a little bit.
Democrat donors and politicians who turn traitorous to Biden.
Does anyone else want to....drop out?

that’s called a “primary”, suckers!
I must admit Biden looked good answering questions before boarding Air Force One today and says he’s eager to debate DJT again.
One hundred years ago there were no primaries—just convention delegates voting as they pleased.
See, I said they’d have tamped-down in a week
