Biden says he’d drop out if diagnosed with ‘medical condition’
The Washington Times ^ | July 17, 2024 | Victor Morton

President Biden opened the door just a crack on potentially dropping out of the race.

After having said earlier this month that it would take word from “the Lord Almighty” to make him leave the race, Mr. Biden downgraded the source Wednesday to an M.D.

Asked in an interview with BET what would make him re-evaluate his insistence that he will be on the ballot in November, he replied “if I had some medical condition that emerged.”

“If doctors came to me and said, you got this problem and that problem,” he added, according to a clip released by the network Wednesday afternoon.

The interview will air starting at 10 p.m. Wednesday.

President Biden trails ‘nearly every’ other Dem, including Kamala Harris, in disastrous poll

President Biden trails “nearly every” Democrat tested as an alternative party leader with voters — including Vice President Kamala Harris — in seven critical battleground states, according to a disastrous new poll.

A BlueLabs Analytics polling memo distributed to Democratic Party — which interviewed more than 15,000 voters in important swing states, including Pennsylvania — found that alternative candidates have an average three-point lead on the 81-year-old commander-in-chief.

“Nearly every tested Democrat performs better than the President. This includes Vice President Kamala Harris who runs better than the President,” the survey concluded.

Sounds like they’re getting close to Jill’s price (pardon Hunter, cash, size of Secret Service detail post retirement, private jet usage, etc.).

Obama through Clooney. Pelosi through Schiff. Schumer. Jeffries.

He’ll be negotiating terms soon to try and save his hide.

Joe Biden DOESN’T have a number of medical conditions RIGHT NOW? Listen, we all got eyes. We see something is not right.

Quit lying to yourself, Joe. You have access to some of the finest of medical care right now, take advantage of it and get a thorough workup. You may be surprised to learn that getting old has a number of conditions very much exacerbated by overstressing yourself and you have just about the most high-stress job in the world.

Well, it would be a high-stress job if you were paying attention to what is going on around you, and actually carrying out the duties demanded of you..

It sounds like he is opening the door to stepping aside.

I do hope Bidon stays healthy.

The only way to save “Our Democracy” is by hand-picking someone who avoided the whole primary thing and didn’t bother to collect votes from actual people.

The election is NOT over.

PDJT is in mortal danger. They have already tried to kill him once and failed. If he wins RE-election, we will have a REAL investigation into J13, and the Deep State culprits know they will be caught out, or sold out by someone making a deal.

They will almost certainly try again.

In the meantime, now the Deep State has the perfect cover to “swap out” Joe by taking him out at a rally. They will blame Trump of course.

We have entered incredibly dangerous times.

How does he step down from the ticket, and have the party gracefully select someone other than Kamala Harris? I don't think that can happen, and yet they all know if she was selected they would lose even more support once the voting public had to face that.

It's a beautiful thing watching them squirm.

It is not over till the votes are counted (or forged).

Trump is barely beating a half-dead opponent who will soon be replaced.
I wouldn’t count any chickens. I still haven’t met a 2020 Biden voter who will be voting for Trump.

Don't give up, Joe! Don't listen to the naysayers. Hang tough! Show your critics. You can do it!

All the Democrats I have talked to say Biden is too old and infirm.

They think Trump showed real courage.

We certainly have. We’re going to see chaos and turmoil like we’ve never imagined. That’s not fear porn but the reality of what we’re facing.
