How Democrats Learned to Cast Aside Reservations and Embrace Biden 2024
NYTimes ^ | 04/24/2023

Posted on 04/24/2023 5:37:37 AM PDT by devane617

As President Biden nears the formal announcement of his 2024 re-election bid, one of the most important developments of the campaign is something that hasn’t happened at all: No serious primary challenger ever emerged.

Mr. Biden has all but cleared the field despite concerns about his age — at 80, he is already the oldest American president in history — and the persistent misgivings about the president held by a large number of the party’s voters. Democrats yearn for a fresh face in 2024, according to repeated polls, they just don’t know who that would be.

After Democrats won more races than expected in the 2022 midterm elections, any energy to challenge Mr. Biden quickly dissipated. The left has stayed in line even as Mr. Biden has lately made more explicit appeals toward the center. And would-be rivals have stayed on the sidelines.

The early entry of Donald J. Trump into the race immediately clarified that the stakes in 2024 would be just as high for Democrats as they were in 2020. The former president has proved to be the greatest unifying force in Democratic politics in the last decade, and the same factors that caused the party to rally behind Mr. Biden then are still present today. Add to that the advantages of holding the White House and any challenge seemed more destined to bruise Mr. Biden than to best him.

Recon the title is a leading statement from the folks at the Slimes? The entire article sounds like desperation to me.

The Democrats have learned that can get away with having a sock puppet in the White House. Corruption and incompetence aren’t problems for them.

Nah, the Slimes knows the Democrat Cheat Machine is well oiled. Biden will win 100% of the vote like Stalin did.

I just saw a clip of the Sniffer walking just now. Absolutely appalling. He is an insult to the nation and its history. The insult is not that he has a disability, that catches up with all who live long enough, it is that he is touted as the best the nation has while endangering the very survival of the nation.

The NY Times, trying to make their wishes sound like reality.

What’s clear is that, the Times is already campaigning for Biden, while the American public doesn’t feel that Biden can even make it to the campaign or even to the duties he is currently supposed to be doing.

“...endangering the very survival of the nation.”

That is exactly what Dems want—America destroyed and the Constitution voided.

Even USA Today has RFK getting 14% of Pedo Joes voters

Not much, but enough to make them squirm a bit

The best hope the Rs have is if Biden runs again with Kamala as VP. The likely prospect of a POTUS Kamala might help Trump win. That’s about the only hope for DT imo.

It is about what Trump had when he began, and no one thought he had a chance. If justice is served with the Biden Crime issues, then Biden won’t run. So the Democrats have to start working on at least a viable candidate that can be groomed because time is running out and they don’t have a candidate yet.

Only mindless liberal idiots think Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are capable of winning the 2020 elections, much less running even a summer lemonade stand. These are the dumbest two individuals to ever occupy any political office in U.S. history. They are also the most criminally corrupt individuals to ever occupy any political office in history and every sane person knows it.

That's actually it. What the RATS—meaning Obama in the background—want to avoid is what happened in the movie Dave where the in lieu of President starts acting as the President. They know Dr. Jill will make sure Biden takes his meds and signs what needs to be signed, but they cannot know for sure with anyone else and they need more time to finish Obama's fundamental transformation.

That’s what I’m thinking. Since the Election Thefts of 2020 and 2022 have not been addressed, I’m afraid that there is no point in bothering with Voting again.

We are in a position that we need to consider other alternatives.

But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.
