These major media outlets have called for Biden to drop out
The Hill ^ | 6/30/24 | Nick Robertson

Some of the country’s largest media outlets have called on President Biden to step aside and allow another Democrat to take on former President Trump in November, following the president’s concerning debate performance last week.

Biden’s first debate performance raised alarms among some Democrats and supporters, with the president struggling to string ideas together or rebut Trump’s many false statements. Almost half of Democrats in a new poll say Biden should allow a different candidate to take the party’s nomination.

Here are the major outlets that have called on Biden to drop out of the race.

The New York Times

The New Yorker

The Economist

Chicago Tribune

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Other newspapers weren’t as direct. Both The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal editorial boards said bowing out should be seriously considered by the president, though neither went as far as to explicitly recommend it.

Exactly. This guy was a bumbling stumbling moron during the Biden basement campaign . What corruption foisted on the American public. All those that participated and media are all fraudsters that need to do prison time. Now.

These publications didn’t just find this out on last Thursday. They’ve covered up his condition for years.

Personally, I hope he stays in the election race. I would like nothing more than for him to look worse than George McGovern did in 1972 against Nixon. McGovern didn’t even carry his home state! He carried MA and DC for a total of 17 electoral votes. Biden might do worse.

No. But they’re still popular with the independent voters.

True and it’ll be something to keep an eye on.

My gut says they aren’t going to put a lot of effort in this one, but I’m wrong a lot so maybe they do.

Yeah Clinton is old. And he had some health issues.

But I think it's mostly because Trump got him to shut up.

I agree,

The poon hound looked terrible the last time I saw him, which was about 5 years ago.

The same outlets who were praising him for the past 3 years.

Lots of speculation going on regarding the after shock events.

But one thing really sticks out.

This is the first timer a presidential debate was held before the conventions. Why is that?

Discuss amongst yourselves.

By tomorrow the New York Times, the New Yorker, the Economist, the Chicago Tribune and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution will singing another tune...

Doesn't matter. Trumps campaign ads have written themselves. Biden can't recover from that - but still may win through the massive cheating machine they developed.

Funny thing is that CNN helped Trump with the debate rules so he was seen as restrained and presidential. And allowed Joe to self-destruct...

A "soft coup" by some of Joe's handlers?

Let Biden make his case at the Democrats’ convention. The parties have conventions for a reason. Bumbling Biden, Noxious Newson and Witch Whitmer can make their cases at the convention.

It’s not up to the New York Times or some woman like Stormy Daniels or Maureen Dowd to decide who runs America.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/

Biden has been speaking around the country. Some of his speeches have been taped.

As long as it is before it is “put a lid on it” time [9:30am], he’s in fine ‘rat form.

Remember The Committee to Reelect the President (CREEP)?

Jill will deal with the perfidious.

It was astonishing to me to see that CNN behaved themselves this time.
