With Donald Trump having narrowly escaped death at the hands of a would-be assassin on Saturday, the state of the presidential race has never been more chaotic. In the weeks prior, all eyes were on Joe Biden and his severe mental and physical decline, with many high-level Democrats desperately trying to organize a way to force him out of the race.
Yet, after the attempt on Trump's life, the rush to replace Biden as the Democratic Party nominee has essentially ended, and not for the reason one might think. According to NBC News, the replacement campaign has lost steam not because Democrats think the president can seize a moment of unity, but because they think the race is now over.

— John Ekdahl (@JohnEkdahl) July 14, 2024 “We’re so beyond f---ed,” one longtime Democratic insider said, noting that the image of Trump thrusting his fist in the air, with blood dramatically smeared across his face, will be indelible.
“The presidential contest ended last night,” said a veteran Democratic consultant, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to give a candid assessment of his own party’s standing less than four months before the election.
“Now it’s time to focus on keeping the Senate and trying to pick up the House,” he said. “The only positive thing to come out of last night for Democrats is we are no longer talking about Joe Biden’s age today.”
A Biden campaign spokesperson did not respond to NBC News’ request for comment on how the attempted assassination of Trump might affect the dynamics of their rematch. A White House spokesperson declined to comment.

Maybe they can try winning by highlighting their appealing policies and reminding the voters of their accomplishments!
If I were a top Dem, I wouldn't want to run now, you lose now nobody will want you to run again, Best bet is to hope for an economic collapse and run in 2028
Dems call it “Fortifying” the election. Mark Elias has been very busy.
Neat trick!
Impeach the Cabinet, Biden and Harris (she had to know too).
Johnson becomes acting-President. Appoints a new Cabinet (starting at DOJ) and
Trump’s new term starts 6 months early. )))
I like it!
Fight the Dems like you’re the third monkey on the Ark ramp and it’s starting to rain!
There is not ONE complacent Trump supporter/voter anywhere.
That is the result of DEI.
Even when they are trying to shield a tall, burly man, they must have the right quota of women, short people and various races. Tall, strong white men need not apply.
You have the right idea. I’ll celebrate after Trump gives his first order in his second term.
W/o backstabbing GOPe rinos trying to subvert everything President Trump tries to do (Juan McCain and the ObolaCare vote comes to mind as one big example).

Collins said she will write in Nikki Haley. This lying fossilized woman needs to be voted out.
Yup. Don’t fall for it. Now is not the time for unity. Now is the time to crush the Rats and get a landslide victory for President Trump. Go as hard as you need to. Say whatever you must because if your voice is not loud then guns will have to be heard. Hard, raw speech still serves a purpose.
I am eternally grateful that little girl was Trump's SS agent that day. If it was a 6'2" guy, we never would have had that historic photo. Trump's face would have been completely blocked.
That photo won him the Presidency.
They are keeping Biden for the same reason they installed Biden. For protection. Biden knows where all the skeletons are, even this assassination attempt, and if he goes, the whole swamp goes.
Only if we can overcome election fraud.
Take heart Surrender Monkeys, the rodents will still win the Senate and House - right?
Ha ha ha ha go camping for the summer and don’t follow the news while you are gone. It will be good for the brain cells.
Schadenfreude tastes best cold.
Why “except?” Joe Biden was the biggest dead end of all in 2020. If I’m the DNC leadership and I have confidence that I can win a presidential election, an old wretched loser like Joe Biden is the LAST of those candidates I would have wanted to see as the nominee.
Hard to get complacent when they are inciting the assassination of your candidate.
I don’t think the other were electable. Even with all his faults, obviously Joe Biden was.
Dems aren’t giving up!
They are quietly organizing to cheat even more than 2020,
Laws have recently been changed in Wisc and Mich that will make it easier to get away with voter fraud.
