Dems Getting SERIOUS About Biden’s Reelection – NOT HAPPY
Representative Ami Bera (D-CA) cautions that the Democrats have to worry greatly about preserving their majority next November.
Newly minted Republican Vice Presidential nominee JD Vance said on X that if Democrats think President Biden lacks the mental acuity for a re-election bid, it should raise concerns about his capacity to serve as president until next January.
“If Joe Biden doesn’t have the cognitive function to run for re-election, then he certainly doesn’t have the cognitive function to remain as Commander-In-Chief,” Vance posted. “How can any Dem pushing him to drop out of the presidential race, argue in good faith that he should stay on as POTUS?”
“The question is, if he’s not going to be their nominee because he’s not up to it, how can he be our president for the next six months?” Rubio said, according to Politico. “If there’s something wrong with you that doesn’t allow you to run for president, how can you still be there as president? If they’re going to remove him as nominee, they’ve got to remove him as president, and that’s really bad for our country.”
Nate Silver, a polling expert, tweeted that Biden should “transition the presidency to [Vice President Kamala] Harris within 30-60 days, but I’m there now. Something is clearly wrong here.”
Representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA) has also come out to publicly claim that Biden should resign.
She told KGW-TV: “Americans deserve to feel their president is fit enough to do the job. The crisis of confidence in the president’s leadership needs to come to an end. The president should do what he knows is right for the country and put the national interest first.”
More and more Democrats have urged Biden to withdraw from the presidential race after his disastrous performance in last month’s debate.
In a Friday op-ed for Rolling Stone, historian Alexis Coe wrote that Biden should step down to “preserve his legacy.”
The move could also be the best chance for keeping the White House in November, according to presidential historian Allan Lichtman who has correctly predicted nine of the last 10 elections advertised.
