Biden “Seriously Considering” Dropping Out of Election Race

by Will Jones
3 July 2024 7:49 PM

Joe Biden has told an ally he is weighing up whether to run against Donald Trump in November’s U.S. election, according to the New York Times. Citing anonymous sources, the newspaper wrote that “the President is seriously considering whether he can recover after a devastating performance on the debate stage in Atlanta on Thursday”. Sky News has more.

Joe Biden said overnight on Tuesday he “nearly fell asleep” during last week’s first Presidential debate during which commentators widely said he performed poorly.

The New York Times, which called for President Biden to step aside after the debate, is reporting an anonymous “key ally” of the President said: “He knows if he has two more events like that, we’re in a different place” by the weekend.

The [ally] emphasised the President is still fighting for re-election but he understands his next few appearances are pivotal.

Another anonymous adviser told the New York Times the President was “well aware of the political challenge he faces”.

After the report was published, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates wrote on social media: “This claim is absolutely false.”

Worth reading in full.

Yes l read this a couple of hours ago, seriously, considering dropping out? He told a friend?
That’s double speak for, “he’s dropping out wether he likes it or not”
He doesn’t even know he’s about to be pushed!

“Seriously considering”

Sure he is. Poor guy is barely able to consider which way he needs to walk off stage…

In which case how do they avoid the default option of Kamala Harris?
She is vice president and in these woke ridden times she seems to tick a number of woke-ist boxes. How could she be sidelined without them being accused of every woke and ethnic offence under the sun?

Very tricky as only Michele ticks a greater number of boxes and not sure the other Democrats want a 4th term of the Obamies. Popcorn time!

Not only that – but the funds raised have to go to Biden – Harris – if they both go – so does the money – and we know enough to always follow the money.

It doesn’t matter that he is senile, the power is behind the throne and they only need a figurehead. At least Trump appears to be capable and thinking so those behind can advise not decide!

Joe thinks it is the egg and spoon race he is in. All this time you have seen him wandering about the stage and looking behind curtains and wondered what he was doing, well now we know. He has been looking for the spoon.

But it could be bad news for Trump as I hear Mrs Obama will enter the race. Very bad news for Americans though as well.
