The president responded by pushing back, telling Pelosi he has seen polls that indicate he can win, one source said. Another one of the sources described Biden as getting defensive about the polls.

Removing Biden will demoralize the American people, devastate turnout and result in a Reganesque landslide come November and a concurrent loss of the House and Senate.

You will piss off those who do not want elites picking the candidate, you will frustrate Biden supporters, you will demoralize the base, you will replace him with either a dislike Harris or an unknown and hand ------- a talking point to ride to the election. This is so incredibly clear.

As opposed to being lead by a presidential candidate who freezes like a deer in headlights and can't think on topic for more than five seconds?

Yahweh-forbid that the Dems take into account that the public noticed the king has no clothes.

It's more than that; donations have slowed drastically. Because donors, big and small, have better things to do with their money than burn it in honor of Joe's poor judgment.

Former president Barack Obama has told allies in recent days that President Biden's path to victory has greatly diminished and he thinks the president needs to seriously consider the viability of his candidacy, according to multiple people briefed on his thinking.

Obama has spoken with Biden only once since the debate, and he has been clear in his conversations with others that the future of Biden's candidacy is a decision for the president to make.
