Former President Barack Obama is pressuring President Biden to reconsider his 2024 run for re-election, according to a new report.
Obama and Biden have only spoken once since the president’s debate debacle on June 27 — but stressed during that conversation that his old running mate’s chances of beating Donald Trump were “greatly diminished,” the Washington Post reported.
The 44th president also stressed that while Biden’s legacy was important to him, only his former vice president could make the call on whether to stay in the race. “Our campaign is not working through any scenarios where President Biden is not at the top of the ticket.

Well Biden did say..."If the Almighty came down from on high and told me to drop out, I would "

There is no doubt he will step down- probably Monday night in an Oval Office speech reminiscent of LBJ’s 1968 address.
The only question now is how much of a payoff to the Biden Crime Family FJB will demand.
It will be hundreds of millions to his library fund and the Beau Biden Foundation which he will then funnel to his family.

Oh, the libs. They scream and cry about "destroying deomcracy", but have no issue with undermining "the will of the people" who voted for Joe as their nominee. When they think they can't win, they're all in for changing the rules! Biggest bunch of losers I've ever seen.

Typical liberal BS. I support you when it looks like we are winning.
I condemn you when we are losing.
Live with your stupidity.

No matter what they do, the Democrat party looks inept. If Kamala Harris is the next one in line, what will she run on?

Dear God please don't let the Dems' replacement be H. Clinton. I find it odd that she is not mentioned in recent media .... or I have not seen it. Maybe she is so poisonous that the Dem powers-that-be are not even considering her along with the ho Harris, Newsom, that twit Michigan governor or who knows else??? or is Clinton the surprise the smoke-filled-room Dems intend to spring?

It worries me if Obama wants Biden replaced. He can only want to replace him with someone even worse to insure his destroy America agenda is in place for another 4 years.

Useful idiots never learn. When their usefulness is gone, they'll still be idiots and therefore, eliminated.

I have a hard time believing that the assistant, part-time college teacher community organizer is the puppeteer.
Isn’t it more likely that obumbum’s strings are pulled by something like a US marxist group + a muslim marxist group. Imagine if they could get the nuclear codes. Obumbum seems too lazy to be the head marxist.

Kamala-president and Barack-bp. I think that is constitutionally legal, but not sure.

I'm still thinking Big Mike might jump in! It would be like Texas' first female governor, elected after her husband had been impeached and couldn't run again - her campaign slogan was 'Vote for Ma Ferguson! Get two governors for the price of one!'

Nope. NO ONE not eligible to succeed to the Presidency may be elected Vice President. In this case, thankfully.

Re #17, not constitutional. No person who is no eligible to be President can run for VP. The Zero is not eligible.

The election is in four months. Nearly impossible for the Dems to replace Joe and put an effective campaign together. They know the WH is lost, so their best option is to let Kamala get creamed and try to hold onto the Senate, which will not be easy. The frosting on the cake is that Kamala's political career will be over and they can ignore her whining about racism and sexism.
