Democrats looking to replace Biden after debate ‘disaster’ – Politico

Joe Biden news

The party is “panicked” by the US president’s performance in his first face-off with Donald Trump, the outlet has reported.

The Democrats are actively discussing the possibility of replacing Joe Biden on their ticket for the November 5 election after the US president’s “faltering” display in his first debate against Republican rival Donald Trump, Politico has reported.

Hopes among the Democrats that a strong performance by the 81-year-old Biden would ease concerns about his advanced age had turned out to be in vain, the outlet acknowledged on Thursday. “Instead, it [the debate] did the opposite,” leaving the party “panicked,” Politico said.

“No one expected this nosedive,” a senior adviser to top Democratic officials told the outlet. Biden “was bad on message, bad on substance, bad on counter punching, bad on presentation, bad on non-verbals. There was no bright spot in this debate for him.”

According to the report, three strategists close to three potential Democratic presidential candidates “had been bombarded with text messages” as the CNN-hosted debate in Atlanta, Georgia was underway.

One adviser told Politico that fellow Democrats wanted their candidate to step forward as an alternative to Biden. Another claimed that they had “taken no less than half a dozen key donors texting ‘disaster’ and [the] party needs to do something,” but stressed that “not much is possible” unless Biden himself decides to withdraw from the race, the outlet said.

One major Democratic donor, who previously supported Biden, said in a text message that the president had delivered “the worst performance in history” during his debate with Trump, according to Politico.

“Biden needs to drop out. No question about it,” the donor insisted, suggesting Maryland Governor Wes Moore or his Michigan counterpart, Gretchen Whitmer, as possible replacements.

An adviser to major Democratic Party donors told the outlet that some of his bosses, who had gathered for a meeting in Atlanta, were texting “WTF” as they watched the debate.

“Our only hope is that he bows out, we have a brokered convention, or dies. Otherwise we are f***ing dead,” the adviser said, as cited by Politico.

A CNN Flash Poll issued after the debate revealed that 67% of registered voters who watched the event thought Trump outperformed Biden on the night.

When asked by Politico if Biden is planning to step aside amid the backlash, a campaign aide replied “of course not.” Another member of the president’s team insisted that Biden is “the only person who has ever beaten Donald Trump. He will do it again.”

  1. It’s a dirty Democrat set up. Vivek has picked it right. This is the first time in US history the debates have been held before the Convention. The Democrats insisted on this so they can do another dirty trick because they can never win fair and square. They’re usingSleepy Joe to make him look senile, all part of the plan. The pressure will come on for Joe to stand aside, which he will do at or after the Convention in August at which time he will be replaced. I’m picking his replacement will be Big Mike, I mean Michelle, Obama, and she / he will ride a tide of massive hype in a honeymoon period, first black woman president etc and she’ll take the presidency, with the help of the usual Democrat vote and polls rigging of course, gaslighted as usual by the fake news media

  2. Both parties should be ” panicky”. Those two represent ” the best of America” , hey ??
    What a level. My kids could hold a more interesting ” debate” on the ” accusation mode”.
    The whole world is watching how the USA is sinking. Sinking low…..

  3. Biden has been half witted since the sham US election in 2020. He hasn’t been making decisions, He is simply a figurehead wheeled out for ceremonial occasions, a bit like a regimental mascot. If you watch older videos of him speaking when he was a younger deep state asset, he was simply a more cogent liar. It was obvious in 2020 he was well into physical and cognitive decay. It shows the true power of the US deep state that they managed to get him elected and keep him there this long. In the past four years there hasn’t been one video of him where he isn’t faltering in speech or trying to find out where he is and what he is doing there. Americans are now baffled, naive, still believing in Old Glory, and reluctant to face the truth that Biden actually represents the moral and physical state of their country. And all they have to replace him with is Trump.
    Shame on all the world leaders who kept up the charade.

  4. 1. Bison..I..I..I mean..BIDEN, is forced to resign;
    2. The former prostitute and ‘Squad member’ Kamala, takes over from being VP;
    3. The (s)elections are held, and a more elaborate and well planned planned vote fraud occurs, (as Biden leaked during one of his demented geriatric slip-ups…);
    4. The Communist NWO / WEF / WHO Demoncrats appoint Gavin Newsome (the Communist Kalifiornia Governor who has forced millions of California residents to leave the State..while dealing with the Chinese as a conflict of interest in his office) to run Newsome as the Demoncrat Presidential Candidate;
    5. Newsome is fraudulently ‘appointed’ via the corrupt Electoral College (which removes the popular vote from the American People) and vote rigging as the next ‘President’ of the corporation known as the United States of America, which will become weaponised via lawfare and ‘Anti-Terror Laws’ with Israeli-trained Police which will attack the American Patriots in the same manner the Palestinians have been attacked;
    6. The Police State then rises!

  5. He will be replaced by Michelle Obama. She has enough popularity to provide a plausible basis to rig the election again
