The Democratic governors who met with Biden yesterday, said they would support President Joe Biden's reelection bid after a candid discussion with him about his weak performance in last week's debate. On the other hand, Nancy Pelosi summed it up best, whether Biden's debate performance was it a condition or just an episode?!! That's what I would like to know too and so would a lot of others?!! Biden has a real dilemma facing him?!!
Former Obama administration official Van Jones said Wednesday that Democrats, behind closed doors, are discussing “how” to replace President Biden at the top of the ticket, “not whether.”
The CNN commentator said the Democrats who defend Biden on TV have “completely different” conversations in private, amid growing concern in the party about Biden’s standing as the presumptive nominee.
“I understand people want to, you know, defend him and protect him and give him the space and the dignity to make his own choice,” Jones told CNN’s Jim Sciutto Wednesday, referring to Biden.
“But there is a big conversation happening right now about how this happens – not whether,” he added.
Jones painted a chaotic picture of the Democratic party as it tries to figure out a path forward in private discussions.
“Behind the scenes, it’s full-scale panic,” Jones said. “People are passing around legal memos, PDFs are flying back and forth on WhatsApp, trying to figure out, what are the options? How can you replace Biden? How do you get him to do it in a way where he feels respected, as he should be respected?”
Jones suggested Democrats were proceeding under the assumption that Vice President Kamala Harris would be next in line for the top spot. Among the questions Democrats are trying to answer, Jones said, is, “Who should Kamala Harris’s vice president be?”
Jones praised Biden as “a great candidate” but said Democrats must be responsible in determining what the best path forward is.
