Operation Dump Biden Goes Into High Gear‐What Pelosi Reportedly Told Him
[Red State] Joe Biden might have gotten a little grace period immediately after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump from the Democrats trying to push him to step aside from the 2024 race.

We reported earlier about the move made by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), talking one-on-one with Biden to persuade him to get out, while Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) also went on record saying Biden should quit the race.

A Pelosi source said that what Schiff said was supposedly "news" to her. Politico reporter Rachel Bade had a great response to that effort to deflect by Pelosi's team.

#1 Dr. J

Step 1. Get and keep him out of sight with a sounding excuse (COVID).

Step 2. Press release, Not doing well due to "COVID".

Step 3. "Covid" has drained him. But he is recovering.

Step 4. He's running things from his remote location, while he "fully" recovers.

Step 5. Democrat Convention speech Remotely digitally handled.

Step 6. Insert your guesses from here......

#9 Mega-donors? But the Democrats are the party of the working man, the little guy. It is the Republicans who are the party of the fat cats, like hillbillies, farmers, and other rural undesirables.

#13 I couldn't argue with any of what has been said. But you have to wonder just who they are going to get to go down with the ship in November.

Who wants to volunteer for that, even IF it's an attempt to hold on to House and Senate seats?

At this point, leave him in. That way the crisis is contained and will depart along with Joe and they can make any excuse they want to after the fact.

#14 Who wants the job? Kamala and Hillary? I think the Democrat Party would be happy to have either of them be buried in a landslide and disappear from public life.

#16 I'm assuming Gavin knows its a loss this year and will stay out. I could be wrong but he's young and I would think the field in 2028 would be better.

#17 Biden is up to his neck in personal debt what with refinancing his properties upwards numerous times. Look for a buyout in the millions

It was elder abuse back in 2020 and they all knew it. But that is the least of their crimes.

#19 Question: If Biden decides to quit, will he also quit trying to have Trump whacked? Or would they like to see Vance vs. Harris?
