”The coming days are critical …”
President Biden’s alleged comments to some of his staff
Already sinking in the polls across the political spectrum, during his recent meeting with Democratic governors President Biden excused his dismal debate performance, in part, on his travel schedule and getting too little sleep; and he didn’t want any more late evening activities.
Other reports have surfaced suggesting the president is “dependably” engaged less than 12-hours a day. Unfortunately, world events which can affect the security of the United States and the lives of its citizens … demanding a president’s full attention … operate on a 24-hour basis!
Biden’s upcoming one-on-one interview with George Stephanopoulos will not rectify the recent self-inflicted damage to his campaign and reelection hopes. Meantime, the chorus of major donors and concerned Democrats running for the House and Senate will only grow louder unless he quickly withdraws from the race and releases his pledged convention delegates.
The good news for Democrats; their party’s “bench” of possible candidates is deep, most without political or personal baggage potentially useful by the Trump campaign.
However, delaying the crucial decision to step out of the race can only harm his party’s chances of defeating former president Trump and any hopes of winning one or both houses of Congress.
