Update: Biden's Family of Grifters, Power-Trippers, Coke-Heads and Party Whores Has Told Him to Remain In the Race -- But Fire His Advisors

Let it never be said that Joey Choo-Choo is a quitter!

From CNN, the far-right MAGA organization that rigged the debate against Biden.

Joe Biden's family on Sunday encouraged the president to stay in the 2024 race and privately discussed whether top aides should be fired on the heels of Biden's stunningly poor debate performance, which has thrown his campaign into turmoil.
Biden's family, including first lady Jill Biden, son Hunter Biden and their grandchildren, convened at Camp David for a previously scheduled get-together and implored the president to keep fighting in his bid for reelection, Biden advisers told CNN. One adviser described the family members as having offered their "unequivocal support."
The family -- clearly frustrated with the team that prepared President Biden ahead of his alarming debate with former President Donald Trump -- discussed whether any of Biden's top advisers should be fired and whether campaign staffing changes should be made, one adviser said.

Biden, however, is known for being loyal to and protective of his close advisers, and does not like to fire aides. As of Sunday, it did not appear that any major staffing changes were looming.
The admiration and support that Biden's family showed the president Sunday mirrored the first lady's effusive public praise for her husband in recent days. She told Vogue on Sunday that the family will "not let those 90 minutes define the four years he's been president" and vowed to "continue the fight."

Yes, I forgot to mention: While that article was clearly a puff-piece written a while ago, they did add an update to it, with Evita Biden affirming that she was going to ride this old corpse until the legs and arms fall off.

Editor's Note: The debate on June 27 spurred a discussion about whether President Joe Biden should remain the Democratic nominee. Dr. Jill Biden, the first lady and Vogue's August cover subject, has fiercely defended her husband and stood by him. Reached by phone on June 30 at Camp David, where the Biden family had gathered for the weekend, she told Vogue that they "will not let those 90 minutes define the four years he's been president. We will continue to fight." President Biden, she added, "will always do what's best for the country." Whatever happens in the weeks and months between now and November, it is Dr. Biden who will remain the president's closest confidant and advocate.

Back to MAGA Trumper organization CNN:

Biden is eagerly collecting data -- anecdotal evidence and public polling -- but is awaiting a broader round of Democratic campaign polling and research this week, advisers said, bracing for expected slippage of support across battleground states.

Yeah, that's the problem. If he slips by 3-4 points, after already being behind by 4, the race is essentially over and he'll drop out.

So I'm in the weird position of rooting for a Rally Around the Vegetable effect.

Advisers preemptively blamed tough media coverage for any downfall, rather than Biden's own performance.

It's dangerous to suggest the media is lying to the public. It puts their very lives in danger. Its corrosive to our Shared National Purpose as well as to the Health of Our Precious Democracy.

Unless a Democrat is making the charge, naturally.

I'm genuinely surprised by this news. I have spent two years believing, firmly, that he will not be the candidate in November. I sure hope he stays in.

If he can resist the pressure to drop out here...

The liberal polling group Morning Consult has Trump ahead by only one, post-debate.

I don't believe that -- but I'd like the Democrats to believe it.

Political Polls
@Politics_Polls
2024 National GE:
Donald Trump 44% (+1)
Joe Biden 43%
.@MorningConsult, 10,679 RV, 6/28-30
https://pro.morningconsult.com/trackers/2024-

Another poll finds a two-point gain for Trump, which sounds plausible, given how hardened people already are in their positions:

Political Polls
@Politics_Polls
National @DataProgress
Post-Debate Poll (Shift since 3/29):
Trump 48% (+2)
Biden 45% (-2)
1,011 LV, 6/28

Again, we'd ideally like to see Trump gain some ground -- but not too much ground. At least not until October.

The NY Post finds a bigger Trump bump:

Political Polls
@Politics_Polls
National @Leger360/@nypost Post-Debate Poll (Shift since 6/24):
Trump 45% (+4)
Biden 38% (-5)
841 LV, 6/27-28

This may be causing the Democrats hesitation and consternation about replacing Biden: Other Democrats don't do better than Biden in a race:

Political Polls
@Politics_Poll
National @DataProgress Post-Debate Poll:
Trump 48% (+3)
Biden 45%
Trump 48% (+3)
Harris 45%
Trump 47% (+3)
Newsom 44%

Other candidates fare no better:

This may indicate -- I hope -- that the public isn't just against Biden the man, but the entire ruinous Democrat policy constellation.

Here's another big problem: the C***s***er Factor.

Almost 40% of Democrats say Kamala should be the replacement, and she leads all other comers:

Political Polls
@Politics_Polls
If Joe Biden decides to drop out, and the Democratic Party holds a convention among party delegates to pick a replacement, who do you think they should pick as the Democratic nominee for U.S. president?
Harris 39%
Newsom 18%
Buttigieg 10%
Booker 7%
Whitmer 6%
Pritzker 2%
Klobuchar 2%
Shapiro 2%

SurveyUSA finds Kamala at 43% support in the Replacement Theory.

Political Polls
@Politics_Polls
If Joe Biden is replaced as the Democratic candidate for President, which Democrat should replace him?
Harris 43%
Newsom 16%
Buttigieg 8%
Whitmer 7%
Shapiro 4%
Moore 2%
.@surveyusa, 879 Likely Democratic Voters, 6/28

A big reason Democrats may find them stuck with Biden is that the party is divided between the left and far left, and for now, with Biden in the presidency, a shaky truce is holding. But if Biden goes, the left and far left will fight for supremacy in the party. (PS, the far left already won that battle, but the left hasn't conceded the fight, yet.)

One betting market is confident of a Trump win, and a win for the GOP in the Senate, too:

olitical Polls
@Politics_Polls
.@Polymarket
- Balance of Power:
Presidency:
Republicans 62% (+24)
Democrats 38%
.
Senate:
Republicans 76% (+52)
Democrats 24%
.
House:
Republicans 51% (+2)
Democrats 49%

Note that last entry -- the percentage chance for Republicans to sweep Presidency, Senate, and House is 49%. The Democrats only have a 17% chance of this trick. I think the number there should be zero. All three? Nah.

You may have heard this news: Trump has taken a tiny 1 point within-the-margin lead... in ultra-blue New Jersey, says coefficient polling:

The problem isn’t just that Biden is old. The problem is he’s insane. Only a madman would not consider a nuclear holocaust/war an existential threat, saying “the ONLY existential threat to humanity is climate change.” And this insane person has the power to launch a nuclear weapon. How could we even consider it would be safe to reelect this man?

In 1919, President Woodrow Wilson was incapacitated by a stroke. Immediately thereafter, his wife Edith took control.

Edith made decisions on his behalf and controlled access to her husband, thus effectively turning herself into de facto president, without anyone realizing.

The entire episode was covered up.

Does this sound familiar?

It's in the family's best interest to fire his advisors who set him up for this failure, knowing he can't handle 90 minutes of ANYTHING after 4 pm.

In order for Democrats to replace Biden now, they have to admit he is unfit.

Once you do that, you must also remove him from office.

Once you do that, Kamala is president.

Once that happens, Kamala is also the nominee.

Once that happens, Trump is elected.

But unfit to run means unfit to lead.

There was a mechanism for replacing Biden.

It was the primary.

Everyone agreed to step aside except RFK, and they kicked him out of the party.

19 So it's not FJB's deteriorating mental and physical capacity that's the problem.

Nor is it the economic and political ruin the Dem policies have inflicted on this country.

Nope. It's his advisors that are the issue. They didn't set him up for success just like they didn't set up Kamala for success.

Flubbed debate turns into $27M bonanza for Biden-Harris campaign | Fox News

The campaign previously said the single best hour of fundraising came immediately after Biden's debate against Trump

The re-election campaign for President Biden says it has raised a whopping $27 million since his rocky debate performance against former President Trump.
From the day of the debate through Friday evening, the Biden-Harris campaign told Fox News that it had raised $27 million.

The updated figure comes after the campaign said on Friday that it raised $14 million in "a sign of strength of our grassroots support" on debate day and the morning after.

The campaign also noted Friday that 11 p.m. to 12 p.m. on Thursday – the first hour after the debate – was the single best hour of fundraising since the campaign's launch in April 2023.

67 I think a big factor is that Obama controls Biden completely.

Of course the Biden "family" does not want to drop out, but I think the Obama group also wants him in if he can since they will not be able to control any of the other candidates so thoroughly. He wants a fourth term.

If Harris of Newsom replace Biden and win, power will shift to the Pelosi "family" and the West Coast.

From an unusually good source: Obama’s tweet supporting Joe Biden was disingenuous. In private, Obama is telling people Biden can’t win, and he is therefore in favor of an open convention. ...Jill Biden is the driving force behind her husband’s reelection campaign, just as she was in 2020, when other members of the family (including Biden’s sister Val) considered him too impaired to run. The next generation of potential Democratic candidates understands all this as an opportunity and they’re circling, particularly Gretchen Whitmer, who is promoting herself aggressively.

Michelle Pfeiffer is an ageless being and cannot age or deteriorate. There is no comparing one stage to another because they are all one stage. Her electoral might is the same in 1992 as it is in 1995 and cannot falter, deteriorate, or degrade.

178 a new Morning Consult poll reveals that Biden’s support actually improved after the debate. When the survey asked respondents to choose between Biden and former President Trump, 45% chose the President and 44% chose Trump. The last poll was a tie.

Chris Hayes, host at MSNBC, which has been in mourning since the debate, tweeted: “shrug emoji no one knows anything ...”

The poll shows “President Joe Biden has lost no immediate ground to Trump,” according to Morning Consult pollsters. Biden received unconditional support from his wife, Jill: “There is no one that I would rather have sitting in the Oval Office right now than my husband,” she said.

Gov. Gavin Newsome, who is one of those pitched as a possible replacement for Biden, said he remained steadfastly behind the President: “I would never turn my back on President Biden. I don’t know a Democrat in my party that would do so. And especially after tonight, we have his back,” Newsom said.

“We run, not the 90-yard dash. We are all in. We’re going to double down in the next few months. We’re going to win this election.”

Clyburn did nothing.

Clyburn took credit for Biden's win in SC by saying his voice convinced everyone to vote for Biden.

The problem is that NH had increasingly become an outlier in terms of results, and Iowa has long been a joke in terms of results.

It was obvious from before the primary that Biden had the best chance of anyone, and the relatively clean election machinery of SC ensured that Bernie (bc NE radical) didn't get a win and also ensured that the others couldn't win because they were just as radical but didn't have the rockstar status like Bernie did to the younger Democrat partisans.

At risk - The past 12 years of Iran Hauk twau by State. Possibility of blaming Obama/Biden for some of the problems they created. His role as elder statesman of the Party.

221 From an unusually good source: Obama’s tweet supporting Joe Biden was disingenuous. In private, Obama is telling people Biden can’t win, and he is therefore in favor of an open convention. ...Jill Biden is the driving force behind her husband’s reelection campaign, just as she was in 2020, when other members of the family (including Biden’s sister Val) considered him too impaired to run. The next generation of potential Democratic candidates understands all this as an opportunity and they’re circling, particularly Gretchen Whitmer, who is promoting herself aggressively.

My concern is those people who, when asked what policies they support, would name mostly those promoted by Trump and would denounce mostly those promoted by Biden. But Trump is "icky" and therefore they ascribe their preferred policies to Biden in spite of reality. Since Biden is the "good guy" then obviously (to them) he must be the one who promotes the good policies.

They are impervious to reason. How many of these willfully blind people are there? Will they vote D or stay home?

they had this amazing grift going on, didn't have to do much vice-presidentin' ... all good stuff

when he got tapped for Barry's Third Term he was like, cool it will be like before. they basically are treating like a "slightly moreso" Veep stint. and the feds love this! they were super happy about it and ignored the continuing grift.

now however. the cat is out of the bag. BigFed can't hide behind Joetato for much longer. what to do?

you can't make them leave, they are grifters. they are happy with things as they are. they have zero shame. and no one cares if Bob goes to prison (which he won't).

315 They can't dis Kamala with another candidate. If they give her a few month as President she will at least be incumbent.

317 OTOH, Jen Psaki (!) blames Brandon.

What is the world coming to.

In other news, it's Orban's turn at the top of the EU.

318 I don't think they need to lo-jack Brandon, or anything like that. I figure the US taxpayers can afford some giant baby gates, if they can afford to pay for Baltimore.

Oh, I want to see him strap on that Golf Bag and try to walk out 18 holes.

Watching him die on the 1st Fairway would be poetry.

320 Or Joe could stay in and have a massive comeback after the next debate.

Posted by: fd at July 01, 2024 05:27 PM (vFG9F)

321 Donald Jr. should buy a great big billboard in DC--maybe a spot with notably crappy traffic so that drivers have to stare it for 10+ minutes every damn day--with a big picture with Joe looking powerful and in charge (i.e. something MSNBC Photoshopped and filtered the f*ck out of it). And the text should say "Stay the course! You're the President of the United States. Man up."

Challenge that bitter old fossil, dare him to hold on to his candidacy. He may not remember how to tie his shoes, but he still understands spite.

The Carnahans are to MO now what the Wooly Mammoths are to the vast plains of Mongolia. Haven't seen 'em around in a long time.

Indeed, the number of DEM statewide elected officials in MO today is exactly equal to the number of Oscars won by Pee Wee Herman.

Oof. I wonder how Trumps debate dig at joe that he was "a bad Palestinian because he was weak" is going to go over.

Posted by: WisRich at July 01, 2024 05:27 PM (G0vdT)

326 I just saw at Hot Air* that the DNC is talking of moving the nomination to mid-July (!) to ensure Brandon gets on all ballots.

329 The family -- clearly frustrated with the team that prepared President Biden ahead of his alarming debate with former President Donald Trump -- discussed whether any of Biden's top advisers should be fired and whether campaign staffing changes should be made, one adviser said.

333 287 Emmie, I think that is why the debate was just as important for Trump as for Biden. He did not come off as icky. He was cool and calm. He explained things well. There was solid contrast especially when Biden went after him on a personal level. Biden forgetting the soldiers killed in the Afghanistan withdrawal was significant. Made him seem callous.
Except for the crazies like Joy Reid and Whoopi maybe people are seeing a different Trump.
Posted by: Sharon(willow's apprentice) at July 01, 2024 05:18 PM (t/2Uw)

Sharon, I hope you are right. But these people think Trump is icky not because of anything about Trump but because they have been told he's icky. Some people are seriously swayed by what they believe is the opinion of their peers. They don't want to have anyone raise eyebrows at them.

338 The smart play for these morose goons would be to step aside, let Trump win in a walk, and hem him up like last time.

But I've given up figuring them for smart. They'll just blunder into whatever, I guess.

342 Was it Clyburn that claimed tea party people spit on him during the obamacare fiasco? When Pelosi, with the giant gavel and someone else deliberately crossed the street instead of the underground to get to the house floor. The say it don't spray it fake spitting incident.

Someone, maybe Breitbart or another conservative offered a big cash reward to whoever could prove this with video evidence and no one came forward even though everyone around them had their phones out? Can't remember who.

343 Whenever I've seen Brandon appear to be lucid, I've wondered how he managed to do so. How the heck do you combat pudding-brain with drugs?

Posted by: Emmie at July 01, 2024 05:37 PM (Sf2cq)

344 I'm putting this on the doctors. They surely did a couple of practice runs for an evening performance in the week of prep, and got him titrated exactly right for those.

You've got to wonder if they just gave him a placebo for the debate as a way of getting him out.

346 I can see a campaign where it’s implied Biden steps down in early 2025 and Kumala takes over. The least messy way to remove Biden without removing him.

Any course of action resulting in a Kamala Harris presidency is the messiest course of all. That ditzy, vicious bitch is a nightmare waiting to happen.

347 They should play a round of golf together for a "debate". Let them take turns driving the cart.

Golf is a good sport, one that can be done well into the twilight years. It's as good a cognitive test as any.

349 It’s pretty darn bold of Biden to keep referring to himself as a beacon of truth. Just goes to show his scruples are less than 0.

Posted by: Piper at July 01, 2024 06:19 PM (p4NUW)

350 There is literally no upside for Joe & Jill Biden in exiting the race.

Joe knows that without the presidency the powers that be in the Dem party will immediately chaperone him into a corner, serve him jello, and put on Matlock. No one will every care about him again. He's not about to willingly relinquish his claim on power. - That is, after all, all he is. Otherwise, he's apparently soulless.

And Jill Biden is the biggest nobody to ever be first lady. She's going to milk this puppy for all it's worth.

What on earth do they have to gain by getting out?

Posted by: Bach in Black at July 02, 2024 03:16 AM (+oqUV)

351 Also, the 25th amendment option is not as robust as people have been led to believe.

Ol' Joe would have to be basically non-responsive (i.e., "incapacitated) for this to be a feasible option.

So, unless he chooses to bow out (which seems extremely unlikely - because, as mentioned, there's zero upside to it): They. Are. Stuck. With. Brandon.
