The Left's efforts to push a fragile Joe Biden out of the presidential race are probably hitting an apex around now, as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer reportedly showed up at the old man's house to "Forcefully" ask him to pack it up.
Why would any legitimate presidential prospect-outside of Vice President Kamala Harris-consider jumping into the unprecedented chaos of 2024? Right now, Govs. Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan or Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, or whoever, can sit back for the next four years, bolster his or her credentials governing purple states, build national profiles, reach out to key constituencies, and put together organizations in important states.
For another thing, one would need to leapfrog over the very first black/Asian-American/woman vice president in history for the nomination.
Is any white Democrat with a bright political future going to rely on a flash anarchic convention to sideline Harris? I've never met the woman, but the vice president doesn't seem to have a temperament that would take kindly to being shoved out of the picture.
If Democrats lose the White House this year, the Left's revisionist history is going to blame the debate debacle for sinking Biden's reelection efforts.
The day the media's gaslighting of the president's decline was exposed, it changed the dynamics of the race.
Biden almost certainly pushed for an early debate to reset the race.
