Genocide Joe, it's time to go (Covid-19)


The exit's that way, Joe. Follow Dr. Jill B.
Nearly from the moment Pres. Joe Biden walked off the Atlanta debate stage three weeks ago, Senator Peter Welch of Vermont has been trying — first gently, then much more directly — to get him to end his reelection bid. He now believes that effort is working.

“I think it’s happening,” he told me [MSN] by phone this morning. More than 20 House Democrats have publicly pushed Biden to withdraw. For now, Welch is the only senator calling for him to step aside. But the party is rapidly turning against Biden.

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) yesterday paused plans to nominate him early by virtual roll call, and last night reports emerged that a trio of party leaders — Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi — each told Biden in separate private conversations that his nomination would jeopardize the Democrats’ chances to beat Trump this fall.

Former Pres. Barack Obama, perhaps Biden’s most helpful ally to this point, has reportedly told Democrats that Biden needs to reconsider his candidacy.

Shortly before I spoke with Welch this morning, a House Democrat told me, on condition of anonymity, that party leaders were encouraging members to go public with their concerns about Biden’s viability. More
Biden says he would drop out of 2024 race if diagnosed with medical condition

(Axios) Pres. Biden said in a new interview that he would consider dropping out of the 2024 presidential race IF a doctor diagnosed him with a "medical condition." [Is Covid-19 medical enough?]

Why it matters: Biden is battling a growing chorus of Democratic lawmakers [and voters] calling on him to step aside after his disastrous debate performance last month sparked renewed worries about his age and [mental] fitness for office.

A pre-taped interview with BET [Black Entertainment TV] News is the latest in a series of [horrible] media appearances the president has made since the debate to try [salvage his career] and assuage concerns about his mental acuity [and evident decline].

The interview will air tonight at 10:00 pm (ET) on BET. The cable network released excepts in advance of the broadcast.

The latest: Hours after the excerpt from the interview was released, the White House confirmed that Biden tested positive for COVID and was experiencing mild symptoms.

The big picture: Asked what would make him re-evaluate his reelection campaign, Biden said he would do so "if I had some medical condition that emerged," according to an excerpt released by the network. 

But Jill ordered me to stay! I have to stay!!
"If doctors came to me and said, you got this problem [senile dementia] and that problem [a pandemic disease]," he added.

Biden also acknowledged that he had run for the presidency as a "transitional candidate" and that he had expected to "pass it on to somebody else [like his handpicked hottie Kamala, whom he thought would be easier to handle than Tulsi]."

Who's older, Jagger or Joe? - One year difference
However, he said he hadn't expected how divided the U.S. would become. "There's more to do and I'm reluctant to walk away from that," he said.

State of play: Since the June debate, Biden has repeatedly insisted he is staying in the race and denied that top Democrats and average voters want him out of the race [when they so obviously do]. More
