That Bad Eartha Posted July 14 Posted July 14 6 minutes ago, Communion said: I'm more frustrated that I already know there's comms meetings happening in Biden HQ over how to let this dominate the news cycle until the convention in the hopes of smothering talks of him needing to drop out, ignorantly not realizing such will only further radicalize Trump's supporters.ย Yeah this is more of my expectation that rather than galvanizing him to drop out, this is just going to completely smother all of the talks of replacing him. That will be out of the news and next week is a recess anyways so anyone who had been waiting to call on him to drop out until after NATO ended now probably won't out of some call from unity either fro Biden's camp or the party apparatus. I wouldn't even be shocked if by the end of the week Nancy stops her waffling and moves back to backing him openly and that fully stamping out further calls for him to drop out.ย ย Feels like the only hope now for him to step aside comes down to either some truly disastrous undeniable internal polling comes or someone gets through to Jill's dumb*ss 1
wastedpotential Posted July 14 Posted July 14 (edited) Yeah, to my eyes this killed the building momentum people were hoping would push Biden out. For the next week the press cycle will be literally just this and the RNC, during which time the Biden inner circle will shame anyone who tries to bring it up again, and by next week there will be some other story to focus on (my money is that Israel will pick that moment to start its invasion of Lebanon). Until Biden makes another debate level gaffe again, he's a lot more secure in his position than he was 2 hours ago.ย Edited July 14 by wastedpotential

Biden is a candidate that is already down in polls in critical swing states and he just had to pull his ads. The people trying to get him out will move more quietly but these conversations will still be held as this dominates the news/the RNC. 2
monologueNacafe Posted July 14 Posted July 14 This was like the worst thing that could happen right now ย

True, the private discussions won't stop, but they haven't had an effect on anything thusfar and I'm doubtful that will change when seemingly the only way for Biden to admit defeat was a scenario where a large enough number of influential enough Democrats publicly spoke out. Every week that can be wasted (for lack of a better word) in the press between now and the DNC next month is a week where Biden has time to shore up his support internally.ย

Keeping WI/MI/PA/NE-02. And of course the Clinton states (Maine, NH, CO, VA) ย They know NC and NV are no longer possible and AZ seems out of the question as well. ย NYT had an article today or yesterday that detailed it well. Every scenario except that one results in a Trump win. If that ONE scenario is out of reach after this week then he's gotta go. 2

I'm with you on that front (because WI/MI/PA aren't looking... great), but it seems like the gap between the inner circle and 98% of the campaign staff is quite wide at this point. Jill and Hunter are seemingly doing everything in their power to keep Joe from learning (or comprehending) that exact piece of information.ย 1

nostalgic Posted July 14 Posted July 14 (edited) @Vermillionย thanks for all you do in this thread to keep everyone informed. I don't use Twitter anymore so it's nice to have these curated updates hereย Edited July 14 by nostalgic 6 2
GraceRandolph Posted July 14 Posted July 14 The fact that the Biden campaigns only strategy was attacking Trumpโฆ we are so ******. This is why you need a strong affirmative message about your candidate. It's seriously time for Biden to drop out for a more competent candidate who can actually communicate.ย 2
