In the latest event, former president Barack Obama , was seen on Saturday reaching for Biden’s hand and apparently guiding the 81- year- ancient Commander- in- Chief off the stage at a Los Angeles , fundraiser.  ,
And that came after Biden stood still and blank for a full minute as crowds sang and danced around him at a White House celebration on June 15th on Monday. Finally, Philonise Floyd, brother of the late George Floyd,  , noticed Trump ‘s , concerning wait and wrapped his arm around him to help.
Andrew Bates, a spokesman for the White House, denies that Biden froze in the popular video and calls it a” low false letter” being distributed by the internet.  ,
Americans wo n’t be put off by the Great Joe Biden Replacement Theory, regardless of how much cold water the Biden campaign or Democratic Party pour on this raging fire of speculation.
It’s the idea that somehow, some way the President may become swapped out as the Democratic Party‘s candidate ahead of the 2024 election.
‘ Dropping out would be a great threat. However, there is a level below which continuing to run is a higher risk, polling expert Nate Silver wrote on social media last year. Are we that still? I do n’t know. But it’s more than fair to ask.’
Gold, chairman of the site FiveThirtyEight, noted that Biden’s average approval rating had reached a new small of 37.4 percent. And chief among voter concerns is Biden’s age, which Silver concluded to be,’ an extremely understandable concern, ]as ] Biden looks/acts his age and is a huge outlier to ask for the job until 86]years old ].’
In a cruel attack earlier this month, Atlantic journalist Mark Leibovich publicly criticized President” Ruth Bader Biden.”  ,
Ruth Bader Ginsberg, a former Supreme Court justice, when angered some liberals by refusing to retire while Barack Obama was president, before passing away while Donald Trump was in office, allowing the Republican leader to nominate a traditional justice.
And James Carville, the democratic mastermind behind Bill Clinton’s presidential strategies, said toned- out this quarter that Biden should not have run for are- election.
Then, Biden’s supporters may make a last-ditch effort to silence his detractors inside the party, which could turn out to be his biggest mistake.
One of the earliest political debates in past ( June 27 on CNN), according to Democratic bigwig and Obama campaign expert David Axelrod, was planned by the Biden team to disprove doubters that Joe is not going anywhere.  ,
However, there is a lot of risk in the ploy.
Even though a strong argument efficiency by Biden could sway Democrats ‘ support for him, a major error would only encourage alternative talk.
Mark Penn, a former Clinton advisor and voting expert, suggested that Biden will have one last chance to convince voters that he is qualified to work for him.  ,
‘ They have consciously thrown down the gauntlet for an earlier debate,’ Penn said,’ and I think that’s gonna get the point at which Americans judge: is he prepared for another term or no.’
Now that Daily Mail.com has learned, it will take a united front of the democratic bigwigs to force Joe to throw in the towel if he stumbles in that first face-off with Trump or if his poll numbers keep falling.
Now that Daily Mail.com has learned, it will take a united front of the democratic bigwigs to force Joe to throw in the towel if he stumbles in that first face-off with Trump or if his poll numbers keep falling.
‘ The just people who may force him out would be Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer,’ one Democratic strategist told Daily Mail.com.’ It would have to be the four of them cooperatively.’
And there would be a higher risk involved.
One expert dramatically described the trouble of replacing their candidate as comparable to trying to convert that shattered container ship into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore in May.  ,
That tragic tale came to an abrupt end and resulted in six deaths.
However, insiders from other parties maintain that the candidate swap could succeed if everything was carefully planned and carried out.
Political columnist Joe Klein theorized in a recent newsletter that a “vigorous young candidate — do n’t ask me who” could win over the country with a single convention speech in August.
In Klein’s scenario, the Democratic party savior would deliver an Obama- esque inspirational speech, akin to Barack’s famous 2004 Democratic Convention address, that would quickly bring together disaffected Democrats and moderate independents.
Plus, wrote Klein, the Democratic Party’s prodigious dislike of Trump would unite any disaffected factions behind a new nominee.
However, there’s another potential complication.
A resolute Biden could refuse to step down as the party’s recognized leader and campaign on Election Day, even as the party grows more enraged by his performance.
Biden is fiercely proud of his first- term accomplishments, which he – dubiously – boasts are more significant than other modern president’s triumphs. To be fair, Biden won the election in 2020 over Trump.
Additionally, while Biden respects Pelosi, Clinton, and Schumer, his growing resentment of Obama has become painfully clear.
The former president reportedly tried to stop his vice president from running in 2020 and publicly supported Hillary Clinton in 2016 over Biden in the Democratic primary.
Ironically, both Barack and Michelle Obama appear to have purposefully avoided getting into the Biden White House because of how much people reacted to their public appearances and how they viewed their nominees.
Michelle was not there when Barack Obama made a brief appearance for the Kenyan president at the late May White House state dinner.  ,
Mrs. Obama, who has no close personal feelings for the Bidens, according to one well- connected Democratic source, flat- out ignored the invitation.  ,
The troubling incident at the Democratic fundraiser held on Saturday night at the Peacock Theater only served to highlight the alarming rhetoric surrounding the Biden campaign.
Biden gives the audience a thumbs up in a video before veering off into the crowd.  , Obama, still smiling and waving, takes Biden by the wrist and gives him a gentle tug to walk off stage.
Before the DNC convention in Chicago in the middle of August, the Democratic party hierarchy chose to elect Biden as their nominee online, complete with a “virtual roll call.”
In order to ensure a more controlled process should the party choose to choose a replacement candidate, one of the reasons to go “virtual” is to ensure a more controlled process.
In that situation, senior Democrats would secretly choose the alternative nominee.
According to sources, Vice President Kamala Harris would not be in that position, as some claim that Harris has already had to fend off a bid to take her place on the ticket.
‘ It does n’t just become Kamala. Kamala only becomes the nominee if Biden passes away, according to a witty expert.
Another Democratic political insider claims that Harris failed to serve as vice president, making it nearly impossible for Biden to step down because the party would have to deal with the progressive backlash of replacing the potential first black woman president.
So if not Harris, then who?
Strategists theorize that Democrats would have to hold a public event to symbolically transfer power from Biden to the new candidate, at which Biden, Obama, Clinton, Schumer, and Pelosi would publicly introduce and endorse the anointed nominee.
They would need to persuade Harris to support the substitute, which would be a painful experience for someone who is so fervently guarded against their political future.
And the replacement nominee would also face a risk as a result of the Biden Replacement.
If he or she lost to Trump in November and took up the party banner, their political careers may never come back.
All Democrats may face difficult choices in the near future.
In the 2024 election, Biden has stated that American democracy is on the line.
If his party becomes convinced that he’ll lose, they’ll feel compelled to take drastic – perhaps even unimaginable – action.
