US Politics Thread | Biden withdraws from Presidential election race

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

It's pretty simple tbh. As Mr Clooney has said Biden stays the Democrats get wiped out. Even with Harris I reckon it's only a 25% she beats Trump. Its going to be a painful place to live over the pond if Trump gets in.

Probably wont be painful over there. Will be in Ukraine though

I know it was, and it was obviously very silly and cynical when it came to Clinton.

The harsh reality is though, Biden clearly has some sort of age related cognitive decline and needs to retire gracefully. For his own good, the good of his party, and arguably for the good of the future of the western world. There's no shame in admitting in your 80s that you're no longer up to having the toughest job on the planet.

Jon Sopel was saying on the News Agents yesterday that only one person in the White House has a doctor going out of their way to visit them 8 times in 8 months.

There is obviously something going on the administration doesn't want to tell the world.

Have you listened to what Pelosi has said? Very clear that she wants him to "make a decision" (her words).

His phone-in to Morning Joe was Trump levels of bat shit crazy. It's extremely worrying - the way it's going Trump is going to win a landslide and control all sides of the government. It doesn't bare thinking about.

The numbers are rising for him to step down.

MSNBC reporting 'sources' saying he's looking at Harris' polling against Trump.

Press conference at 0130 will make or break him. I'm starting to wonder if he's going to say he's stepping down the way the US news networks have cleared their schedules after?

He called Zelensky Putin at the Nato summit.

Don’t need say any more than that, really.

I was just about to post that.

He tried to recover it well.

 

[Don Karleone]

He has to go ffs

She’s hopeless.

But POTUS she will be.

 

[TinFoilHat]

But POTUS she will be.

I'd hope so.

Always thought she'd have made a great SCOTUS.

It's telling the way that some prominent Dems are finally going out there and telling everyone to look up Trump's relationship with Epstein which I believe is trending on social media.

The final straw I think...

 

[cptaidan88]

Gary Cook introduced Uwe Rosler into the Manchester United hall of fame. That was the beginning of the end for him. Think that's the end for Joe, or it really should be.

(There was admittedly a more problematic mishap for Gary after that one)

Joe, please stand down.
