The article talks briefly about Marianne Williamson, which isn't of any significance but makes me wonder. If the DNC is behind Biden how willing will they be to put him into any Democratic primary debates much less one in the general election? The Progressive wing has to be silently fuming

but damn I find it hard to believe the Democrats don't have a better option than Biden for 2024?

Democratic Party remains united behind Biden as long-shot 2024 challengers emerge.

Don't expect any primary debates between the president and Marianne Williamson.

Though President Joe Biden has yet to announce his anticipated reelection bid, he will now have at least one long shot challenger from within his own party, with self-help author and former political candidate Marianne Williamson formally launching her 2024 campaign on Saturday.

But leading Democrats tell ABC News they don't anticipate a traditional primary playing out between now and the nominating convention next year -- with many aligned behind Biden's expected campaign for a second term, which is thought to be launching in the coming months.

The Democratic National Committee, the campaign arm of the party, has been committed for years to keeping Biden on Pennsylvania Avenue. When asked by Politico in August 2022 about how they might deal with a primary challenge, DNC executive director Sam Cornale put it bluntly: "We're with Biden. Period."

Another pandemic, so Joe doesn't have to leave his basement to campaign.

The only reason they support Biden is because he's easy to manipulate.

He reads what he's told, does as he's told and signs what he's told. I can guarantee there will be no debates. Joe can't even get it right reading from a teleprompter, so you can imagine what a train wreck he would be in a live debate.

Ironically should say that the thought did cross my mind, but certainly, they wouldn't use that psyop so soon after COVID, especially on the heels of the FBI reporting it may have come from a Wuhan lab leak after all.

I mean I know collectively we are gullible as hell, but certainly, they have to keep the conniving more discreetly this time and deploy another method.

I'm thinking a virtual Biden hologram like they did with Tupac

If 'leading democrats' are truly behind Biden they know something the rest of the world doesn't. I can't believe it is possible to pull off the massive amount of cheating it would take for a Biden reelection, but their assuredness of him winning again has me wondering if there's even going to be an election.

The US aggressiveness towards Russia and China is dragging their allies into the fray, making me wonder if the 2030 timeline hasn't been advanced as the only means to keep the world on its socialistic dream.
They can spew all the favorable polls they want of the Biden administration, but I can't believe the majority of Americans are happy with the course our country has been on the past two years. There's just no way to whitewash the facts-or the Biden family's misdeeds that are coming to light. They tried it with Hillary, and the voters weren't fooled.

No matter how paranoid or conspiracy minded you are what the government is actually doing is worse than you imagine


That is because they are afraid of Donald Trump, and they should be.

Most of what is going on in the world would not be happening on his watch, and that is also because those countries are scared of him as well, as they should be.

No need to fill in the rest.

If I'm not mistaken didn't his predecessor refuse to debate?
Hypocrisy much

Yea probably to a huge extent but that wasn't what they sold the progressive wing of the DNC at all, don't you believe they were likely told to play along in 2020, Biden will only last one term, and we will push Harris in 2024 #1 and

#2 even if his approval ranking is rising recently there is still a huge segment that strongly disapproves of Biden.

If we believe the DNC watches the polls we should be able to make some inferences by looking at the same polls they do. I'd imagine where he is polling as the election draws closer is key.

In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:

- President Biden ended the polling week with a daily job approval of 46%.

- After announcing her 2024 presidential campaign, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley leads President Joe Biden in a hypothetical matchup, but badly trails former President Donald Trump among GOP voters

- In communities affected by recent illegal immigration, voters believe the impact on schools, health care and employment has been mainly negative.

- Most voters are willing to commit U.S. naval and air power to defending Taiwan against a Chinese invasion, but draw the line at sending ground troops to fight in such a conflict.

- As the nation celebrates Presidents' Day, a plurality of Americans consider former President Donald Trump both the best and worst of recent leaders.

- On the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion, nearly half of American voters see the war in Ukraine as a stalemate.

- Seven weeks before the Internal Revenue Service deadline, nearly a third of Americans have already filed their income taxes.

- Despite years of progressive activism, a majority of Americans still don’t buy into the “woke” narrative that white people have a monopoly on racism.

- Thirty percent (33%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.

Respectfully and with an arm hugging your shoulder, you are mistaken. Trump loves the debates, he probably loves the debates too much, What he doesn't like the biased structure the debates currently have and he is likely right considering the media's influence in them.

Here's an interesting take from Politico this isn't anything new according to the RNC and even with the split from Trump the RNC believes these fair and unbiased debates aren't really all that

www.politico.com...




The debate commission was a joint creation of top officials at the RNC and the Democratic National Committee. But that was in the 1980s. Today’s populist-oriented GOP is far more mistrustful of traditional political institutions — including independent, nonpartisan organizations like the commission, which exists only to facilitate general election debates and receives no funding from the government or any political party, political action committee or candidate.

“To the average Republican voter, the response to this action will be some variation of, ‘It’s about time,’” said James Dickey, the former chair of the Texas Republican Party.

From the media to universities to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, he said, “We’re seeing institution after institution prove they cannot be trusted. It’s about time one of them paid the penalty for it.”


“It certainly gives the candidate more of an out if they’ve decided debating is to their disadvantage to be able to say, ‘The party rules prevent me from accepting’ the commission’s invitation,” said Trevor Potter, a former chair of the Federal Election Commission who served as general counsel to Republican John McCain’s two presidential campaigns.

The RNC, he said, is attempting to “blow up the structure and therefore change the expectation to ‘will they or won’t they‘” debate.

If there was any possibility that the GOP, following Trump’s loss in 2020, would take a more traditionalist turn in the next election, the RNC’s war on the debate commission will serve as yet another reminder of how expansive the former president’s influence remains — and the stamp he’ll put on 2024 regardless of whether he runs. The debate commission was a joint creation of top officials at the RNC and the Democratic National Committee. But that was in the 1980s. Today’s populist-oriented GOP is far more mistrustful of traditional political institutions — including independent, nonpartisan organizations like the commission, which exists only to facilitate general election debates and receives no funding from the government or any political party, political action committee or candidate.

From the media to universities to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, he said, “We’re seeing institution after institution prove they cannot be trusted. It’s about time one of them paid the penalty for it.”

In its plan to amend party rules to prohibit future nominees from participating in commission-sponsored debates, the RNC is doing the work of an aggrieved former president who complained bitterly about the debate process in 2020, and who is now expected to run again in 2024.

Former Trump Press Secretary says group of ex-officials to meet next week to discuss how to 'stop' him

Yet it’s also reflecting popular sentiment within the party. Republicans have long complained that debates and their media moderators are biased against them — what Saul Anuzis, a former chair of the Michigan Republican Party, called “a very serious frustration among Republicans in general, and many of the candidates in the campaigns, that we don’t necessarily get a fair deal.”

Even if “the RNC did this because they’re upset about the way the commission treated Trump,” said Scott Reed, the Republican strategist who managed Bob Dole’s presidential campaign in 1996, “this issue’s been boiling for cycles now.”

The debate commission, he said, “has outlived its usefulness.”

Jeff Roe, a Republican strategist who managed Texas Sen. Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign in 2016, said that “the days of playing ball with the insider media moguls is over.”

I wonder if these democrats will support Biden or another Democratic candidate, they sound pissed


nypost.com...



Democrats laid into President Biden on Thursday after he announced that he would back federal legislation overriding a Washington, DC, crime bill that has been called soft on criminals.

“The White House f–king this up royally,” an anonymous House Democrat told the Hill.

“F–KING AMATEUR HOUR. HEADS SHOULD ROLL OVER AT THE WHITE HOUSE OVER THIS,” the lawmaker added, noting that the White House had previously expressed its opposition to the resolution nixing the bill, and claimed that it would back the DC City Council.

DC officials also expressed their outrage at the 80-year-old president’s apparent about-face on the matter.

“Today has been a sad day for DC home rule and DC residents’ right to self-governance, which President Biden himself highlighted in his administration’s Statement of Administration Policy issued mere weeks ago,” DC’s non-voting Democratic Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton said in a statement Thursday.

Actually, no. He refused a virtual debate. He wanted a head to head with Biden, without the Left leaning MSM editing or suddenly having "technical difficulties" when Biden started rambling.
Joe insisted on continuing to hide in the basement.

Registered Democrat voters will ultimately "decide" who runs in 2024.

Some State Primaries allow anybody to vote for any Party however.

Just think about that 😎

Biden won the 2020 Primary Delegates hands down remember 😁

Having the Democrats run a candidate that has a sub 30% approval rate ( actual rate, not legacy media polls ) is nothing short of a gift.

But if nothing is done on Capitol Hill about the cheating, we could have the second consecutive illegitimate president easily.

Cmon man, I'm a great candidate. This one time I even signed a bill with my own signature. I don't know what it was for but that's not the point.. the point is this is America, the freest country ever, and you know the thing.

As long as they can keep the illusion going with creepy Joe, they will keep him. It's not like the media is going to call them out on it, and the Republicans are to cowardly to do so.
