The Biden campaign has hit yet another bump in the road, as Joe Biden himself hinted at a possible escape route from a race many Democrats are desperate for him to abandon. Following his dismal performance against Donald Trump in June, Democrats have realized their anointed one might not be so anointed after all, causing a flurry of whispers and outright demands for his withdrawal.
Amidst calls from within his own party, Biden seems as stubborn as ever, claiming it would take divine intervention to push him out of the race. But in a twist, during an interview with Ed Gordon of BET News, Biden mentioned he might reconsider his campaign if doctors discovered any new medical issues. Apparently, the man who has been paraded as the picture of health has now dangled the possibility of a health-related exit strategy.
Biden admitted to making a “serious mistake” in the debate against Trump, though one has to wonder which mistake he’s referring to out of the myriad blunders of that night. He clings to the notion that as long as doctors give him a thumbs-up, he’s game to continue his bid for re-election, because who needs to listen to the increasing number of Democrats jumping ship?
In Biden’s alternate reality, he still fancies himself as the great unifier, the “transitional candidate” ready to pass the torch to new leaders. But, shockingly, he “didn’t anticipate things getting so divided.” One could argue that’s been his administration’s hallmark. Yet, in a stroke of Bidenesque wisdom, he suggests that with age comes wisdom, overlooking the public’s increasing concern over his mental and physical fitness.

Faced with a crumbling castle, Democrats are not sitting idly by. Representative Adam Schiff, once preoccupied with toppling Trump, now wants Biden to throw in the towel. He’s vocally worried that a second term for Trump would threaten the foundation of democracy itself and doubts Biden can beat Trump in the upcoming election. Schiff and others urge Biden to protect his so-called legacy by stepping down and allowing another Democrat to take on Trump.
Meanwhile, Democratic donor wallets are closing tighter than Fort Knox. Major donors have switched off their cash flow, explicitly stating their support hinges on Biden stepping aside. Mega-donor Tom Strickland is busy rallying fellow donors to cut Biden off entirely, emphasizing a simple, executor-like message: back Biden and lose our support.
It’s a carnival of chaos within the Democratic ranks as Biden stubbornly refuses to heed the desperate pleas of his once loyal supporters, leaving his campaign teetering on the brink.
