In a shocking turn of events, it seems that President Joe Biden’s own party is starting to turn against him. According to a recent CNN poll, nearly two-thirds of Democratic voters would prefer someone other than Biden to be their party’s nominee in the upcoming election. Well, can you blame them? Sleepy Joe’s performance so far has been about as inspiring as watching paint dry.
One Democrat who is not afraid to speak out against Biden is Minnesota Rep. Dean Phillips. And boy, did he make some waves recently. Phillips even went so far as to suggest that he might launch a primary challenge against Biden. Now, that’s what I call guts! It’s about time someone in the Democratic Party had the courage to stand up and question Biden’s leadership. After all, we all know that Biden’s cognitive abilities leave much to be desired.
But it seems that Phillips’s bold stance came at a price. He has decided to step down from his House leadership position because his convictions about the 2024 presidential race do not align with the majority of his caucus. Can you believe that? It’s clear that the Democratic Party is suppressing any dissenting voices. They simply can’t handle someone who dares to challenge their beloved Biden.
I have decided to step down from the DPCC & Democratic Caucus leadership. While politics & official work do not mix, it’s clear my convictions about 2024 are incongruent with the position of my colleagues & that was causing discomfort. I was not pressured or forced to resign. 1/2

In a statement, Phillips made it clear that he was not pressured or forced to resign. But who knows what really happened behind closed doors? The Democratic Party has a long history of silencing those who dare to speak out against the liberal agenda. Phillips should be commended for his bravery and integrity.
It’s worth noting that Phillips was not only against Biden’s reelection efforts but also the first Democrat to call for the resignation of New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez after he was hit with bribery charges. Now, that’s what I call standing up for what’s right! It’s refreshing to see a Democrat who isn’t afraid to hold his own party accountable.
All in all, it’s clear that there is growing dissatisfaction among Democratic voters. They recognize the incompetence of President Biden and are desperate for an alternative. But unfortunately for them, the Democratic Party is more interested in maintaining their power than listening to the voices of the people. It’s a sad state of affairs, but it’s no surprise. After all, this is what happens when you put a weak leader in charge. Let’s hope that the American people wake up and choose a true leader in the next election.
