Will He Stay or Will He Go?

Things are not looking rosy for good old regular Joe from Scranton.

More Democrats in power are calling for him to step aside. Is this done out of genuine concern for the country or concern for their own electability? Who knows.

After the debate, I read somewhere that pressure from other politicians is meaningless.

Once the donors start clambering for his ouster, that's when the shit hits the fan.

George Clooney was one of the hosts of a fundraising extravaganza a couple of weeks ago, raising $30 million. Yesterday, the New York Times published his letter claiming its time for Joe to go.

"I love Joe Biden. As a senator. As a vice president and as president. I consider him a friend, and I believe in him. Believe in his character. Believe in his morals. In the last four years, he's won many of the battles he's faced.

But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can. It's devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe "big F-ing deal" Biden of 2010. He wasn't even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate.

We are not going to win in November with this president. "

Powerful stuff that will likely resonate more strongly with the democrat voters than the baseless assurances of competency coming from Nancy Pelosi and others.
