    You heard it reportedly 3rd hand here first, folks.

      Modern Headlines be like “Obama Told Biden to Fuck Right Off”

      And then the article, “There’s a possibility, in the multiverse, that there’s a timeline where perhaps Obama thought about wondering aloud in private to his bestie that mayyybe Biden should think about if he should contemplate whether to set aside a moment to decide if he should spend a minute thinking about debating stepping aside, maybe.”

      Yeah. These articles are getting tiresome. If it’s not right from Obamas mouth as he is endorsing the next person then get fucked inflammatory media

    First of all: bullshit title from a bullshit rag.

    Second: if you can’t quote that person or any sources and pull the whole “SOME MIGHT SAY” card. You’re just Fox News and lying to make headlines.

    Stop posting this shit unless it’s confirmed. Read the damn article.

      Sadly, the title quote is not sourced to anyone.

      Not Obama. Not to “close advisers”. Not to “anonymous barista in a DC Starbucks”.

      Nobody.

    Reminder to tell EVERYONE to not only not listen to this, but to also put down the research pitchforks for a second and go all in Blue, regardless of the nominee. Don’t stay quiet. Worst case you won’t be able to speak safely this time next year.

    If people were going to pressure Biden to step down, I really wish they had done it back in November or December so we could have voted on a replacement in a primary, rather than one being appointed at the convention.

    If this is true, I wonder who his preferred replacement is, if not Kamala.

      I’m hearing rumors, but so far just rumors.

      1. Biden is stepping down as candidate.
      2. A speech is being written right now by a long time speech-writer.
      3. Biden will not endorse Harris, but will instead endorse a brokered convention.

        I wonder if those rumors are from the same people that bring us all of these accurate polling over the past few elections.

              ✅ 1) Biden is stepping down as candidate.
              ✅ 2) A speech is being written right now by a long time speech-writer.
              ✅ 3) Biden will not endorse Harris, but will instead endorse a brokered convention.

              Looks my info was correct.

    To be fair, this is exactly the sign I’m looking for: Obama says step down.

    This article isn’t it, but if it was that’d be that imo.

    The image from the link is scaled down super small on mobile, making it look like Obama is choking Biden.

    Now it’s my headcannon that this is a physical threat by Obama while he chokes Boden in front of a terrified crowd.

    Imagination is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?

    The former president is said to have studied polling data in recent days and concluded that Biden, 81, who served for eight years as his vice-president, has a narrowing chance of beating Donald Trump.

    Well, if he studied the data…

    Just say the man looked at the polls. He’s not some academic of elections studies. Wtf
