WaPo: Obama Tells Democrats ‘Biden Needs to Seriously Consider His Viability’

Obama Biden Stage

Anyone shocked? I’m not.

Former President Barack Obama has supposedly told allies that President Joe Biden cannot win.

Obama thinks the president’s “path to victory has greatly diminished and he thinks the president needs to seriously consider the viability of his candidacy.”

From WaPo:

Obama has only spoken with Biden once since the debate, and he has been clear in his conversations with others that the future of Biden’s candidacy is a decision for the president to make. He has emphasized that his concern is protecting Biden and his legacy, and has pushed back against the idea that he alone can influence Biden’s decision-making process.Behind the scenes, Obama has been deeply engaged in conversations about the future of Biden’s campaign, taking calls from many anxious Democrats, including former House speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), and has shared his views about the president’s challenges, according to people with knowledge of the calls, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.A spokesperson for Obama declined to comment.Obama sees his role as a sounding board and counselor to his former vice president, telling allies that he feels protective of Biden. In these conversations, Obama has said he thinks Biden has been a great president and wants to protect his accomplishments, which could be in jeopardy if Republicans control the White House and both chambers of Congress next year.

You know what bothers me the most? Everyone talks about his chances of winning.

How come no one says Biden should withdraw because of his health?

They only care about beating Trump.
