Leftists are starting to worry.
Their 2024 election chances are looking rather grim right now.
President Joe Biden in no way shape or form looks mentally and physically fit to be commander-in-chief.
Yet he’s still the Democratic nominee at the time this article is being written. That has some Democrats ready to jump ship.
Leftist Congressman Gives Up on Biden
Democrat Representative Brad Schneider of Illinois, a prominent figure within the House, is among the latest voices urging President Joe Biden to step aside in the upcoming presidential race.
Serving as the co-chair of the congressional Israel Allies Caucus, Schneider issued a statement emphasizing that Biden “now has the opportunity to secure his legacy and boldly deliver the nation to a new generation of leadership.”
Schneider articulated the gravity of the forthcoming election, underscoring the potential dangers posed by a second Trump administration.
He asserted that Trump’s policies would be “an absolute threat to the very core of our nation,” further warning that a Trump victory would “tear apart our economy, further devastate reproductive freedom, threaten our national security and degrade our vital leadership role in the world order that we helped establish after World War II.”
The congressman framed the election as a critical juncture, stating, “We are faced with a stark choice: be resigned to slog through this election praying we can successfully defend our democracy, or enthusiastically embrace a vibrant vision for our future, building on the extraordinary foundation President Biden has created for our nation over the past four years.” Schneider made his stance clear, “I choose the latter.”
While expressing his admiration for Biden and appreciation for his leadership, Schneider urged the 81-year-old president to “heroically pass the torch to a new generation of leadership to guide us to the future he has enabled and empowered us to pursue.”
He emphasized that Biden has the unique chance to “seal his place in history as one of the greatest leaders our nation, and history, has ever known.”
Schneider concluded his statement with a dire warning: “I fear if he fails to make the right choice, our democracy will hang in the balance.”
This statement from Schneider comes in the midst of a delicate time for Democrats, as Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) had advised her colleagues to hold off on expressing their views about Biden’s future until after the NATO summit.
Despite this, some Democrats, including Rep. Pat Ryan (D-NY), have already voiced their opinions. Ryan stated, “I’d be doing a grave disservice if I said he was the best candidate to serve this fall.”
He added, “For the good of our country, for my two young kids, I’m asking Joe Biden to step aside in the upcoming election and deliver on the promise to be a bridge to a new generation of leaders.”
As the debate within the Democratic Party intensifies, the calls for Biden to step aside reflect a broader conversation about the direction of leadership and the future of the nation.
