Many people can’t believe that the Democrats are going to go with the debilitated Joe Biden as their candidate for 2024.
But right now, that’s the apparent plan, although there’s all kinds of speculation about a possible plan B that might include California Gov. Gavin Newsom or Michelle Obama. Newsom certainly has been lining himself up as an available guy for the role should Biden ever step to the side.
I have to hand it to one of the reporters on Tuesday who had the boldness to ask Biden about Newsom being Plan B. The fact that now they’re willing to ask this shows how much trouble Biden is in.
REPORTER: “You’re going to California. Is this about coming up with a Plan B for 2024 — does Gavin need to standby?”
BIDEN: “Are you ready? Well I’m looking for— I’m looking at you. We’re looking at you.”
