Biden Reportedly Preparing to Quit Campaign, Officials Claim Otherwise

Bill O’Reilly said that reports suggest President Joe Biden will “quit the campaign.”

“Here’s a Biden update from http://BillOReilly.com news headquarters. The decision has been made that the President will quit the campaign. Two reasons: Democrat internal polling says he cannot recover from the debate, and fundraising is drying up,” he wrote on X.

He added that “it’s over for Joe. But the White House doesn’t yet know how or when to make the announcement. Stay close.”

Former Fox News reporter Tucker Carlson shared on social media that Jill Biden is a driving force behind Biden’s campaign.

“From an unusually good source: Obama’s tweet supporting Joe Biden was disingenuous. In private, Obama is telling people Biden can’t win, and he is therefore in favor of an open convention. Obama will not say whom he supports, nor as of yesterday afternoon had he met personally with Biden to deliver the message,” Carlson said. “Relations between the Obamas and the Bidens have never been warm. At times they’ve been hostile. But recently they’ve deteriorated further, mostly due to Jill Biden.”

“In the hours and days after the debate, she kept her husband cloistered away from anyone who might convince him to drop out. Jill Biden is the driving force behind her husband’s reelection campaign, just as she was in 2020, when other members of the family (including Biden’s sister Val) considered him too impaired to run. The next generation of potential Democratic candidates understands all this as an opportunity and they’re circling, particularly Gretchen Whitmer, who is promoting herself aggressively.”

U.S. Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY) said Democrats are discussing whether or not to remove Biden from two different angles.

“One is, do you replace him on the ticket? And the other is do you replace him now as president?” he told Sunday Morning Futures” host Maria Bartiromo.

“Either way, you’re stuck with Kamala Harris, the vice president, who actually, I think, would be worse than Joe Biden,” Barrasso said. “So it’s hard to tell what they’re gonna do. To remove them from the presidency needs the 25th Amendment of the Constitution that involves the president’s own Cabinet pulling the plug there.”

Former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley similarly warned that Democrats may replace Biden with a younger candidate.

In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Haley said, “They [Democrats] are going to be smart about it: they’re going to bring somebody younger, they’re going to bring somebody vibrant, they’re going to bring somebody tested.” She explained that Republicans need to “prepare and get ready for what’s to come because there is no way that there will be a surviving Democratic Party if they allow Joe Biden to continue to be the candidate.”

Biden campaign officials, however, told Axios that Biden will stay in the presidential race.

“They’re all-in, and want him to stay in,” a source said, referring to the Biden family.

Campaign spokesperson Kevin Munoz stated, “The aides who prepped the president have been with him for years, often decades, seeing him through victories and challenges. He maintains strong confidence in them.”
