Ritchie Torres Instagram – Regardless of where one stands on the question of President Biden’s political future, the intra-party mixed messaging strikes me as deeply self-destructive.
Those publicly calling on President Biden to withdraw should ask themselves a simple question: what if the President becomes the Democratic nominee?
The drip, drip, drip of public statements of no confidence only serve to weaken a President who has been weakened not only by the debate but also by the debate about the debate.
Weakening a weakened nominee seems like a losing strategy for a presidential election. The piling-on is not so much solving a problem as much as it is creating and compounding one.
The process by which we decide how to move forward matters as much as the decision itself. | Posted on 08/Jul/2024 21:22:06
