Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsNYTimes apparently can't find even one Dem Convention Delegate wanting to replace Biden.
This short article gets a sentence or two from about 10 Delegates all in support of Biden. Headlines the Story "These Obscure Democrats Could Soon become Kingmakers"!
I don't think the media's drumming out Biden is going anywhere.
There is this: Biden has displaced Trump as the main headline subject for July so far. If the adage "All press attention is good, no matter the story" has any validity, we will see Biden gaining in this horse race talk soon.

Has story out this am with title saying interview revealed a president in denial.
I burst out laughing. Like I would trust the wsj to make such a judgment. These people are so far over the top.

I don't know how true that is, but the rumors have been there.

I hope so. The Putin Troll work is strong on this issue. They'll find another frenzy to work on as we get closer to the election though.
Stay the course folks and we will win in November.

I wonder how many of these journalists will be patting themselves on the back in a few weeks taking credit for saving Biden's candidacy with their coverage. *
*Actually it should be FROM their coverage.

Project 2025 is a terrorist manifesto for overthrowing our Democracy. These traitors should be investigated and charged as such.

(53,215 posts)people who don't want Biden to come up with their ticket, then put it on the floor of the convention with the understanding whoever gets the most votes gets 100% support from all Democrats. No badmouthing. No tanking the race. Just support. This whole thing is becoming downright terrifying because Democrats are even more scattered than usual and MSM is eating it up. Trump doesn't need to campaign as long as we keep this shit up. I feel as if I'm on a sinking ship and we're drilling more holes in the bottom of it.

(2,980 posts)convention floor.... and that will be me! She's still ridin' with Biden, and also realizes he already has a great backup (which is what veeps are for). Before the pile-on after the debate, we were mainly worried about protestors outside the convention, not any drama within. I think there are just a few uncommitted (to Biden) delegates, so hopefully that will preclude the in-fighting the media (and Republicans) are so intent on stoking.
