Going To Need A Clip of Michael Steele on Ari

Yes, MSNBC-fast fail. Again.

But I just caught Michael Steele going TO TOWN on the notion of Biden stepping down.

He talked about the rank-and-file support ( do not p!!! them off ). He talked about the hard realities of switching out candidates now (money). He harrumphed the seriousness of the polls right now ( it's JULY! IT'S JULY! ).

He told everyone to gird their loins and get to work.

"How do you lose when you haven't run the race?"

I want this to be my new Sleep Sounds.

Disturbing. Happy for it. But, disturbing.

They even got many Democratic voters all mad at their phantom menace ... HOLLYWOOD LIBERAL ELITES.

A certain, now dead, influential radio host, oxycodone addict and creator of a mountain of GOP talking points used to say and condemn the same thing. Day after day.

Now, Democratic voters are saying it. even here.

He said in all his decades of American politics working for both major parties he had never seen the press act they way they have since their frenzy began over Biden's age.
