A fuming President Joe Biden called into MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” on Monday to declare that he will not withdraw his bid for a second term, despite growing calls for him to step down.
Trump is “a liar,” Biden said. “And he hasn’t done a damn thing since the debate. He's been riding around a golf cart for 10 days down in Mar-a-Lago with his wealthy friends.”
“I’m getting so frustrated by the elites in the party,” he added. “I don’t care what the millionaires think.”
In a fighting statement after days of bleeding support, Biden threw down the gauntlet to Democrats calling for him to quit. “If any of these guys don’t think I should run, run against me. Go ahead. Announce for president. Challenge me at the convention,” he said.

This is what he just did -
When I had just gotten out of college and was interviewing for chem jobs, I signed up to be a sub for the Philly schools to obviously get some $$$ for the greenie meanies (student loans) that would be coming in. Of course most of the schools needing subs were junior and senior highs and in the junior highs, the only way to get the attention (and respect of the kids) was to make strategic use of a yardstick smacked on a desk. Respect was gained after that. Biden needs to get these junior-high school wusses back in line and he knows what to do.

Joe is the best politician and person for the job. Like he said, challenge him at the convention or STFU.
We have work to do—Democrats rescuing small “d” democrats.
This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no fooling around.
