Nov 2024

from a remark made by Jon Favreau on a Nov. 8 podcast that naturally went viral in the New-York-Post-o-sphere:

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4981792-pod-save-america-bidens-internal-polling-showed-trump-winning-400-electoral-votes/

Favreau is identified as a former Obama aid who called Biden’s reelection bid a “catastrophic mistake” and helped "lead the call for Biden to step aside as the democratic nominee this summer."

So it's some sketchy backstab intended to achieve I know not what purpose, but only a fool would believe it.
