There is an increasing demand for President Joe Biden to relinquish his position and allow another candidate to run as the Democrats’ presidential nominee. However, Biden is countering those calls with a challenge.
Speaking to MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Monday, the president insisted, “The American public is not going to move away from me as the average voter.”
“And, again, I’m here for two reason pal!” he yelled. “One, to rebuild the economy for hard working middle class people… everybody gets a fair chance, number one. Number two, remember all this talk about how I don’t have the Black support? Come on! Give me a break. Come with me! Watch! Watch!”
He added, “I’m getting so frustrated by the elites — I’m not talking about you guys — but by the elites in the party. They know so much more. Any of these guys [who] don’t think I should run, run against me, announce for the presidency, challenge me at the convention!”
