President Joe Biden may have been able to nudge his fellow Democrats to publicly line up beside him in the past few days, but behind the scenes, the grumbling – and the panic – continues, according to a new report by The New York Times.

Biden has been facing increasing scrutiny since his verbal stumbles during his debate against former President Donald Trump. Recent polling showed 72% of Americans do not believe he has the “mental and cognitive health to be president.” The days following the debate continued to bring more tough headlines for the president, as rumors swirled about internal discontent among Democrats – including several public calls for him to step aside – and worries about him remaining behind in the polls.

Nonetheless, Biden remains adamant that he intends to stay in the race, and said so during a rally in Wisconsin, his interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos that aired last Friday, and a surprise call-in to MSNBC’s Morning Joe Monday morning.

The Times has been an especially scathing voice amidst the media frenzy swirling around the president, expressly calling for Biden to drop out of the race in two columns from the Editorial Board thus far.

Tuesday’s article by congressional correspondent Annie Karni did not buck that trend. Headlined “On Capitol Hill, Democrats Panic About Biden but Do Nothing,” Karni detailed how multiple Democrats had publicly called for the president to swiftly take action “to put to rest the doubts about his candidacy raised by a disastrous debate performance,” including more unscripted events, town halls, and media interviews.

“So far, Mr. Biden has done none of that,” wrote Karni. “And yet, Democrats on Capitol Hill are stifling their doubts and falling in line behind him anyway.”

Doing nothing was “a strategy many of them conceded could be disastrous,” she continued, but the “defiant letter” Biden sent to congressional Democrats, along with his support from Congressional Black Caucus members “vociferously rallying to his side,” seems to have “successfully paralyzed the entire party into a state of uncertainty and inaction.”

Democrats in “vulnerable” districts were “panicking,” wrote Karni, as they were now left with few options besides “hoping” for Biden to get himself into more trouble:

The discrepancy between Democrats’ private views that “Biden himself was the problem” and public comments supporting him staying in the race led Karni to compare them to their MAGA Republican foes: “Their unwillingness to say so was reminiscent of how congressional Republicans behaved during Mr. Trump’s presidency, when they would criticize and mock him privately but profess total fealty in public — or simply avert their gaze from his latest incendiary missive.”
Hang in there, Biden. We absolutely want you to be on the ballot against Trump.
 
Speaking of the New York Times …

New York Times editorial board declares Trump ‘unfit to lead’
“A once great political party now serves the interests of one man, a man as demonstrably unsuited for the office of president as any to run in the long history of the republic, a man whose values, temperament, ideas and language are directly opposed to so much of what has made this country great.”
 
He just made one with his speech to the NATO gathering and slurring out an untoward comment about the services of NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg’s wife. Joe Biden's brain is a can of alphabet soup. He's absolutely useless to the country.
 
he would...as long as you didn't have to live in the United States and suffer under his corrupt regime.
I don't live there anymore, but I still consider it my civic duty to do my share to keep him from ever coming anywhere near the White House again.
 
Suffer? Please explain what could possibly cause you to suffer? If who is president causes you to suffer you must be an extremely weak individual. :)

well that and all the violent crime happening around me as i step over discarded needles, bodies and crack pipes to get to work....

Not sure what that has to do with the White House. Biden should get out there and arrest them. :)
