In an interview with CNN Newsroom on Sunday, former South Carolina lawmaker and current CNN analyst Bakari Sellers said his phone has been “blowing up” with concerned Democrats who are “pissed off” that President Biden was forced out of the 2024 race by Democratic leadership.
“My phone is blowing up with people who are pissed off and the reason they‘re pissed off, is because they feel like people from on high pushed Joe Biden out the door,” he said.
“A text that I just got from a friend was like, ‘if they pushed Joe Biden out the door. what are they going to do with Kamala Harris?’ They will probably try to push her too. There‘s a great deal of fear out there and the people who‘ve done the damage, the Nancy Pelosis, the Chuck Schumers those ’elders’ in leadership. It would behoove us all if they came out and wrap their arms around Kamala Harris sooner rather than later.”
He added, “And probably save those celebratory mimosas for another day…”
From Fox News:
Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer reportedly told Biden in a “blunt one-on-one conversation” last week it would be best if he “bowed out of the race,” according to an ABC report on X.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., reportedly told President Biden in a phone call that polls are showing he cannot defeat former President Trump in November and that him staying in the race could destroy Democrats’ chances of taking the House in November.
Biden offered his “full support and endorsement” for Vice President Kamala Harris to take over as the party’s presidential nominee. The president’s endorsement is likely to dissuade any serious completion from other Democrats who may have mulled a bid for the presidential nomination and could clear a path for the vice president to succeed Biden as the party’s nominee.
According to numerous reports, Kamala Harris is frantically attempting to drum up support to lockdown the presidential nomination and challenge Donald Trump in November — but it’s not a lock.
