Liberal comedian and television show host Bill Maher has expressed his views on the possibility of Democrats replacing Joe Biden as their nominee, stating, “The question isn’t if, it’s who.”
Maher predicts that Biden will withdraw from the race as early as August 9, marking the 50th anniversary of President Richard Nixon’s resignation.
Maher shared his thoughts on the issue during Friday’s episode of his show “Real Time with Bill Maher.”
“The one thing I know for sure is this: The question isn’t if, it’s who, because he is not going to be the Democrats’ candidate for president,” Maher said.
He continued, “The one thing I know for sure about America is this: it’s run by Mean Girls—mean girls in the press, in politics, and in life. When they smell blood in the water, the lust to finish off a vulnerable person will never be denied.”
Maher reiterated his belief that Biden will not be the Democratic presidential candidate in 2024, saying, “Biden is toast. The walls will keep crumbling, and my pick in the office pool for when he gives it up is August 9.”
The issue with Biden isn’t if, it’s who. Who will replace him because he will not be the Democrats’ presidential candidate in 2024.
Since Biden’s poor debate performance late last month, there have been continuous calls for him to step aside in the 2024 presidential race, particularly from within his own party.
Despite the speculation, Biden has insisted that he will not be withdrawing from the race.
