Amid mounting calls for President Joe Biden to end his re-election bid, his allies are pushing back, accusing party elites of disenfranchising voters. Key Democratic constituencies, including Black clergy members, Latino community leaders, and progressive activists, are voicing support for Biden, arguing that attempts to force him out undermine democracy.
A top Biden surrogate highlighted the issue, saying, “If Democratic elites push Biden out and disenfranchise 14 million voters like me, the Democratic legislators are no better than Republicans.”
The Biden campaign is leveraging this grassroots support to counteract the internal party pressure. Despite the turmoil, Biden plans to resume campaigning next week, emphasizing the need to rally the party base for the upcoming election.
