AOC Confirms She Will Continue to Support Joe Biden
Joe Biden has been losing support among congressional Democrats.
Oddly enough, one of the Democrats who has clashed with Biden in the past remains loyal.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) confirmed that she will continue to support Biden despite the sudden medical crisis that has enveloped the White House.
The Matter is Closed
As we noted above, Democrats are abandoning Joe Biden in alarming numbers.
Democrat leaders have been coming forward to demand that Joe Biden step down or withdraw from the election.
Biden continues to push back, and for the first time, I now believe the 25th Amendment is a real possibility.
The question in that regard is if they can get Kamala Harris on board and if she is willing to cross Joe Biden like that.
One Democrat who says she will continue to support Joe Biden is AOC.
When asked, she stated, “I have spoken to the President over the weekend. I have spoken with him extensively.
“He made clear then and he has made clear since that he is in this race. The matter is closed.
“He had reiterated that this morning, he has reiterated that to the public.
“Joe Biden is our nominee. He is not leaving this race. He is in this race and I support him.”
Biden was asked about this during an appearance on “Morning Joe,” and he continued to push back, now saying it is just the elites who want him out.
Biden stated, “The American public is not going to move away from me as an average voter. Again, I’m here for two reasons, pal. One, to rebuild the economy for hard-working middle-class people, to give everybody a shot, a straight shot.
“Everybody gets a fair chance, number one. Number two, remember about all this talk about how I don’t have the black support? Give me a break. Come with me, watch. I’m getting frustrated by the elites, not you guys, the elites in the party, oh, they know so much more.
“Any of these guys that don’t think I should run, run against me, announce for president, challenge me at the convention.”
When Biden is reminded that the polling shows him trailing Trump, he insists the media is using the wrong polls and that his internal polls tell a different story.
Hopefully, he keeps thinking that way and Donald Trump rolls right over him during the election.
