Axelrod says it’s ‘overreacting’ to say he told Biden to end 2024 campaign
The Hill ^ | 11/07/2023 | NICK ROBERTSON

Democratic strategist David Axelrod played down comments he made Monday which implied President Biden should drop out of the 2024 race.

“It’s overreacting to say I told him to drop out,” the senior Obama advisor told Politico on Tuesday. “I didn’t do that.”

“He’s the only one to make the decision. And if his decision is ‘no, I’m the best person to take this on,’ then he will,” he added.

Axelrod sent a dire warning to the president on Monday, saying poor polling numbers “will send tremors of doubt thru the party.”

Biden isn’t going anywhere. We’ve been hearing this for so long.

He may be tweaking us a la Carville. Works for them to show some sense now and then.

I’m old enough to remember when Willie Mays was 39 and didn’t have it anymore. No manage could tell him that. HOF’er Juan Marichal said it. Didn’t have to go to the sports section-front page news.

Same with Joe Paterno. Some people just want it on the record-could be.

“He may be tweaking us a la Carville. Works for them to show some sense now and then.”

Axelrod was the one guy to leave the Obama WH early and head back home. He seems a bit more grounded than most of the true believers.

The only way Axelrod says it publicly is because Obama wants him to say it. Biden is in trouble - he’s lost Obama’s backing.

Obama choose to back Hillary Clinton over Biden. So it wouldn’t seem so far fetch to see Obama back someone else this time.

As long as Biden can read a promoter and take direction on the earpiece he stays.

He “suggested” he step down.

By “overreacting” do you mean “lying”?

Didn’t think so.

As long as they don’t run out of doubles Biden stays...

It is entirely plausible that Axelrod is only saying this because Obama has communicated his displeasure with the intensity that Joe Biden is applying to the job. Joe had little enough judgment on a good day, and all those are in the rear-view mirror.

A crash-test dummy looking out the windshield as the barrier is approaching.

The Universe is a cruel and unpitying place.

Agreed, why would he even broach the subject? Normally we take for granted, that an incumbent president will run for reelection. It makes you wonder why anyone on the Democrat side would suggest Joe might not run for reelection.
