Joe Biden is not ok, and that's ok with the rest of the Bidens.
The New York Times is reporting that after a day spent huddling with his family and close friends at Camp David, the President is being urged by his most trusted advisors, particularly his convicted felon son Hunter, to keep in the race.
President Biden's family is urging him to stay in the race and keep fighting despite last week's disastrous debate performance, even as some members of his clan privately expressed exasperation at how he was prepared for the event by his staff, people close to the situation said on Sunday.
Mr. Biden huddled with his wife, children and grandchildren at Camp David while he tried to figure out how to tamp down Democratic anxiety. While his relatives are acutely aware of how poorly he did against former President Donald J. Trump, they argued that he could still show the country that he is capable of serving for another four years.
Shocking. The one group of people in the entire world who are personally benefitting from Biden's position don't want him to give up.
I don't know if this utter delusion on the part of the Biden's, or if it's their desperate attempt to remain in power because of the potential legal consequences of a Trump victory.
Either way, this is going to come as difficult news to the Democrats who have been publicly pushing Biden to drop out of the race.
More from The Times:
Mr. Biden has also been soliciting ideas from advisers about how to proceed, and his staff has been discussing whether he should hold a news conference or sit for interviews to defend himself to change the narrative, but nothing has been decided yet.
One of the strongest voices imploring Mr. Biden to resist pressure to drop out was his son Hunter Biden, whom the president has long leaned on for advice, said one of the people informed about the discussions, who, like others, spoke on condition of anonymity to share internal deliberations. Hunter Biden wants Americans to see the version of his father that he knows โ scrappy and in command of the facts โ rather than the stumbling, aging president Americans saw on Thursday night.
No crap. How else is Hunter supposed to stay out of prison?
As it stands now, it's unclear how many Democrats want Joe to continue in the race. But the entire Biden Crime Family Biden Family is big on the "The Big Guy" continuing to plunge ahead.
