Including one running for President.
All he has to do is look at the graph about illegal immigrants, and he lives.

I see they've given up getting him to climb the stairs to the main cabin. He now travels as baggage.
I would give it days. His closest ally in Obama is now giving him the tap on the shoulder.
Biden reportedly 'soul-searching' on whether to stay in 2024 presidential race, as Obama privately expresses concerns
The US president, currently isolating with COVID-19, is said to be reflecting on whether to drop out as the presumptive Democratic candidate in the November election.

You could be right, he might not make it to the end of July? The Dems have to act now or face a Trump landslide? IMO they have concocted this COVID story in order to work out his departure and save face. The puppet master has cut the strings and with that Sleepy Joe is history. There is absolutely no way America can go another 4 years with is bloke in charge?I would give it days. His closest ally in Obama is now giving him the tap on the shoulder.

If Biden steps down would probably need to be in next few days.
Harris is favourite betting to be the Democrats rep
Only four weeks till the party's convention. Need to give the new would be nominees time to introduce themselves to the electorate before then.
good point
in that eventuality, the Dems must put the achievements of the administration and party on full blast

A celebration and reminder of Bidens legacy while building the next generation and pointing out there is now only 1 old man left in the race
Use pictures of old people sleeping. looking haggard etc
It would be the smartest possible thing to do right now, absolutely deflate Trump’s big moment. But nothing they’ve done in the campaign has been smart thus far.

News kid is onto it
Different time and different place but Bob Hawke replaced Bill Hayden 4 weeks prior the 1983 election and saluted
A short campaign for a new guy/girl could actually be an advantage

Harris would have to run heavily on women's rights and hope for a record female turnout you'd think.
Who would they choose as her VP candidate?

Some white bloke.
Didn't Hawke replacing Hayden only beat Fraser calling the election by a matter of hours?
EDIT: did my Wikipedia research:
An election was not due for seven more months; however, Fraser, emboldened by the unexpected retention of Flinders, had caught wind of the impending change and attempted to immediately call an election (for 5 March), which would have put Parliament into "caretaker mode" and essentially frozen Labor into contesting the election with Hayden as leader.
However, Fraser could not secure a swift dissolution of parliament as paperwork for the double dissolution had to be prepared, delaying the official proclamation by Governor-General, Sir Ninian Stephen by a few hours. Fraser had hoped to do this before the announcement of the change in Labor leadership. Unfortunately for Fraser, Hayden had resigned two hours before Fraser travelled to Government House. He only learned Hayden had resigned after the writs formally issued.
The talk among high-level Democratic strategists and donors has now turned to who is best positioned to serve has Harris’s running mate, and the short list has boiled down to Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.
What do people know about these three?

Kentucky - Beasher was 26 points for Trump in 2020 and the last 3 elections have had a 25-30 point margin
Arizona - Kelly was neck and neck in 2020 , Red x 4 points in 2016 and 9 points red in 2012
Unsure if this means Arizona is turning Blue but Kelly may swing those all important 11 EC votes to Harris
North Carolina - Cooper was also neck and neck in 2020 , 3 points Red in 2016 and 2 points Red in 2012 - 15 EC votes
Without even looking at the candidates personal and political messages the last 2 bring significant home state advantage if named

Kelly as a former fighter pilot and astronaut has quite an interesting backstory.
I bet he could tell a yarn or two.
