The Pubbies know and will be watching a lot more carefully and with more people. I've been in the meetings and know this to be true.Anyone get the feeling Joe thinks he knows something about the upcoming election others don’t. He is likely refusing to dropout because he thinks he has it in the bag. Likely by cheating. The rest of the party understands that if he wins that way it with his numbers it will cause a real insurrection as it isn’t possible for him to win fairly.
If Xiden wins I think there will be a whole lot more 10th Amendment lawsuits.
The Dims know this and there are a lot of high level Dims that want him to drop out. I think Joe has dementia and honestly believes he is the only one who can beat Bad Orange Man and I also think his staff doesn't give him honest answers because they want to keep their prestigious jobs. Jill and Hunter especially want to keep their jobs.
Which reminds me, if Joe runs and loses then Jill still gets to be First Lady until Jan. 20, 2025. If he steps down then she doesn't. So Jill and Hunter's deal would be to keep him office as long as possible even if he loses.
The Dims' best move would be to not waste anyone good right now, accept that Bad Orange Man will win, regroup and gear up for 2028.
Which means let Kneepads run right now. PA Gov. Shapiro is being mentioned as a possible running mate with Kneepads but I think a large portion of the Dims won't vote for a ticket with black and a Joo on it.
Shapiro would be electable maybe the next time since he's a Democrat but he's not crazy.
