Charlamange CALLS OUT Biden’s EGO
At the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday, radio presenter “Charlamagne tha God” pushed Democrats to accept President Biden’s challenge to run against him.
In response to demands that he withdraw from the race so that a another Democrat may take the lead, Biden said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” this past Monday, “I am not going anywhere.” Biden attacked the “elites” that he said controlled the Democratic Party throughout the conversation.
“Run against me, all of these guys who don’t think I should run. Declare your candidacy for president and take me on at the convention, Biden replied.
On his “Breakfast Club” program, Charlamagne played the audio from this interview and said, “All I hear is ego, and I hope they take him up on his offer.” All Democrats who believe that if Biden is the nominee, the Democrats will not be able to win should put him up for challenge at the convention. Please accept his offer.” Biden should step aside if the answer is “no,” and people shouldn’t be offended when people say that, he continued, adding that he has been asking for months if Biden-Harris is a “winnable ticket.” This is especially true if you want to win. Additionally, Charlamagne disagreed with Biden’s language contrasting the “elite” of the Democratic Party, who he claims want him replaced, with the common American, who he claims still supports him.
What distinguishes an outstanding Democrat from an average Democrat? he has almost 80 years of experience as an elected politician! How, therefore, is he not elite? What distinguishes an elite person from an average person?” Charlamagne enquired.
Audience members heard Trump stating that Biden “may very well stay in” because to his “ego” but that Vice President Kamala Harris will take over as his replacement should he withdraw. Charlamagne stated, “I do think he will stay in the race, too.” “I didn’t think, you know, Democrats could win before, but I really don’t think they can win now because the party is in such disarray.”
Later on in the campaign, Charlamagne maintained that Harris would be the only serious contender at the top of the ticket and that any other Democrat would have to run as her vice president.
The radio host responded to Democrats who condemned party members who questioned Biden’s capacity to win and serve as president by saying that the debate was necessary.
