Senior Democrats tell Joe to go as they worried they will also lose the House of Representatives.
They said that 2 weeks ago and he's still there.
Market thinks he's gone (again). Kamala now shorter than ever for nominee.

Isn't Gavin Newsom worth a bet, either for nominee or president? He was fully behind Biden, but with Biden out of the way the race surely opens up beyond Harris.

Out to 19, "Speculation that Joe Biden might be about to pull out of the presidential race". :D

I think he deserved to go down with Covid if it's the only thing that will force the stubborn git out of the race. But also, Trump deserved much more than a thick ear.

Unsure if relevant but 50 Cent and "Many Men" are trending after the assassination attempt 📈

Crazy that he's a much bigger price than when he looked dead and buried after NATO, he looks vulnerable now but not as bad IMO.

Obama now officially raises concerns of Biden continuing.

As the saying goes “That’s it folks”.

He had doubts after the debate didn't he?

Think that makes Biden's resolve even stronger but you wonder how the fundraising is going, he knows he'll have to go if that stops.

Just watching Harris rally her troops, it really beggars belief that some still want a walking corpse to run for presidency!

How does an ugly bastard like Trump produce attractive offspring? He's got his granddaughters fronting his cause now.

The issue with Newsom is that he's from Cali and the Pres and VP can't be from the same state. So for that bet to be a winner, Harris has to go as well and that seems really unlikely at this point.

However I've been wrong about most of the twists and turns in the past few weeks, I'm green to the tune of $129 and I consider myself extremely lucky to have got that 😂

I think it will be a Harris/Shapiro ticket, potentially Harris/Pritzker but having Shapiro on board would be a massive boost because he's extremely popular and PA is probably THE most important state in this race.

I laid him at 9.6 but he's only moved as far as 11. Republicans are gonna argue their man stands up to a bullet, the other guy gets knocked out with a cold!
I got him at 8.00 within minutes of waking up to the bullet!

Just like the 1980s, Mr ‘T’ will save the world. We love him, we honour him, we kneel before him, god intervened and saved him. Mr ‘T’, Mr ‘T’, Mr ‘T’.

WTF??? While I've been sitting in the garden away from the TV, Biden's back down to 13!

It's not even the biggest beef in the US right now, everyone too busy talking about Drizzy vs Kenny
