Embattled Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) has finally seen the light and called on President Joe Biden to step out of the 2024 race. It seems even Democrats are starting to recognize the sinking ship that is the Biden presidency.
Tester, who is facing a tough reelection battle in his purple state, issued a statement to the Daily Montanan expressing his respect for Biden’s service as president while stating that he believes Biden should not seek another term. Well, at least one Democrat has some common sense.

But Tester isn’t alone in his assessment. He joined Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT) as one of the few prominent Democrats in the Senate to openly call on Biden to step aside. It’s clear that some Democrats are feeling the pressure and are starting to doubt Biden’s ability to win in November.
Even Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) gave Tester his blessing, telling him to do whatever he thinks is best. It’s quite a spectacle to see Democrats turning against their own president, but it’s not surprising considering the disastrous policies and lackluster leadership we’ve seen from Biden.
According to the New York Times, sources close to Biden have said that he may be considering dropping out of the race and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as his replacement. It’s a desperate move, but Democrats know they need Harris to energize their base, especially black women voters.
It’s no wonder that conflicting reports are circulating about Biden’s next move. Some say he’ll endorse Harris immediately, while others claim he’ll leave the nomination up to an open convention. Either way, it’s clear that Biden’s days as president are numbered.
The truth is, Biden’s legacy is already on the line. If he drops out of the race, it will be a clear admission of his failure as a leader. And if he endorses Harris, it will only highlight the fact that he was never the one in charge to begin with.
Conservatives have been warning about Biden’s incompetence from the start, and it seems even some Democrats are starting to see the writing on the wall. It’s time for Biden to step aside and let someone with real leadership qualities take the reins. The future of our country depends on it.
