Some big Democratic donors reportedly want Joe Biden off the 2024 presidential ticket so badly that they are refusing to donate more money until he leaves. They even have a slogan: “No more dough until no more Joe,” reported The Washington Post.

Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaigns. “There is not a practical way to prevent him from being the nominee if he wants to be the nominee,” said Weaver. “If he were to demur, then the question becomes: What’s the process after that? Is it a coronation of Kamala Harris, which a lot of people are making the case for, or do we have some sort of truncated process?”
