Honestly do not care what they do at this point. As long as it’s decisive and the DNC throws its full weight and anger behind it, I’m in.

As usual, these things tend to take on a life of their own. If they are allowed to reach critical mass it’s only a matter of time.

Yep. Also: Biden is and always has been a creature of the party. Will he now ignore what it wants?

I don’t see him doing that. If it’s clear the party wants Harris over him, he will bow out.

I'm generally skeptical of these types of claims, but it does seem there is at least some smoke here.

Yeah there's enough reporting here that it feels real now. I think Biden has maybe a week and a half to figure this out, given Democratic panic - and any slip-up is the end.
