Dems Plan to Forgo 2024 Presidential Debates

'We are upset about this country, we’re worried about this country... '

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Possibly in an effort to protect President Joe Biden from public humiliation, the Democratic National Committee has released plans to forgo debates in the approaching 2024 primaries, the Washington Post reported.

According to the Post, the DNC will break with precedent by denying challengers the ability to confront Biden on the issues in public.

“Some of the donors say they are expecting to be asked to organize future events to raise money for Biden’s reelection,” the Post wrote. “The national Democratic Party has said it will support Biden’s reelection, and it has no plans to sponsor primary debates.”

Specifically, declared Democrat candidates Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Marianne Williamson will be denied an opportunity to debate each other, and Biden, on the national stage.

Both candidates have been openly critical of Biden’s tenure as president.

Kennedy has pledged to “end the corrupt merger of state and corporate power that is threatening now to impose a new kind of corporate feudalism in our country.”

According to some polls, upon formally entering the race last week the political scion and outspoken vaccine critic immediately garnered the support of 14% of voters who went with Biden in 2020.

Williamson, a self-help author, offered a more vague vision.

“We are upset about this country, we’re worried about this country,” she said at a campaign kickoff event. “It is our job to create a vision of justice and love that is so powerful that it will override the forces of hatred and injustice and fear.”

Her campaign slogans range from “A New Beginning” to “Disrupt the System.”

Biden, according to the Post’s report, is expected to proclaim his 2024 candidacy in the coming weeks. His team plans to announce his reelection campaign in a forthcoming video, though insider sources declined to commit to a date.

The protection of Biden harkens back to the 2020 general election, wherein Biden attempted to dodge former President Donald Trump in debates, citing both Trump’s nastiness and the coronavirus as reasons to withdraw.

The pair ultimately debated twice but canceled a third debate after the two sides were unable to agree on terms.
