House Republicans are privately sharing concerns about the possibility of Democrats replacing President Biden as their White House nominee after his poor debate performance.
As questions continue to mount about President Biden's fitness for office, some House Republicans are privately concerned that replacing him at the top of the Democratic ticket could result in the GOP losing the White House in November. 'As a human, it's probably good for Joe Biden that he's now probably not going to have to be subjected to this another four years. But for the party, it's not great.
They suggested that California Gov. Gavin Newsom or a similar popular figure somewhere like New York could inspire higher turnout among Democratic voters in those states, putting Republican-held swing seats in jeopardy in down-ballot races. It comes after Biden's poor performance in Thursday night's CNN Presidential Debate, his first debate against former President Trump since 2020.
Even Biden's top allies in Congress conceded he had a bad showing. One House Democrat told Fox News Digital, 'Obviously, there are conversations that I believe need to be had at all levels, with the realization of, this is not just about the presidency, this is about down-ballot.' Republicans have long contended that Biden is unfit for office.
However, not everyone within the House GOP is concerned. Rep. Tim Burchett, R-Tenn., argued that voters will be focused on Biden's policies while in office, which the majority of Democrats support, but Republicans argue have hurt the country. He said a new candidate would ultimately be distilled to a 'shinier, cleaner version of Joe Biden.
