As the 2024 election gets closer, Joe Biden is becoming more and more desperate, and he should be.

The world is an uglier and uglier place under President Biden.

Nearly no one believes that the country is moving in the right direction.

And Joe Biden is clearly an ailing man.

He is not with it.

Everyone knows it.

That apparently includes former President Barack Obama.

So according to the Washington Post over the weekend, quote, former President Barack Obama has raised questions about the structure of President Biden's

re-election campaign, discussing the matter directly with Biden and telling the president's aides and

allies the campaign needs to be empowered to make decisions without clearing them with the White

House, according to three people familiar with the conversations. In other words, Barack Obama is telling Joe Biden to outsource his campaign to people

who are not Joe Biden.

Now, apparently, Obama grew animated in discussing the election.

He recommended David Proof, whose Obama's own 2008 campaign manager to head up Joe Biden's

re-elect effort.

Other Democrats are also deeply worried about Biden's re-elect chances. According to the Post, quote, Representative Alyssa Slotkin of Michigan, who is running for her state's open sentencing, has expressed concern to allies she might not be able to win if Biden is at the top of the ticket, according to people familiar with those conversations. And according to Axios, quote, many high-level Democrats think things are not fine.

They fear the president's political machine hasn't found the sweet spot between a chill zen and dangerous complacency and has been way too zen.

Biden's allies are worried that his base won't show up.

That includes Jim Clyburn.

You remember Jim Clyburn, the congressman from South Carolina, whose endorsement of Joe Biden over Bernie Sanders basically turned the primary elections in 2020 toward Joe Biden.

Here is Clyburn saying that he's worried that voter turnout is just not going to happen for

Joe Biden.
