Democrats Launch TV Ads Attacking Biden


A new ad campaign by concerned Democrats, urging President Biden to โ€œpass the torch,โ€ will soon air on his favorite TV program, MSNBCโ€™s โ€œMorning Joe,โ€ as pressure mounts for him to step aside following poor debate performance and bleak polling figures.

An ad urging President Biden to step aside and โ€œpass the torchโ€ will air on MSNBCโ€™s โ€œMorning Joeโ€โ€”the presidentโ€™s favorite TV programโ€”next week.

A new group called Pass the Torch, comprised of concerned Democrats, plans to start running the ads in the Washington-area media market on Monday, NBC reported Friday. The coverage area includes the 81-year-old presidentโ€™s Rehoboth Beach, Del., home, where he is recuperating after testing positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday.

โ€œWe want to get this messageโ€”that weโ€™re so grateful for all youโ€™ve done, and now itโ€™s seriously time to pass the torchโ€”directly to President Biden,โ€ Aaron Regunberg of Pass the Torchโ€™s steering committee told the outlet.

โ€œWeโ€™ll be going up on his favorite programs, and we plan to stay up until we hear the announcement that heโ€™s going to do the right thing and step aside. Hopefully, weโ€™ll be able to take it off the air in the very near future.โ€

The ad features seven Pennsylvania voters asking Biden to โ€œpass the torchโ€ to avoid losing to former President Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee.

โ€œPlease, be the leader we know you are. Pass the torch,โ€ one person says.

โ€œPresident Biden, you saved democracy in 2020,โ€ says another.

โ€œNow you have a chance to do it again,โ€ adds the following speaker.

โ€œOur countryโ€™s future is in your hands,โ€ another voter declares.

Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, is widely seen as the most likely successor to Biden if he decides to retire, amid mounting calls from party leaders following his disastrous June 27 debate performance.

This week, reports indicated that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) had privately briefed Biden on bleak polling figures suggesting a substantial loss to Trump, 78, possibly dooming down-ballot Democrats. Former President Barack Obama also reportedly confided in allies that he believes Biden should end his campaign.
