Bill President Biden facing increasing
pressure from within his own party to
withdraw from the presidential election
for more on this Democratic presidential
candidate Maryann Williamson joining us
in studio Maran thank you for being here
obviously more than 24 million people
tuned in to the NATO press conference
now NATO press conferences usually don't
get 24 million views you among them of
course we saw a very fiery President
Biden last night saying he's not getting
out first let's start with how you see
the the race and the the president's
condition as you watch them well
certainly it's not good for the
Democratic party that internal turmoil
is the main phrase used to describe
where we are right now the Republican
party as you were just uh showing on
your program it's filled with energy
excitement we're going to win and the
Democratic party is going through this
awful family drama that should have been
handled within a week at the most so the
failure here was not just the
president's after theate yes not just
the debate but the failure at crisis
management this needs to be handled and
it needs to be handled now but I also
think we need to take a good look at how
we got here we got here because a vital
robust Democratic process was suppressed
over the last year and a half there's an
elite an elite within the Democratic
party not that the Republicans don't
have it but the Democratic Elite joined
with their Media Partners felt that they
were entitled to choose Joe this was the
bro Joe Protection Program if we had
allowed uh if we had allowed a real
conversation the creative messiness yes
chaotic messiness that's democracy
itself over the last year and a half
whether it was when Bobby Kennedy was
still there JK yuger Dean Phillips
myself we would have been discussing for
the last year and a half what makes the
Democrats the right people to take it
from here instead that was suppressed
and that Elite listened to who they
should have laughed at and laughed at
who they should have listened to were
they not being honest Maran about the
condition of President Biden well the
it's not even about whether they were
being honest what was problematic is
that the American people never got to
see it if the president had had to
actually campaign in this primary you
know Thomas Jefferson said the only safe
repository for power is in the hands of
the people now I'm not mentioning this
because I'm I'm going back it's because
right now these people that felt that
they had the right to choose that it was
Joe need to get off their High horses it
is their arrogance and sense of
entitlement that put us where we are
they need to not believe that they are
entitled to now decide we're going with
kamla or decide we're going with Gavin
the mistake that was made before must be
corrected now this thing must be opened
up we need to have a blitz primary we
need to have an open convention which we
had for 200 years and it worked fine
well I want to play to that point on
process this was Congressman Cly bur who
as you remember in South Carolina he
really got Biden the race turned around
for Biden I was there and believe me I
know it here was curn talking about the
process the conversation should focus on
the record of this
Administration on the alternative to his
election and let Joe Biden continue to
make his own decisions about his future
he's earned that right and I am going to
give him that much respect if he decides
to change his mind later on then we
would respond to that we have until the
19th of August to open our
convention so you want an open
convention what does that look like well
first of all what are we doing here are
we protecting Joe Biden's feelings or
are we protecting American democracy
this is the the conversation that you
just showed uh with uh representative
kurn why is this group and they they
purport to be the real grown-ups in the
room we need to act allow the real
grown-ups to get in the real grown-ups
in American democracy are whoever the
voters decide so when you say how does
it look it looks like we get out there
let myself I'm already on the ballot
kamla Gavin Dean whomever let's get out
there let's talk to the American people
let's do over the next two months what
they we were really in a way not allowed
to do over the last you know Mar and you
talk about the voters and the uped
editorial page of the Washington Post
writes this inciting a Washington Post
ABC poll saying 85% of Americans now say
Biden is too old to serve four more
years as president according to a post
ABC News 's PLL published this week and
56% of Democrats say he should end his
candidacy so I ask you this and it
continues but I want to get to the
question before we run out of time is
President Biden fit to continue to serve
four more
months oh yes I believe he is actually I
believe he is fit to serve another four
months I do believe that but that's very
different than can he do that and mount
the kind of successful campaign that we
need particularly with all this
scuttlebutt we have to put this drama to
rest if we want to win in November we
must put this drama to rest and the only
way to do that is for and I hope it's
happening this weekend enough people
whose voices would matter to the
president to be sitting down with him
and saying this must stop and it must
stop now Last Question come got like 10
seconds could you support Harris at the
top of the ticket
uh if the people choose her if the
voters choose her but if a small group
of elite manipulate an engineer and do
their Shenanigans with the delegates
then uh I will speak my mind as I always
do right now though uh I just uh I
believe in the tenants of the democratic
party I believe it's so important that
the man who says that climate change is
a hoax not return to the White House
that the man who told Mark esper
couldn't we just shoot those those
protesters in the in the in the feet not
be returned to the White House that the
man who uh made sure that o roie way was
overturned not be returned to the White
House we've got to get going well we
shall see where it goes Maran Williamson
