Republican National Committee Co-Chairwoman Lara Trump argued that the Democrats will not be able to improve their odds of winning the presidential election, regardless of whether they keep President Joe Biden as their nominee.

The discussion about replacing Biden as the Democratic Party’s 2024 presidential nominee has significantly intensified following the first presidential debate. Many people felt that Biden delivered a poor performance compared to former President Donald Trump. In response to her father-in-law’s debate performance, Lara Trump claimed that it was the best of his political career and convinced voters to choose him over Biden.

“Donald Trump is the only way we get this country back, and I believe it doesn’t matter if it’s Joe Biden and Kamala Harris or, quite frankly, anyone else they put in there,” Lara Trump said on Fox News’s “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo.” “We had four years of Donald Trump. We know how secure our borders were. We know how much more money people had in their pockets, how much cheaper it was to go buy gas, how much safer we felt on the world stage when Donald Trump was there. And people want him back in office.”

Lara Trump firmly warned against Democrats even considering anyone other than Vice President Kamala Harris as a replacement for Biden, stating that it would constitute a major assault on the democratic process. Some names floated as replacements for Biden include former first lady Michelle Obama, as well as Governors Gavin Newsom (D-CA) and Gretchen Whitmer (MI), the Washington Examiner reported.

A leading liberal newspaper in the South is calling for Biden to drop out of the race after his weak, stumbling debate performance.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution editorial board’s op-ed is the most recent in a chorus of voices supporting Democrats who are trying to persuade Biden to withdraw from the race right away after he appeared raspy, vacant, and unable to speak coherently during the debate.

“The shade of retirement is now necessary for President Biden,” the paper’s editorial board wrote, adding that dropping out would be “for the good of the country.” They argued that Biden failed to convey a “competent and coherent vision for the future of America” at the cycle’s first debate.

“He failed to outline the most fundamental aspects of his platform,” they wrote. “He failed to take credit for the significant accomplishments of his 3½ years in office. And he failed to counter the prevarications of an opponent, who, according to CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale, lied 30 times during the course of the debate, approximately once every 90 seconds of his allotted time.”

Other media outlets found Biden to have lied several times, too, including his demonstrably false claim that no U.S. military members have died during his term; 13 members were killed in a suicide bombing days before his chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan, and three more died in Jordan from a drone attack.

AJC’s board said that Biden surrogates’ responses, including former President Obama and Vice President Kamala Harris, and aides’ cover-up attempt that the president had a cold were “insulting to the American people.” Biden’s lack of mental acuity only strengthened Trump’s arguments that he’s beyond his capacity to effectively serve the country, especially as threats arise around the world.

“President Biden’s ability to withstand the mental and physical rigors of another four-year term would be of concern regardless of his opponent,” they wrote. “The fact that he is all that stands in the way of Trump returning to the Oval Office significantly raises the stakes.”

“If he truly hopes to defeat Trump, he must pass the torch to the next generation of Democratic leaders and urge the party to nominate another candidate at its convention in Chicago in August,” they wrote. “Doing this will require a massive and unprecedented string of legal and regulatory actions to get a Biden successor named and placed on each state’s ballot. This is difficult and necessary work that must start immediately.”
