CLF Statement on Biden Dropping Out of Presidential Race

“If Congressional Democrats cynically believe they can simply swap Biden for his Vice President, border czar and walking punchline, they have a fundamental disrespect for voters’ intelligence,” CLF President Dan Conston.

WASHINGTON – Congressional Leadership Fund, the super PAC endorsed by Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republican Leadership, released the following statement from CLF President Dan Conston:

“President Biden’s historic unpopularity didn’t happen overnight. It came from disastrous economic policies and a complete dereliction of duty at the border, which were carried out by even more unpopular Vice President and Biden’s Border Czar Kamala Harris. And every Democrat in Congress supported the extreme Biden policies every step of the way that crippled our country and left American families paying the price.

“This is all made worse by the fact that Congressional Democrats clearly knew about Biden’s profound mental decline and covered for him until it was too obvious to not admit it. They chose party over country, and voters will hold them accountable.

“If Congressional Democrats cynically believe they can simply swap Biden for his Vice President, border czar and walking punchline, they have a fundamental disrespect for voters’ intelligence.

“Democrats now have a big question to answer: if Joe Biden isn’t fit to run again, how is he possibly fit to be in charge of running the country now at such a perilous time?”
