The 2024 campaign for President Joe Biden blasted the Democratic “bedwetters” calling on him to should drop out after his poor debate performance last week, saying the ensuing chaos would become the “best possible way” for former President Donald Trump to win.

“First of all: Joe Biden is going to be the Democratic nominee, period. End of story. Voters voted. He won overwhelmingly,” Biden deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty said in an email to supporters. “And if he were to drop out, it would lead to weeks of chaos, internal foodfighting, and a bunch of candidates who limp into a brutal floor fight at the convention, all while Donald Trump has time to speak to American voters uncontested.”
