See Maddow, MSNBC panel react to Biden statement on report of confrontation with Dem leadership

Rachel Maddow and a panel of MSNBC colleagues discuss the developing news of meetings between Democratic leaders Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Hakeem Jeffries in which concerns about Biden's candidacy were raised. The White House states Biden told Dem leaders he is the nominee. That statement comes as ABC News reports Schumer and Jeffries told Biden to step down. NBC News has not independently confirmed that at this time.

I’m just a regular person and a woman who knows many people like myself and we trust President Joe Biden and fear making a change and believe at this point, changing the ticket looks foolish and is damaging. We like Joe and Kamala and trust this ticket to lead our nation forward. All of this needs to be put on hold to let the dust settle.

Here is a quote that says it all for "We the people" who want Biden: "If you don't fight for what you want, don't cry for what you loss." Meher Baba

Just MOVE ON. Let him make the choice.. and stop TALKING ABOUT IT. He said what he said.. stop OVERANALYZING THE SITUATION. It’s ridiculous. It’s harmful and it’s annoying.

It's a shame how reps of Democrats don't stick together for him Biden is doing his best and all of u in the Senate should take a lesson from t republicons stick together remember divided we fall

[colettefournier]

I'm so tired of this speculating. It's hard to watch this.

[TriniChuck]

Do they not talk to voters, all I hear is what democrats leaders think . If they replace him now, they will definitely lose

[theanomaloushousewife]

With this move, I've lost a lot of respect for Hakeem Jeffries. Shame on you. Shame on Claire McCaskill for losing her mind on TV right after the debate and starting this whole line of nonsense. Way to sink your own party!

[acecchetti]

Senators and members of Congress better start listening to we, the voters, not the pundits

[williamperdue]

America moves forward, not backward. Stay calm. And vote Blue… with Love!

What The PEOPLE are saying is that You TALKING HEADS HAVE TO STOP DRIVING THIS RHETORIC!!

Never under estimate the power of "We the People, 🇺🇸" Truth Justice Democracy, 💙"

[ashleylawson]

We stand behind President Biden. He has bridged this country when we had tremendous turmoil and hate. Thank you President Biden may God be with you. 💙We the people are behind you.

[marcdeangelis]

Seems to me like "They, the donors" have a lot more power than "We, the People".

[prestonnicodemus]

The idea that this is even a contest giving the alternative waiting for this country goes beyond words.

[thedemencha]

We need to stop this BS.... Money talks... We need to boycott these advertisers on MSNBC and CNN. They're not doing journalism just opinions.

[sMusix]

Don’t throw Biden under the bus, support Biden. Nancy, Chuck, Adam, Jeff stop it, support 100% Biden and Kamala. Your are not true friends or loyal.

[swkrissie]

Wow, I really admire each of these people, but listening to them wring their hands, quote ( useless) polls, and wish Biden was OUT makes me think less of them. The media was the reason Trump won, and they are doing it again. They never fail to to the wrong thing.

[hanaisalontan]

Im done with these people. I dont care about their OPINIONS.

[marialofgren-ipuq]

Thank you Biden for standing with the working class people! Thank you.

The democrats need to grow a pair, or as Tammy Wynette said, stand by your man. This election isn't about Trump or Biden. It is about Project 2025 and The Constitution. Find a new message and promote Biden's wisdom.
