Biden 'fuming' at Obama as pressure mounts for him to step aside | LBC analysis

Vanessa Feltz and Simon Marks discuss reports that US President Joe Biden is reportedly "fed up" and "irritated" with Democratic allies, including Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi, for urging him to step down from the presidential race.

The New York Times writes that Biden, who is recovering from COVID-19, is frustrated with party leaders who are concerned about his age and fitness.

It comes as several Democrats have voiced their opposition to Biden's nomination, following his underwhelming performance in the first presidential debate.

'He is fuming about the role that these two former allies are playing to oust him from power', says Marks.

He adds that the Democrats are in 'internecine warfare that by the hour is intensifying', as the pressure heats up on Biden to 'bow out'.

LBC is the home of live debate around news and current affairs in the UK.

Can we have a real journalist now please? Sangita for instance…

[darkdancer]

Could we have Sangita back? Thank you!

[brianferguson]

What do we want ???
SANGITA MYSKA !
When do we want her ???

[Rosskles]

It's an insult to Sangita to call this journalism.

[izavial]

This lady's voice drives me nuts, one of those voices that smacks of "I love the sound of my own voice" but sounds mildly offensive. Bring back the talent, like Sangita Myska for example.

[brianferguson]

Please reinstate Sangita Myska. An accomplished journalist not a reject from daytime TV like this lump.

[youcantalwaysgetwhatyouwan]

I dont find the opinion of a talktv reject appealing. This is not intelligent discussion.

[wechsler-]

If LBC are paying this guy for actual data based news they should ask for their money back...

[yousefhanboula]

Talk about lowering the tone... Please see sense and bring Sangita back or be prepared to lose long-standing listeners...

[dp]

Go back to Talk Tv with Nadine Dorries, Jeremy Kyle and James Whale. That was your level.

[danmayberry]

"Charles" Schumer? Reportedly fuming? Reportedly desperate? This time slot has become a giddy gossip column.

[saltybaws]

Vanessa is, quite clearly, the lowest rung in 'conversation'. Now... That is saying something considering Farage crops up from time to time!

[mathewgrover]

Poor joe
With nowhere to go
Left or right
Fast but slow.

Joe is fighting
To be the best
Win or lose
It's your guess?

Yes he's old
But wise maybe
At 80 years old
He's still a baby.

In the USA
They will try to dump
Goodbye joe
Here comes trump

[XTRAIT-emrx]

Vanessa Feltz doesn't have anywhere near Sangita's verve, charisma or appeal.

[tonialee]

It's actually disrespectful to the voters to replace Joe as the clear winner of the primaries to someone the elites of the party select. How can they run as the pro-democracy party then? Such challenges should have happened during the primaries.

[BrokenHill]

Yes, bring back Sangita, not this empty vessel

[Ophelia]

LBC still won't talk about the Leeds riots? Typical

[furlycee]

I’m an American millennial and it makes my blood boil that the ego of the senile old narcissist is going to ruin my future because he cannot step aside.

[stephen_langdon]

Are her YouTube views that bad LBC has had to resort to not using her thumbnail on the video 😂

Tbf, it's not a bad plan as I avoid her stuff, although I've clicked on, paused, and not turning

I can't stand her style of journalism

[Our_Sole_Pusch]

For some reason, VF reminds me of Katie Hopkins.
