Unless you have proof, shut it. This is why people hate the main stream media. Do some actual reporting for once.

[Fiestyredhead]

I'll believe this when Obama goes to President Biden and ask him.to leave. Quit focusing on this and start reporting on the good things the President is doing!

[yollie]

If it was private, how would you know and why are you reporting on secret conversations. I’m about done with all the Democrat leader going against our president. Period!

[leptalpheus]

where is the video of Obama saying such thing? this is BS...

[razorbladerabbit]

imagine a sex offender convicted criminal still having any chance at all.

[pauldamore]

How can a man who just got convicted of 34 felony charges still be nominated?? Don’t tell me crime don’t pay

[Roniz]

So, this is Obama’s administration, not Biden’s. Got it!

[paulinemuthena]

Obama is saying this Then how does anybody know what he is thinking or saying.
Biden never went against Obama.What happens now????.

[zardo]

What the hell is wrong with these Dems? They must want to lose.

[Foodcooklove]

Wishing Biden the soonest recovery! God bless America! ❤❤❤

[kevinhoffman]

[georgereed]

I think Joe is a great candidate who definitely doesn’t have dementia

[mikeymclucky]

November can't get here fast enough

[phiksit]

How the hell you going to get a new candidate on the ballot this late???

[lindasimpson]

Obama you are shameful. You should be supporting Biden . Im so disappointed in democrats. Why are you waiting so long to voice you oppinion. Instead why not pull together for the win.

[lizp]

I love President Biden and wish him a speedy recovery. Democrats should discuss their doubts in private and come to a united decision. This petty bickering in public leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth. The media is just as bad, going back and forth, quoting polls at nauseum. I find I have to watch foreign news sources to get objective, unbiased news about my own country.

[SignedBlake]

That’s really hard to believe. If it’s true, I thoroughly blame the media.

[jamalchess]

if Biden stays Dems lose if Biden drops out Dems lose. its a lose lose either way at this point

[joang]

In all the way for Biden! If Obama really said that, he should be ashamed to turn on a man that stood by him throughout his Presidency.
