Doesn’t the assassination attempt tampers down attempts of getting rid of Biden?
Just last weeks news broke from Biden ousters that they were targeting this coming Friday as the deadline for them to pressure Biden to exit the race. Now everything has changed. All the news is about the attempt and security concerns with upcoming hearings and less about getting rid of Biden
Albeit late, Biden has come out and looked semi-not senile and he’s milking it by having a prime time ‘unity’ address to the nation tonight [it’s Pre-taped before sun downing] where he might appear a little bit less cognitive decline. All of this is not only a opportunity for Trump but for Biden to saved off attempts at getting rid of him

I think this solidifies Biden as the nominee. No one in their right mind wants it now. Except of course Kumswallow.

That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Pre-assassination attempt there was a risk that new nominee might posed a risk to a Trump victory; now Biden remaining the nominee is probably what Trump would have wanted; outside of Kamala, because of the baggage of his administration and his low approval rating

Since this is likely the current state of the election, who would want to even get in there and be humiliated?

Just got confirmation.
At a time when President Joe Biden has been struggling to shore up support with fellow Democrats following a miserable June debate performance and shaky cleanup effort, some professional Democratic political operatives said Saturday’s shooting will end up sealing the incumbent’s electoral fate.
“We’re so beyond f---ed,” one longtime Democratic insider said, noting that the image of Trump thrusting his fist in the air, with blood dramatically smeared across his face, will be indelible.
“The presidential contest ended last night,” said a veteran Democratic consultant, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to give a candid assessment of his own party’s standing less than four months before the election.
“Now it’s time to focus on keeping the Senate and trying to pick up the House,” he said. “The only positive thing to come out of last night for Democrats is we are no longer talking about Joe Biden’s age today.”
A Biden campaign spokesperson pointed to the president's Monday interview with NBC Nightly News host Lester Holt, along with his primetime speech scheduled for Sunday night, saying he would give "a forceful and needed address to update the nation on the horrifying attack on Donald Trump and the need for every American to come together to not just condemn, but put to an end political violence in this country once and for all."

Biden is still going to step aside after the nomination so that he can send all $100 million in the bank to whomever replaces him.
He steps out ahead of that and he can only transfer peanuts.
