Even Nancy Pelosi thinks that President Biden's age is gonna be a huge factor in 2024. She, look, this is a bigger story than her statement about Biden. You get that. I mean, she comes out and says, well, in her grandma, great grandma kind of passive aggressive way, she's master at the passive aggressive great grandma. She comes out and says, well, you know, I'm 82. He's 80. Yeah, it could be a factor. And then she follow, she follows it up with this statement, well, I think there are other great candidates out there. I mean, come on. And then now you see all this thing about the, the, the document stories that are coming. Democrats are driving that story. I mean, they're the ones that are pushing the story because they want to get rid of the crazy old man.

You know, it, it's funny you picked up on that exact same quote, because to me that's the story. It's not just her saying like, is age a positive? No, it's not for him. But then the, I think we have other great candidates when the time comes. So she is already, you know, shifting into that like, oh, I'll support him if he runs. But there's a lot of good other people over here. And the problem is actually no, no. If we had all of those good other candidates you're talking about.

Where are they?

We wouldn't be having a conversation about him maybe running in 2024. And I think that, that also weighs heavily on his mind because he understands, I don't even think he wants to do the second term.

No. I mean, the guy, look.

But he's looking around at his own party and saying, where, where are you, good candidates?

They're gonna put, they're gonna, they're gonna put him back. Well, there are some good candidates. Tell, tell me your.

Well, well, they are.

I mean, there's some good candidates.

You've got Katie Porter.

Katie Porter.

But I don't think she's, I don't think she's there yet.

She's not ready. But what a great candidate, man.

But 2028, a hundred percent.

Ro Khanna, I mean, you know.

Ro Khanna is great.

We got some great people out there.

Merkley is good.

Yeah.

But they.

Okay.

They won't challenge him, unfortunately.

They're gonna put him down in the basement again. Okay. They're gonna put him down. But the old man in the basement, if he runs again and the, and, and let him run a campaign from there. But the truth is that the most of these leaks of these stories, I mean, it's very clear. It's coming from the inside of the Democratic elites. They know this. They don't want him to run again. They, they, they've seen him. Think back with Obama. Do you remember when I was waiting for Obama to endorse him? Do you know he never did. He never endorsed him. At some, I guess when it came right down to the end. But when in the primaries, you know, I, he just sat silent.

Yeah.

Because he knows the guy's, you know, not right in a lot of ways.

Right. I mean, you know, being his vice president for eight years, you would've thought as soon as Biden announced, Obama would've been like, yep. That's, that's the guy folks. He's, he's my guy. We're gonna do this again.

Yeah.

And the fact that he didn't, he waited so long before even saying anything about it. And the only reason he did was to, you know, kind of kneecap Bernie Sanders campaign.

Right, right.

Because he had the wind at his back. But even Bernie Sanders, who would've been an amazing president.

Oh, he would’ve been great.

He's, he's got that same age factor going.

Yeah.

Although he's, he doesn't look like he's missed a step in 40 years.

Yeah. But you can't recycle.

But you can't.

You're not gonna be able to recycle.

Right.

Which is unfortunate. He could have done so much good in these last, in these last four years. So, anyway, Farron, thank you for joining me. Okay.

Thank you.

Appreciate it. That's all for this week.
