Abigail Disney, the granddaughter to Roy O. Disney, who cofounded The Walt Disney Company, told CNBC on Thursday that she plans to withhold donations to the party she has funded for years until Biden drops out. The president has said he has no plans to withdraw from the race, despite calls for him to do so.

“I intend to stop any contributions to the party unless and until they replace Biden at the top of the ticket. This is realism, not disrespect. Biden is a good man and has served his country admirably, but the stakes are far too high,” Abigail Disney said in a lengthy statement to CNBC. “If Biden does not step down the Democrats will lose. Of that I am absolutely certain. The consequences for the loss will be genuinely dire.”

Kamala is doing better than joe against trump in several polls at this point

Biden has also been losing support for months now. Biden only firm base at this point is older liberals. Everyone else in the "democratic coalition" was only going to vote for Biden because of the alternative. Biden and the Democratic elite have been operating a genocide that has basically challenged people to stay home.

Bidens age also didn't just become a problem. Many have been talking about it for ages. We were told that we were over exaggerating.

The best way to handle replacing Biden would be to have a primary, but the dem establishment also just decided, "were not doing that this time."

Generic dem still beats both Joe and Trump in the polls. I'd rather get a non genocide supporting person that will hold up democracy then be forced to support genocide joe.

Im forced to vote blue no matter what out of fear of Project 2025, but I dont get why the dems want to make it so hard.
