    So Biden’s campaign team called her, and a “rival” who’s was also planning for 2028 after Biden left

    Kind of burying the lede that Biden’s campaign team is reaching out to alternatives to gauge interest now that the family is blaming the campaign. I doubt the rival was on the call, so it sounds like the campaign is discussing alternatives with multiple options.

    There’s no reason to keep propping up Biden. He’s a liability and not even his campaign team, family, and closest political allies are united anymore.

    It is too risky to keep plowing ahead with him especially if he thinks he’s still doing great and has a shot.

      My guess would be they were arranging calls to rally support and force the alternatives to say they’re not interested in replacing him.
