Commentator Bill Maher has raised concerns about President Joe Biden’s potential run for re-election in 2024. Maher, known for his incisive humor and unapologetic opinions, has urged the Democratic Party to think twice before nominating “Ruth Bader Biden” for another term. With humor and satire, Maher highlights the dangers of an aging leader who refuses to relinquish power, drawing comparisons to the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Maher’s comments, made on his HBO show “Real Time with Bill Maher,” reflect a growing sentiment within the Democratic Party that Biden may not be fit to run again in 2024. He warns that Biden’s reluctance to step aside could not only harm the party’s chances of winning the election but also jeopardize the country’s future.
“Someone has to convince President Biden that if he runs again, he’s going to turn the country back over to Trump and go down in history as Ruth Bader Biden,” said Maher.
Maher’s comparison of Biden to Ginsburg, who passed away in 2020, resonates with the far-left wing of the party, who were disappointed by the immediate appointment of a conservative justice. But, as Maher points out, the real danger lies in the consequences of Biden’s stubbornness to let someone else take the reins.
“All of us who, like Joe Biden, have been struggling lately with the political situation in the Democratic Party, an incumbent we admire who acquitted himself well in a first term, but who even members of his own party don’t want to see run for a second,” he added.
Maher’s blunt and humorous criticism hits a nerve, highlighting the signs of aging that Biden has displayed during his first year in office. The gaffes, lapses, and moments of disconnect all point towards a leader who may not be up for another term. As Maher puts it, “Say what you want about Trump, but he remembers Kanye’s name.”
In an online post, Maher continued his plea to Biden, stating, “Dear Joe Biden, you did noble service for your country, but it’s time to let someone else finish the job. You don’t want to go down as Ruth Bader Biden.” This statement reflects the growing concern that Biden’s refusal to step aside could lead to his legacy being overshadowed by his insistence on clinging to power.

As the country faces numerous challenges, including economic struggles and threats both domestic and abroad, it is vital that the leader of the nation is capable, competent, and in touch with the present. And as Maher reminds us, Biden may not be the best choice for that role.
Gee Bill your scared, U reap what U sow Dems its on U day 1
Not mentally fit to run again in 2024, huh? This old fool has NEVER been mentally fit to run for POTUS! At his best, he has only been a mediocre mind housed in a tally inept body.
It currently appears that Joe Biden is bound and determined to run for a second term of office. Individuals with dementia are often quite stubborn this way. Only events outside his control are likely to be able to prevent him from running. But ironically, despite his mental infirmity the democrat party may not have an alternative that would be any better.
