Jon Favreau and\u2063 George Clooney have also voiced concerns about Biden&#8217;s cognitive decline, further fueling speculation about his potential exit from the race. However, Scarborough\u2062 argues that \u200bthe pathway for Biden to graciously step aside does not involve the Obamas or the Clintons.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"> <?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<header> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/news\/\">  News <\/a>  <\/p>\n<h2>Biden Campaign Believes Obama Is Working Behind the Scenes to Orchestrate His Replacement, Scarborough Says<\/h2>\n<p> <span> <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/dcnf\/\">  <\/a> <\/p>\n<p> <span>   By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/author\/dcnf\/%20\"><span>Jason Cohen<\/span><\/a> <\/span> <span>   July 11, 2024 at 6:32am <\/span> <\/span>  <\/header>\n<section>\n<p>President Joe Biden\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fetterman-campaign-wants-lower-debate-expectations-from-the-media\/\" title=\"Fetterman Campaign Wants Lower Debate Expectations From the Media\">campaign thinks<\/a> former President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/tucker-carlson-drops-bombshell-unusually-good-source-obama-sabotage-biden-underway\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barack Obama<\/a> is secretly coordinating the growing push for the president to drop out of the race, \u201cMorning Joe\u201d host Joe Scarborough asserted on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Obama allies have pounced on Biden as the president and his team strive to maintain his standing as the presumptive Democratic nominee following his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/why-mcconnell-isnt-expecting-the-gop-to-retake-the-senate\/\" title=\"Why McConnell Isn\u2019t Expecting the GOP to Retake the Senate\">disastrous debate performance<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden campaign and \u201cDemocratic officials\u201d suspect Obama himself is behind the effort, Scarborough said, adding he believes it will backfire.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Biden Campaign Believes Obama Is Working \u2018Behind The Scenes\u2019 To \u2018Orchestrate\u2019 Calls To Step Down, Joe Scarborough Says <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rU5q58TSUY\">pic.twitter.com\/rU5q58TSUY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Daily Caller (@DailyCaller) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DailyCaller\/status\/1811386149459349510?\">July 11, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWhat\u2019s going on behind the scenes is the Biden campaign and many Democratic officials do believe that Barack Obama is quietly working behind the scenes to orchestrate this,\u201d Scarborough said. \u201cAnd if Joe Biden believes that, that\u2019s not going to get him out of the race any faster.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAny time David Axelrod attacks him, David Axelrod ensures that Joe Biden will dig himself in another day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAny time the pod bros say something nasty about Joe Biden, which they have repeatedly said nasty things about Joe Biden, before the debate, after the debate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery time they do that, he digs in a little bit further.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jon Favreau, a former Obama aide who hosts Pod Save America, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DanaBashCNN\/status\/1811088108013707628\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">corroborated<\/a> Democratic\u00a0donor and actor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trump-drops-bomb-george-clooney-slams-late-discovery-bidens-decline-get-politics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">George Clooney\u2019s<\/a> Wednesday New York Times <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/07\/10\/opinion\/joe-biden-democratic-nominee.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">op-ed<\/a> alleging Biden is in cognitive decline.<\/p>\n<p>David Axelrod, Obama\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/vulnerable-dems-midterm-strategy-attack-their-own-party\/\" title=\"Vulnerable Dems\u2019 Midterm Strategy: Attack Their Own Party\">chief campaign strategist<\/a>, called the op-ed \u201cdevastating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pathway to Joe Biden graciously stepping aside does not go through the Obamas or the Clintons.
