Bill Maher urges Democrats to hold open convention, floats Gavin Newsom: ‘We’ve babied Joe Biden enough’
Fox News
Comedian Bill Maher pushed for Democrats to hold an open convention and replace President Biden on the ticket, floating Gavin Newsom as a replacement.
Nikolas Lanum is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
"As Joe Biden himself would say, 'Here's the deal': What happened at the debate last week wasn't a tragedy, it was a blessing in disguise," Maher wrote.
He suggested that bringing in a new candidate plays into one of the defining characteristics of 21st-century American culture: People like what is "new." Maher backed his claim by suggesting former President Obama's youth helped propel him to victory. Voters, he noted, did not have an "endlessly long record to pick over."
