During his "My Take," Monday, "Varney & Co." host Stuart Varney discussed the growing number of Democrats who want Biden off the 2024 ticket after Rep. Dean Phillips, D-Minn., argued the party is facing "disastrous consequences" if the president does not face primary competition.
: If ever there was a clear indication that Democrats want Biden off the ticket, look no further than Rep. Dean Phillips.
He's a Democrat, from Minnesota.
He's very open about it. Keeping Biden on the ticket, he says, would be disastrous.

It's no accident he appeared on CBS' prime political show.
They certainly knew what he was going to say. They wanted him to say it on the air.
Phillips is 54, and he's been in Congress for just 4 years.

In poll after poll Democrats demand a different candidate.
The president's frailty is another rallying call to Democrats. He's just returned from his beach vacation.
He is outpacing all modern presidents when it comes to time off.
Democrats want a more vigorous, engaged candidate because, it's very hard for anyone to see Joe Biden, holding down the presidency for another 6 years.

The talk of a replacement will get louder. His handlers can't protect him from stumbles, gaffes, and senior moments.
It's just a matter of time 'til Gavin Newsom makes his move.
