I saw Oprah and Taylor Swift mentioned but did not know that Steph Curry was a part of this proposal.
Americans generally don’t like it when money is used as a weapon to squeeze someone into making a decision. That’s especially true when those in control of the money cannon seem to have terrible ideas. The co-founder of a new PAC that would provide seed money for a replacement candidate is a crypto billionaire. Donors have frantically called JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon to see if he would agree to run. One of the craziest proposals maybe in political history, co-authored by a venture capitalist donor, calls for a “blitz primary” that includes weekly candidate forums where Taylor Swift, Oprah Winfrey, Tim McGraw, and Stephen Curry would moderate, with associated “content” produced by Jeffrey Katzenberg. It’s almost unbelievable that, in trying to prod an 81-year-old who had trouble maintaining a consistent thought a couple of weeks ago, these elites are the ones who look painfully out of touch with the American voter.

Why the Bid to Push Out Biden Is Losing
It’s perceived, rather correctly, as coming from an out-of-touch elite donor class without public legitimacy.
