Ari Emanuel, a prominent Democratic donor from Hollywood, made a passionate address at the Aspen Ideas Festival about the current predicament facing Democrats in relation to President Biden.
His emotions were evident as he expressed frustration towards Biden, his administration, and the media for not being transparent with voters sooner.
Additionally, Emanuel acknowledged the practical challenges involved in replacing Biden on the ticket, citing the extensive election processes already underway and pointing out the legal complexities associated with such a move.
Partial transcript:
HOST: Democrats are jumping out of the window. What are you thinking?
ARI EMANUEL: Well, I’m pissed off at the founding fathers. They had the start date of 35, they just didn’t give us an end date. Well, everybody dies,m so they didn’t have to give an end date.
I don’t want to deal with Donald Trump and whether what he said was true or false — it’s a given, certain things. I’m not gonna talk about CNN.
Here’s what Biden did. He said he was gonna run for one term and he was doing it to restore democracy. He now runs for a second term. That’s the first bit of malarkey, as he would say.
Then he says that this is a quintessential thought about saving democracy and it’s so important, etc. His cohorts have told us that he’s healthy for over a year, and I think it was two weeks ago, there was an article in the Wall Street Journal.
I had a father who died at 92 but at 81, I took away his car. It’s a very simple test for me. If you were driving from downtown Beverly Hills to Malibu, would you want Biden to do it at night? Would you want Trump to do it in a night? We want neither.
If the answer is neither, you cannot have them running a $27 trillion company called the United States.
And then we had a situation where he went to France for the 80th anniversary of D-Day and talked about the sacrifice that those soldiers made for us. His cohorts have said he’s the only one that has defeated Trump.
Donald Trump said, “I alone can save — make all these problems go away.” And now Biden is saying, “I’m the only one that can beat Trump.” Seems like it’s pretty similar here.
And we have a great bench in the Democratic Party. So we’re looking at a man who is saying the other guy is a liar, and he’s telling us malarkey, his people are telling us malarkey, but we’re in a very bad problem.
Watch the video below:
The level of fear and panic exhibited by individuals like Emanuel is truly astonishing.
He fully grasps the severity of this issue for Democrats, and there are no simple solutions in sight.

We are NOT a “democracy”. STOP IT!!!
We have proof that Biden and his handlers have been lying about his cognizance. There is no proof of anything Trump has done, just Democrats conjecturing and so many anonymous sources. This administration lying to the public just shows how desperate they are to hold on to power. There were signs of Biden going down hill in his first year of his presidency. The democrats will do anything to hold into power and increase their power over the people. Why do you think they hate the 2A Why is the border wide open. Why are they defunding the police and allowing undeterred crime in big cities. Why are they protecting terrorists. The more chaos, the more reason for the government to step in and save the day. This means more control over the people and more taxes to fix the things that the government actually has instigated purposely They will not be happy until they control everything and only hand out pittance to their subjects. This is socialism and communism and fascism. None of these are healthy for a free people and country.
This guy donates to Democrat politicians , yet hasn’t “noticed” the physical & mental decline of Biden in the last 4 YEARS!
I saw it when he ran in the previous election! That’s why he was hiding in his basement & not doing interviews.
Democrats are so ignorant.
What bothers me is that these people are first figuring out how bad of shape Biden has been….. Biden did BETTER than I thought that he would in the debate…. I wonder if they will be able to figure out just how bad our so-called “media” has been LYING to them about not only Biden’s health, but about how bad Trump is….
I’ve had it up to here with all this Trump hatred. This man had the world dictators shaking in their boots.. he was getting the wall done. Now look at us!!! Biden is as lost in space as they come. His wife is desperate to hang on to being a first partner… she’s no lady. God help us and get them all the hell out!!!! We want our country back. People can’t even afford groceries anymore. The dems are a disgrace!!
