PA Governor Comments On Discussion With Biden During Radio Interview
Well, what do you know — the dam finally broke, and guess who's floating down the river in a leaky canoe pretending it’s still 2020? That would be Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, now playing the role of “reluctant truth-teller” after spending months (if not years) pretending Joe Biden was mentally spry enough to lead a nation, much less tie his own shoes.
In a stunning burst of postmortem honesty on The Breakfast Club, Shapiro admitted what the Democratic Party knew long before the June 2024 CNN debate turned into a nationally televised eldercare incident: Joe Biden was cooked, and Kamala Harris was no better. The party had tied itself to an anchor and then acted shocked when it sank.
Democrat Governor Josh Shapiro, who endorsed Kamala Harris, says she knew Biden was unfit for office:

Let’s not gloss over this — a sitting Democratic governor, one who prides himself on “engaging conservatives,” says he sat down with the president of the United States at a coffee shop to deliver the bad news like a campaign intern returning a broken lawn sign. And what was Biden’s reaction to being told Pennsylvania — a state he allegedly won in 2020 — was slipping through his fingers?
“How’s it going?”
“It’s not going well.”
That’s the kind of exchange you expect between coworkers at a failing startup, not between a president and a key swing-state governor during an election year. But by that point, the gears were already grinding. Harris knew. Shapiro knew. The donor class knew. Everyone with a functioning frontal lobe knew. But nobody did anything until the CNN debate lit the barn on fire — and even then, they hesitated. Because the real priority wasn’t truth, or stability, or even electability. It was power, plain and simple.
And that’s the pattern. Whether it’s dragging Biden across the finish line with teleprompters and handlers, or rallying around a Virginia AG candidate who daydreams about political opponents losing their children to gunfire, the party’s guiding star remains the same: protect the machine, no matter the cost. The media, of course, acted as the hydraulic press, keeping the truth under wraps until it became undeniable — or useful.
That’s why this latest confession from Shapiro isn’t bravery. It’s cleanup. It’s narrative maintenance. It’s pre-spin for the 2028 cycle, where he may very well try to step in as the reasonable Democrat who knew Biden was faltering, but just couldn’t say it out loud until after it no longer mattered.
