Extremely vulnerable first-term Democrat Rep. Gabe Vasquez continues to flee the press over whether he believes Joe Biden should leave the presidential ticket following what all sides call a disastrous CNN debate.
Last weekend, Vasquez’s team tried to skirt the question to the Santa Fe New Mexican when asked if he stills supports Biden.
When pressed by Fox News, Vasquez, who is attempting to distance himself from Biden, said he “can make his own decisions about his own campaign,” refusing to endorse him.
Now, when Vasquez’s spokesperson was pressed on if “he believes Biden should stay in the race or step aside” or about “anything he’s hearing from constituents,” the spokesperson reportedly gave “no comment.”
The interaction was also reported by Politico, which wrote, “A spokesperson for battleground House Ag Democrat Gabe Vasquez (D-N.M.) said ‘no comment’ when MA asked if Biden should stay in the race and what Vasquez is hearing from his constituents about the matter.”
The National Republican Congressional Committee’s (NRCC) spokeswoman, Delanie Bomar, wrote following the Democrat’s uncertainty on his support for Biden, “It is unacceptable that Vasquez is trying to run a basement campaign. He must make his position clear, and he must do it today.”
Other vulnerable Democrats, such as Rep. Angie Craig of Minnesota, have taken concrete stances on Biden, saying, “Given what I saw and heard from the President during last week’s debate in Atlanta, coupled with the lack of a forceful response from the President himself following that debate, I do not believe that the President can effectively campaign and win against Donald Trump.”
“President Biden needs to show that he is fit to lead the free world and demonstrate his fighting spirit,” said vulnerable Democrat Rep. Don Davis of North Carolina. “If he’s going to stay in, he needs to step up.”
“Another vulnerable House Ag Democrat, Marie Gluesenkamp Pérez (D-Wash.), told local media outlet KATU last week she believes Trump will win the election in November after Biden’s debate performance,” Politico further reported.
While battleground district Democrats appear to be taking a stance against Biden, Vasquez, who is a close ally of Biden, has refused to say whether he should stay in the presidential race.
A recent leaked Democrat poll shows a shift from Biden winning New Mexico prior to the debate to Biden now losing New Mexico to Trump by 0.5 percent. Even far-left Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has cast doubt on whether Biden will win the Land of Enchantment if he remains in the running.
It takes courage for Vasquez to tell Biden to drop out; courage is something Vasquez lacks. He didn’t have the courage to appear in court following his traffic violation.
Vasquez has a history of running—- first from the police and now from the press.
LOL. True.
Good one, Paul!
But how would Vasquez react to an endorsement from Biden?
Vasquez is no Spartacus.
We all know what Vasquez is about.
Vasquez, you can run, but you can’t hide.
Vasquez character is flawed like the rest of his peers in the DC. Half the swamp wants Biden out the other half are not going to side either way, the buck stops with Biden and Harris they need the bucks because donations are dwindling. Lots can happen before November I believe it too late to save the Democratic Party, they have sold their souls to the devil for all their lying, cheating and corruption. As the old saying goes” Give them enough rope and they’ll hang themselves. “
Time to break your silence, Gabe, if you dare.
Waiting……
Just like the Dems, slap each other on the back and laugh all the way to the bank, until one of them shows their true colors. Then they all scatter like roaches when the light gets turned on. Gabe Vasquez is no different.
Just heard ol’ Gabe voted to keep illegals from having to register to vote.
Sedition?????
