Conservatives floated a new theory amid reports that Biden's chief of staff Ron Klain plans to resign in the coming weeks.
Reactions to reports of Klain's departure quickly poured in on social media on Saturday, with Gaetz offering his theory on what Klain's departure could mean for Biden's future.
Representative Matt Gaetz, a Florida Republican, alongside an inset of White House chief of staff Ron Klain. Gaetz said reports that Klain plans to resign from the White House proves that Democrats are ready to move on from President Joe Biden.He tweeted that that he believes this indicates Democrats' readiness to move away from Biden in favor of other potential candidates in the 2024 presidential race.
Although Biden has said he plans to run for reelection, some Democrats have called for him to retire at the end of his first term—raising concerns about his age and approval rating, which has ticked up since last summer when high gas prices and inflation bogged down his popularity. "This is the key tell that what I said last week is likely true - the Deep State is taking out Biden," the GOP lawmaker tweeted. He referred to ainterview in which he speculated that Democrats could use the classified documents probe to"take out" Biden ahead of the 2024 race.
