Joe Biden Must 'Step Down,' Rob Reiner Says, 'Stop Fucking Around'

Joe Biden is touring Pennsylvania today in an effort to get his reelection campaign back on track, but here in Hollywood, the president just lost another major high-profile donor after his June 27 debate debacle.

Just over a week after hosting a fundraiser for Vice President Kamala Harris for incumbents, Rob Reiner called on President Biden to “step aside.”

Calling the 81-year-old president a man who served the nation with “honor, decency and dignity,” the American President Watchmen director Damon Lindelof, Netflix’s Reed Hastings and Abigail Disney all pleaded with Biden last week to drop out of the race. Like the Watchmen showrunner and others, Reiner believes saving American democracy from Donald Trump is more important than seeing the sometimes uncertain and disjointed Biden stay in his final bid for the White House.

It’s time to stop messing around. If the convict wins, we will lose our democracy. Joe Biden has served the United States with honor, decency, and dignity. It’s time for Joe Biden to resign.
