A Trump campaign spokesperson gave Democrats a far-fetched suggestion that even a Newsmax host knocked back immediately.
“My advice to the Democrat Party would be total surrender now,” Caroline Sunshine, deputy communications director for the Trump campaign, said on the conservative network Wednesday.
“You are stuck with Joe Biden at the top of your ticket, and anybody that you can dream of replacing him with cannot beat President Trump, as we just saw in the latest round of polls,” she added. “So my advice would be save yourself millions of dollars, do the right thing for the country and just sit this entire presidential election cycle out.”
Newsmax host Rob Finnerty laughed and noted, “Right, and the American people will vote on November the 5th, and we’ll find out, but I don’t think the Democrats are going to sit this election out.”
Sunshine made the same claim on Fox News Wednesday and drew a similar reaction from anchor Bret Baier.
“Pretty sure that’s not gonna happen,” he told her.
Democrats have been scrambling to figure out a path forward after President Joe Biden’s shocking performance at last week’s presidential debate against Donald Trump.
Some have called for Biden to end his reelection campaign and allow a younger candidate to face off against Trump in November.
