but here in la and other pricey metropolitan areas, many gen x'ers say they have to pay as much as half half of their income just to get by in housing. back to >>kron 4 is your local election headquarters. former house speaker nancy pelosi is now saying president biden must decide quickly on whether or not to run for reelection. for more now, kron 4 stephanie lin speaks with one of our political analysts. >>perspective on how this latest news could shape the messaging around both presidential campaigns is nolan higdon cal state east bay communications. professor, good afternoon to you. good afternoon. all right. so to start off your campaign, success can often hinge on the rhetoric and the public's perception of the candidate. so before we get into the impact of pelosi statements today, could you walk us through your observations on president biden's response to his debate performance and how his team work to walk back concerns about his ability to serve. >>yeah, i think biden's response has been to try and

make it clear that he's he's not going to drop out and he's not considering it. but there are reasons to believe that he's not even sure about that he's put countless blass fundraising blast done a lot more interviews and he's been doing previously. so biden seems like someone who recognizes the fact that public perception has turned against him. and he is trying to change that public perception. but again, i i think he's well aware that he's fighting quite an uphill battle because it's it's not just fringe. voters were speaking out its major celebrities and supporters like george clooney, a handful of congress. people and even some billionaires from walmart and disney lineage have said they will no longer give money. so so biden's in in quite a predicament he's trying to to signal strength and confidence. but a lot of his behavior seems to indicate otherwise, ok, so let's talk about the other candidate in this race to donald trump. he faced. >>a lot of scrutiny. this year's criminally convicted, but still he somehow rallying the support of his party and voters as well of national

polls as you likely know, showed him pulling better than president biden immediately after the debate. so what do you think is happening here? >>you know, donald trump has really been able sustained taking some of these particularly on his legal troubles without it really affecting his polling. trump is very unique politician over the last 10, almost 10 years. we've seen the way he's been able to take something like a criminal charge, which would be a death sentence for most politicians and turned into a his supporters. feel that they are persecuted by the system. and so when they the legal system go after trump, it's just like the way they feel they feel the system is going after them when they go after him. and that's why he's able to improve in the polls. okay. well. >>going to turn now what happened this morning. we know that nancy pelosi, pelosi, she said that time is running out for president biden to run, but she didn't actually say explicitly that she'd endorse him for the white house. so how do you see that move

shaping the outlook for the president? >>you know, i think all of these politicians within the democratic party are in a position where, you know, anything they do will be used against them. if if you ahh, come out in support of joe biden and he loses, he'll get blamed for the loss. if you come out and say joe biden should drop out and then he loses, you'll get blamed for. that's a new week. and the if you call from the dropout, he does drop out. another candidate comes who loses? blame for that. so i think a lot of these democratic politicians or trying to just avoid the question publicly. but we do know from a lot of reporting a privately they're having a lot of com conversations. other consternation about joe biden remaining the candidate. >>and professor, you alluded to this next question a bit earlier and your last response. but we did mention that actor george clooney, he penned that op-ed calling for another candidate to come forward. so do you see that moving the needle at all for

democrats to decide to nominate someone else or even have kamala harris come forward. >>i think you have to certainly some impact. i can't say whether or harris will will become the nominee. i mean, let's be honest that this is a very truncated timeline for an election. you be taking over, you know, in mid-july for a november election. that's a really uphill battle. i don't know what politician is eager to be putin's in such a horrible position. having said that, american politics at the outcome of american politics, american campaigns, they rely heavily on funding and he started losing big donors and celebrities who can bring in big donors. it's really tough to justify yourself as the candidate. how are you going to able to afford

still several democrats expressing deep concern. >>president biden tries to map a path forward. i've never been more optimistic about america's chances. this morning the president delivered remarks so union leaders, a key voter base that propelled his path to victory in 2020 always had our back. >>we have your act. >>on capitol hill, the path forward isn't so simple for all democrats, many are publicly rallying behind the president. very much indeed, lisa, part of our our nominee, but not without expressing ongoing concerns about the president's ability to win against former president trump this november. i've expressed concerns. i do believe this is fundamentally his decision since the debate. election forecaster cook political report has moved 3 battleground states to lean republican wednesday. 2 more house democrats publicly called on president biden to drop out of the race. first new york congressman pat ryan,

then oregon congressman earl blumenauer up to the president to decide if he is going to run on msnbc. former speaker of the house nancy pelosi suggested the president reexamined his decision to run for reelection. a we're all encouraging him to to make that decision because time is running short. all eyes will be on the president thursday. he'll be holding his first press conference since the debate. >>nbc also confirming that they will be having a sit down interview with the president on monday. for more now on the latest in the 2024 presidential campaign kron four's justine waltman spoke our political analyst david mcewan. >>let's break this all down it is our political analyst david mcewan. thank you so much for joining us. david, appreciate your time. >>well, good afternoon. always a pleasure to see just you, too. let's start with a democrat. george clooney here withdrawing his support for

president biden to think that makes any difference. >>it is a another crack in the wall, if you will, that blue wall. the reason that's important is george clooney is visible. he's someone that you want to have out on the stump with you in the campaign. and he also is not just a, you know, a-lister in hollywood. he brings a lot with him in terms of granite pass in terms of other celebrities beyond movies into popular culture and to the sports world. and in that sense, he's always been very visible about his politics. it's a hugely. he said. he wrote the new york times. is it enough to george a or to joe biden out of the race? it's not a and the decision has been made. it's just a question of whether it looks like there's going to be any movement in the next 48 hours or piece doesn't help. that's for sure. >>so there's a highly anticipated news conference with president joe biden tomorrow. one of the headlines that i read is that his candidacy could hinge on this thursday press conference. i'm wondering going to be looking

for and how important is it really with the president face to face there with the media? >>yeah. let's think about the next 48 hours right? prince tomorrow. that's hugely important. it's a repeat of the debate performance. what will happen in the next 24 hours after that will be huge. that makes friday afternoon. very big because obviously the republicans are meeting in milwaukee next week. and when you're explaining you're losing. so if you look at what's happened here, joe biden, president biden has lost his mojo. any momentum? we had any big mo we he's lost that and the buzz around that is we are asking voters whether or they have pop. oppressions of whether they've anything about joe biden in the last 2 weeks since the debate and that he's showing kind of a cliff for a fall. and that's particularly important swing states. it's critically important with voter subsets, but it's democrats doing this to themselves as well. so the buzz for joe biden and his candidacy has gone down there trying to push out the timeline to make an the inevitable candidate were no

one else can come in. we don't see that if he messes the press conference tomorrow a and headed into friday. >>so there was any chance that biden could be replaced on the ticket, i mean, how does even work? it sounds like it can't be seamless. >>well, i wouldn't be saying let's let you don't want to have an open convention where your air, your dirty laundry, kamala harris, the vice president, gets first right of refusal. so if joe biden were to he would not want it open convention. any want to pass the baton is delegate. the vote their conscience but move over to the vice president. so that really narrows the path any other possible person. and we're seeing polling a related to kamala harris and how she would do which the biden team is, of course, a putting out there. but the timeline for all of this is pretty condensed, even though democrats don't have their convention until next month. but then voting begins the next month. after that, we start seeing battleground states like virginia, for example, can voting on september 20th. so there's not

a lot of time left >>and we have next week over next week is that republican convention right? presumptive nominee, donald trump going to be out there speaking and could be announcing his vice presidential pick. could you think is on the list? >>you know, i really think it's the wild card player to be named later, right? you know, we were talking about marco rubio. we're talking about a need. and so we're talking about doug burgum. all kind of standard bearers and and ohio's in important states. florida is an important state. doug burgum has a lot of money, but i think there's a wild card. could be someone close to donald trump. you can't rule out that he's going to throw a curveball in he's been largely silent. the reason you can't rule out that it's going occur ball, let's say the press conference doesn't go well and donald trump wants to get in the news cycle and pro and preempt joe biden. he would have the opportunity to do that by announcing vice presidential pick. the press conference fine. tomorrow joe biden stays in the despite what the pressure that keeps mounting on him and pushes

back than president. and build a suspense into next week because by wednesday, that nominee for the vice presidential candidacy for the republicans has to give a primetime address on >>what an exciting week of politics ahead. david mcewan, thank you so much for joining us. appreciate your time. thank you. nice to you too. the
