Charlamagne tha God is a sharp guy, and I think that his opinion of Joe Biden hasn't been a good one for quite some time, despite Charlamagne being on the left.
Who can forget what Biden said to him during his 2020 interview on Charlamagne's show during the campaign? That was after Biden made the infamous "You aint' black" statement.

How dare you black folks not know you're supposed to vote for me, Joe said. Yikes, but that's the Democrats, thinking that you owe them. After the backlash, Biden claimed Charlamagne was being a "wise guy," and that he "baited him."
Since then, Charlamagne hasn't been shy about calling Biden out, including talking about his possible dementia because he saw him "talking to a ghost," referencing Biden trying to talk to Rep. Jackie Walorski who had died the month before. He's also said he thought former President Donald Trump is appealing to young black male voters because he's "actually talking to young, Black male voters, he’s directing ads toward them.”
He also asked Kamala Harris who the real president was in 2021, showing that he knew there was a big problem. Kamala Harris didn't like that at all.
FLASHBACK: In 2021, a staffer attempted to shut down an awkward interview in which Charlamagne asks Kamala Harris, "Who's the real president of this country?"

I could go on at great length but he truly capped it off this week with what he had to say about Biden. He knows Biden is in deep trouble, and he wants him out of the race.

"This is Biden's ego talking," Charlagmagne declared. "If you think there are other people that can beat him, step aside, all right....I know he thinks he's got this in the bag, but the polls say otherwise."
"I want Biden stepping in to beat Trump the way I want him stepping in to defend me at a bar fight. I appreciate you caring, but I don't like our chances," he said.
"See, the facts are Biden is not getting any younger," he explained. "He's not going to get any more popular, and he's not getting a new running mate." Ooh, shot across the bow at Kamala Harris as well. "Give America the ultimate Christmas gift and step aside," he said speaking directly to Biden.
Charlamagne is reading the polls, and he's seeing things are not looking good; he knows what a weak and incoherent candidate Biden is. He's honest, and he knows other people are seeing what he's seeing.
The NY Times/Sienna Poll showed part of the problem for Biden: 22 percent of black voters in the swing states said that they would support Trump over Biden. I always urge caution at this point on polls, far out still, etc. But if that's even close to reality, that would spell doom for Biden.
