 Mandel Ngan/AFP via GettyWithin President Joe Biden's first few answers of Thursday night's first 2024 presidential debate, speculation began ramping up among Democrats over the so-called nuclear option.
For not just months, but much of the past two years, Democrats have privately discussed the possibility of Biden "pulling an LBJ," as some operatives put it.
Just as former President Lyndon B. Johnson did in March 1968, Biden could, theoretically, call it quits on his re-election campaign.

 Kyle Mazza/Anadolu via Getty ImagesPresident Joe Biden went into the first presidential debate Thursday night with one main task: to prove to America that, at 81 years old, he's still up to the job.
According to many members of his party, he failed spectacularly.
The president, who rarely takes questions from the media or speaks off the cuff, sounded hoarse from the start. His campaign blamed a cold, but other stumbles were harder to write off. At one point, Biden bragged "we finally beat Medicare," a flub which Trump immediately hit him on. He struggled to finish some sentences coherently. Democrats were alarmed.

 Rebecca Noble/ReutersIndependent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. failed to make the cut for CNN's debate on Thursday night—so he planned to debate himself instead.
Libertarian former Fox Business host John Stossel announced Thursday evening that he would be "moderating" the alternate debate, which would be livestreamed on Elon Musk's X platform. A big screen next to Kennedy would air the actual debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and Kennedy would provide his own answers to the questions posed to Biden and Trump, Stossel said. As for the actual debating part of the alternate debate, Stossel didn't say.
In a post on X, RFK Jr. said he expected the main event to be nothing more than "arguments, name calling, accusations, and culture war issues- but no debate on most of the subjects that matter to Americans."

 Jim Watson/Getty ImagesUnless Donald Trump decides to back out at the last minute because President Joe Biden didn't agree to be tested for some mystery performance enhancers, CNN will host the first 2024 presidential debate on Thursday night.
The event will be moderated by longtime CNN anchors Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. The debate is also extremely early, historically speaking, taking place before either candidate has been officially nominated by their respective parties.
Tapper, who anchors the weekday news show The Lead and co-anchors the Sunday talk show State of the Union, joined CNN in 2012. Before his award-winning career at the cable news juggernaut, Tapper was a White House correspondent for ABC News and a frequent guest host of the network's Sunday show This Week. He's also a prolific novelist and cartoonist.
