In the wake of Biden’s disastrous presidency, American voters are reminded that Trump has led in stopping illegal immigration, which could include foreign terrorists hateful of the United States. He has also been strong against allowing male-bodied athletes to invade girls’ sports.
2024 general election polls in November showed that Trump had a massive lead over Biden. This has left the liberals scrambling. Michelle Obama and California Gov. Gavin Newsom are mentioned as possible last-minute replacements for Biden. Other potential candidates powerful with the insiders include Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and the same-sex married Pete Buttigieg, the Transportation Secretary who bungled the electric car issue.
Democrat political insiders have compared their dilemma to a “five-alarm fire,” but Biden and his determined wife Jill refused to step aside. Many Democrats who disapproved of funding foreign wars instead of domestic priorities are jumping ship: Biden’s advantage over Trump eroded among black voters from a 78-point advantage to only 49 points.
A poll by ABC News/Ipsos announced that 76% of American adults feel our country is headed in the wrong direction, while only 23% see us going in the right direction. On the key issues of crime, inflation, and immigration, voters trust Republicans more than Democrats.
We are under a year from the presidential election, and only a few months before early voting begins in some states. Worsening foreign crises and deepening economic problems, combined with an inevitable further decline in his mental capacity, mean that Biden’s 2024 prospects look dire.
Biden failed to file paperwork to be on the ballot in New Hampshire, while an obscure Minnesota congressman did file there, reminiscent of how Minnesota Sen. Eugene McCarthy chased the Democrat incumbent President Lyndon B. Johnson from the race in 1968. Biden is counting on support from black primary voters in South Carolina to renominate him, but a deal between Obama and an alternative could force Biden to withdraw.
