Trump and Harris prevented Democrats from replacing Joe Biden on 2024 ticket, says report
A New Report Predicts Democrats Will Nominate President Joe Biden in 2024
An analysis from Politico’s senior political columnist and politics bureau chief, Jonathan Martin, challenges the widely held belief among Republicans that Democrats will abandon President Joe Biden in the next election. According to Martin, two key factors ensure Biden’s position as the Democratic nominee: concerns over the strength of former President Donald Trump and the perceived weakness of Vice President Kamala Harris.
The Centrality of Trump and the Determination to Block His Return
Martin emphasizes that the centrality of Trump and the Democrats’ determination to prevent his return to power is what protects Biden within his own party. He compares the protective barrier around the Biden White House to a moat filled with classy, Trump-branded alligators. No prominent Democrat dares to question the president, as doing so would risk weakening him and inadvertently aiding Trump.
The Challenge of Harris
Martin also highlights the challenge posed by Vice President Kamala Harris. He reveals that last year, many elected Democrats privately expressed their hope that Biden would step aside. However, they refrained from voicing this sentiment publicly, fearing that it would assist Trump and invite questions about their support for Harris.
Furthermore, a recent poll indicates that Harris lacks significant support among the general public, with only one-fifth of voters considering her a top contender for the Democratic nomination.
Martin concludes that the opportunity to replace Biden as the Democratic candidate has passed, as there is currently no internal force within the Democratic Party capable of challenging him.
How does the centrality of former President Donald Trump contribute to President Biden’s stronghold within the Democratic Party?
In a recent analysis by Jonathan Martin, Politico’s senior political columnist and politics bureau chief, the widely held belief among Republicans that Democrats will abandon President Joe Biden in the next election is challenged. According to Martin, there are two key factors that ensure Biden’s position as the Democratic nominee: concerns over the strength of former President Donald Trump and the perceived weakness of Vice President Kamala Harris.
One of the main reasons Biden is protected within his own party, as Martin emphasizes, is the centrality of Trump and the Democrats’ determination to prevent his return to power. Martin compares the protective barrier around the Biden White House to a moat filled with classy, Trump-branded alligators. No prominent Democrat dares to question the president, as doing so would risk weakening him and inadvertently aiding Trump.
Additionally, Martin highlights the challenge posed by Vice President Kamala Harris. He reveals that last year, many elected Democrats privately expressed their hope that Biden would step aside. However, they refrained from voicing this sentiment publicly, fearing that it would assist Trump and invite questions about their support for Harris.
Furthermore, a recent poll indicates that Harris lacks significant support among the general public, with only one-fifth of voters considering her a top contender for the Democratic nomination.
Based on these factors, Martin concludes that the opportunity to replace Biden as the Democratic candidate has passed, as there is currently no internal force within the Democratic Party capable of challenging him.
This analysis challenges the commonly held assumption that Democrats will abandon President Joe Biden in the next election. The centrality of former President Donald Trump and the determination to prevent his return to power, as well as concerns about Vice President Kamala Harris, contribute to Biden’s stronghold within his party. While some elected Democrats may have had reservations about Biden in the past, the lack of support for Harris and the absence of a viable challenger within the party solidify Biden’s position as the Democratic nominee for the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
