WATCH: Nikki Haley Says Biden Making It to 86 ‘Not Something That I Think Is Likely’
Republican Candidate Nikki Haley Predicts Biden Won’t Make it Through Second Term
Former ambassador to the United Nations and Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley has made a bold prediction about President Joe Biden’s future. She believes that he won’t make it through a second term, which could make the 2024 election a referendum on Vice President Kamala Harris.
Haley stated in an interview with Fox News that “if you vote for Joe Biden, you really are counting on a President Harris, because the idea that he would make it until 86 years old is not something that I think is likely.” Biden officially announced his bid for the 2024 race on Tuesday with a video announcement, but he has not held a live event with Harris.
Trump Also Takes Aim at Biden’s Age
Former president and 2024 candidate Donald Trump also mocked Biden’s age this week. He suggested that the pre-recorded announcement was meant to conceal Biden’s frequent displays of confusion during live events. “You’d think at least one time he’d get up and say, ‘I’m running for president, where am I going, where the hell am I going, I want to get out,'” Trump mocked, walking around and pretending to be lost and confused.
Biden is often caught on video searching for exits and appearing confused when he ends speeches. The GOP candidates’ poking fun at Biden’s age comes as many in the president’s own party worry about his ability to serve a second term. A recent report showed that Biden works few hours and often takes off weekends.
Low Support from Within His Own Party
The Washington Post recently interviewed Democratic voters who said the president’s frequent verbal slip-ups and physical stumbles are raising questions about whether he should run for a second term. Biden faces the lowest support from within his own party for a second term among modern presidents. Just 38 percent of Democrats said the party should nominate Biden for reelection, compared with 57 percent who want to find another plausible candidate, according to an average of polls conducted throughout his first term published by the Post on Monday. Trump had 70 percent of the Republican Party’s support for a reelection bid.
