Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) said outcomes of this year\u2019s midterm elections will show whether Joe Biden should run for re-election in 2024. In a CNN interview Sunday, the Connecticut lawmaker said Democrats need to work harder to get Biden\u2019s policy agenda passed in Congress over the coming two years.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cI\u2019m gonna be very blunt and very honest with you,\u201d Blumenthal said. \u201cMy focus is totally on this November because I am running for re-election.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>This comes as recent polls show Democrats losing in the midterms as a rising red wav\u00a0 could flip both chambers of Congress for the Republican Party. Blumenthal said, however, he still wants to support Biden.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThis November is going too determine how successful President Biden is in the new two years,\u201d he voiced. \u201cHow strong he would be as a candidate. We need to elect more Democratic senators to ensure that he can appoint judges, he can achieve pro-choice legislation, he can continue the forward momentum of the economy and lower inflation. We are making tremendous progress.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;I will support President Biden.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Do you want him to run?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If he decides he wants to run.&#8221;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DanaBashCNN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@DanaBashCNN<\/a> presses <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenBlumenthal?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SenBlumenthal<\/a> about whether he will support President Joe Biden in the 2024 election. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNNSotu?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CNNSotu<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CNNSOTU?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#CNNSOTU<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3tScdYIirl\">pic.twitter.com\/3tScdYIirl<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 CNN (@CNN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CNN\/status\/1556276703340756993?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 7, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Blumenthal\u2019s remarks\u00a0came after a 51-50 vote in the Senate on Saturday to advance the Inflation Reduction Act, with Vice President Harris breaking the deadlock.
