He\u2019s going to be drawing Democratic votes to himself. That is a genuine threat to Biden. There are a lot of people who are looking at Biden and saying, \u201cI don\u2019t like what I\u2019m seeing here. Maybe RFK Jr. is the moderate.

If you\u2019re the one complaining about the third-party candidate, it means you are losing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What\u2019s amazing for Biden is that all of this would have been perfectly preventable if he had not steered directly toward his hard left, if he had not moved toward Bernie Sanders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And yet, he continues to steer to his left. His advisers seem to believe if he doesn\u2019t, he is going to lose the election. Joe Biden, like the rest of the Democratic Party, has bought into the 2012 Barack Obama myth that you can steer directly to your left, cobble together a coalition of dispossessed minorities and white college-educated liberal women and win an overwhelming victory despite losing independents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It didn\u2019t work for Democrats in 2016.
