What’s Happening:
The next presidential election is over a year away. But voters might have already decided who will occupy the White House. Republicans are joining the primaries, almost every day it seems. But can any of these conservative figures gain enough steam to shut down the liberal establishment and give old Joe his walking papers?
We know Joe Biden is unfit for office. But the liberal media and establishment Democrats will do everything in their power to ensure he stays in the Oval Office. That doesn’t mean he’s got the 2024 race in the bag, though. A new poll took a close look at the current contender’s chances. And Biden should be very worried.
From Fox News:
Trump tops the list with 43%, followed by Ron DeSantis at 28%, Nikki Haley and Mike Pence at 7% each, and Greg Abbott and Liz Cheney at 2% each…
While 37% of Democratic primary voters want to keep Biden as their party’s nominee, a majority of 53% says they would like someone else to run…
That support for Biden pales in comparison to what Trump received four years ago. In February 2019, at this same point in the election cycle, 72% of GOP registered voters wanted to keep Trump as their party’s nominee – nearly double Biden’s current support.
Democrats claim they approve of Joe Biden’s performance, according to the new poll. Yet only 37% of them actually want him to run for re-election. Eh, your confidence is betraying you, Democrats! What group says they approve of their man but demand he gets replaced?
The left says they support old Joe, but the numbers don’t add up. A staggering 53% of Democrats want someone else to run in 2024. That probably has something to do with Joe’s frailty, crumbling mental awareness, and overall inability to lead.
Meanwhile, Trump continues to dominate the GOP primaries. Only a handful of Republicans have so far attempted to challenge him. But none of the politicians currently running against him appear to have what it takes to shut him down.
Ron DeSantis is still his closest rival, but he has yet to announce a race. If he decides not to run, there is little chance any other candidate will be able to beat Trump. And if this poll holds, Democrats might be looking for someone other than Joe to take Trump on.
Regardless of what the pundits are saying, we might not be seeing a 2020 rematch after all.
Key Takeaways:
- Trump is leading the GOP primaries in a new Fox News poll.
- A shocking 53% of Democrats want someone other than Biden to run in 2024.
- Biden says he will run again, but has not officially launched a campaign.
