Former President Obama’s senior adviser David Axelrod said he thinks President Biden has a “50-50 shot” of winning in the 2024 election after advising Biden to consider dropping out of the race.
“I think he has a 50-50 shot here, but no better than that, maybe a little worse,” Axelrod told New York Times’ Maureen Dowd in an interview. “He thinks he can cheat nature here, and it’s really risky. They’ve got a real problem if they’re counting on Trump to win it for them. I remember Hillary doing that, too.”
Axelrod’s comments come shortly after the former senior Obama adviser said it would be “wise” for Biden to consider dropping out of the race, citing concerns about Biden’s age and ability to effectively lead. A recent poll also showed Biden trailing Trump in five out of six battleground states.
But, the column notes, “Axelrod drew Biden’s ire because he urged the president to consider stopping at one term.” Axelrod earlier this month suggested that Biden needs to decide if it’s still wise to run following a recent poll showing Biden trailing former President Trump in key swing states.
“I don’t care about them thinking I’m a pr— — that’s fine,” Axelrod told Dowd. “I hope they don’t think the polls are wrong because they’re not.”
It doesn’t really matter what the polls show. We know that the Dems will do anything to stay in power – like they’ve said over and over – “By any means necessary.” Which they have already proved by rigging the election.
Biden has 50-20 chance for White House
Methinks they are playing the safe game either he will or he wont, yes/no . up/down,…. personally I believe they are being overly optimistic,…. he will be Kicked to the curb, and land in the gutter
Unless we have a lot more brain dead people in this Country than I think, Biden will get booted if he were to run. Sorry but he is a forgetful old man who has no business trying to run the government. Just for info I am a tired old man just nine days older than Biden.
