In this content, there is a focus on the current state of President Joe Biden’s struggling campaign, with reports of growing Democratic opposition and calls for him to exit the 2024 race. Despite the mounting pressure from Democrats, Biden remains publicly defiant while privately his family is discussing what ending his re-election bid might entail. Vice President Kamala Harris’ allies are also preparing for a potential campaign if she were to take over the party’s ticket.
Thirteen more congressional Democrats called on Biden to drop out of the race, bringing the total to 35, while Biden received a boost from Capitol Hill as BOLD PAC endorsed his campaign. Despite ongoing health issues, Biden is still active in his campaign, attacking former President Donald Trump and reiterating his commitment to stay in the race. Privately, discussions about a potential exit plan are underway within Biden’s family.
There is rising speculation about Harris potentially becoming the party’s nominee if Biden steps aside, with some Democrats already mapping out her potential presidential campaign apparatus. Despite the negative polling and forecasts, there is an acknowledgment that things can change rapidly in politics, drawing parallels to past instances where a party thought their candidate had no path to victory but ultimately prevailed. In light of these uncertainties, it is highlighted that the current presidential campaign could see a significant shift in interest and engagement from the electorate, potentially leading to unexpected outcomes.
