How anxious are Democrats concerning the 2024 election? So anxious that one columnist is already questioning aloud if they might have been higher off sticking with the mentally compromised President Joe Biden as their candidate.
Plenty of folks predicted {that a} column similar to this may be written in some unspecified time in the future, however nobody anticipated it this quickly.
This can be a calm preview of the utter chaos and infighting that may happen amongst Democrats if Donald Trump beats Kamala Harris within the election, which increasingly more persons are starting to anticipate.
Harlan Ullman writes at The Hill:
What if Joe Biden was the higher candidate all alongside?
With the Nov. 5 election simply over a fortnight away, right here is an intriguing thought experiment.
By most accounts, the election continues to be a horse race too near name. However though Vice President Kamala Harris rapidly assumed the presidential mantle from Joe Biden and put in place a powerful start-up, October has not been notably form to her. Donald Trump has closed the electoral gaps, and a few imagine he’s really main.
Regardless of who wins, we now have to ask: Would President Biden have been a greater candidate and selection regardless of affected by the results of age and 81 years? Additional, suppose that the disastrous June 27 debate with Trump had not taken place, or that Biden had been firing on all cylinders that night time. Would Biden have been compelled to withdraw? And whether or not Harris loses or wins, some will ask whether or not Biden would possibly nonetheless have been a greater candidate.
