Biden said at his campaign fundraiser in Massachusetts that Trump cannot be allowed to win next year’s election.
President of the United States Joe Biden says he’s not sure if he’ll seek another term if the former president Donald Trump would not run for president in the 2024 election.
Biden told about it at his campaign fundraiser in Massachusetts.
– If Trump didn’t try [presidentiksi]I’m not sure I would, he said.
– We cannot let him win, Biden continued.
Biden has long considered himself the best chance to protect the United States from another Trump administration, writes CNN. At the core of Biden’s speeches in the upcoming presidential elections, it is above all about defending democracy.
In several recently published polls, Trump has stronger support than Biden. For example CNN’s according to a poll conducted less than a month ago, Trump would beat Biden if the presidential election were held now.
Trump’s popularity has remained stable despite the fact that he is accused in several criminal trials. Trump is the overwhelming early favorite in the Republican primaries, but the verdict before the presidential candidate is chosen at the caucus in July could still change the dynamics.
Biden’s problem is age and events in the Middle East
For many voters, the biggest problem with Biden is his age. 81-year-old Biden is the oldest sitting president of the United States. He would be 82 when the next season starts and 86 when it ends. Once considered old Ronald Reagan was 69 years old when he became president. On the other hand, Trump and Biden have only a three-year age difference, meaning that Trump would be 78 years old if he were elected president in next year’s elections.
Biden’s recent popularity has been significantly damaged by Israel’s military operations in Gaza. After the terrorist attack by Hamas, Israel has retaliated by forcefully bombing Gaza.
