In the wake of his announcement that he would seek a second term, President Joe Biden’s job approval ratings have been consistently declining, making his re-election path even narrower.
A recent poll conducted by DailyMail.com and J.L. Partners revealed that 71 percent of Americans, including 49 percent of Democrats, believe Biden is too elderly to continue serving as president. In addition, 52 percent of Americans believe they are in a worse position now than before Biden became president, according to the survey.
“There are few things that unite American voters, but there is one: the belief that Biden is too old to be president,” James Johnson, one of the founders of J.L. Partners, said to the DailyMail.
“Decisive margins across all age groups, ethnic groups, and political parties agree with the sentiment. And worryingly for the current president, those most likely to say they are worse off under Biden’s policies include groups with disproportionate impact come to an election: Independent voters and 45-64-year-olds. Though he managed to avoid his age becoming a pivotal issue in 2020, it looks set to be the defining hesitation in voters’ minds next year,” Johnson said.
Another political insider has expressed the increasingly prevalent opinion that the aging President Joe Biden will not be physically or mentally able to complete his current term, let alone a second term if he is re-elected in 2020.
In an interview with “Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla,” Tudor Dixon, the GOP nominee who lost a close race to Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer last fall, stated that members of the president’s party are circling him “like vultures” because they believe his political career will shortly “end.”
“It’s like vultures. I really think that. I was talking about this the other day. I said it’s sort of like vultures circling him, like they know that it’s close to the end. What end? I’m not sure. Is it just the end of the presidency? Is it the end of something more? I don’t know what they think, but it really feels as though we’re being duped,” she told Failla.
She also predicted that two additional Democrats would run for the 2024 nomination.
“Like everybody’s going, oh, you’re running against this guy with these really low poll numbers. But then it’s like, Gavin Newsom is going to come up with Gretchen Whitmer on his arm and they’re going to come out as a team, and everybody’s going to go, yeah, I really like them. They look good,” she said.
A veteran political observer and analyst stated earlier this month that he believes Biden will not survive the upcoming primaries and will be forced to withdraw from the contest.
Hugh Hewitt made his audacious prediction this week after Biden reportedly tripped over a sandbag while delivering the commencement address to the graduating class of the Air Force Academy in Colorado.
“Hewitt sees the race shaping up similarly to the 1968 one when then-President Lyndon Johnson told the nation he would not seek re-election after barely winning the first Democratic primary contest,” The Western Journal reported.
If re-elected, Biden will be 82 years old on inauguration day in January 2025.
He will be 86 years old when his term expires. Several medical professionals and other observers have repeatedly observed a significant decline in his physical and mental abilities and have predicted that the decline will continue.
