The new challenge of the Senate over whether to stay or leave Biden
A group of Democrats in the US Senate have reacted to the proposal of some of their fellow party representatives to remove Biden from the 2024 US presidential election and call the attempt to introduce a new candidate in this competition a wrong move. |
According to the report of Fars News Agency International Group, the Democratic representatives of the Senate strongly rejected the intra-party criticism based on the weak position of “Joe Biden”, the President of the United States during the election polls, and expressed the concern of some of the representatives are considered very destructive because of the possibility of his defeat in the second round of the presidential election. Axelrod, the senior political adviser of the Obama era, former US president, has announced about Biden’s low chances of winning the elections again and stated that even his chances of winning the US presidential elections again are not 50-50.
However, the majority of the Democrats in the Senate, whose political future is tied to the fate of Biden in the elections, are in no way surprised by the statements of Axelrod and other opponents of Biden that his chances of winning the 2024 elections
“Senator Richard Blumenthal”, the Democratic representative of Connecticut, has stated in support of Joe Biden: “There is currently no replacement for Joe Biden.” I do not see; Because I think that Biden is in a very good state mentally and he is very sharp, knowledgeable and extremely tactful in very sensitive issues such as Israel and the country’s internal challenges.
Blumenthal stated: If all the Democrats stand behind Biden and don’t keep their eye on another person for candidacy, I think Biden can easily defeat Donald Trump in the election.
Democratic senators say that talking about an alternative to Biden as their main candidate in the presidential election, with only a few weeks left before the presidential primaries, will lead to the defeat of the Democratic Party.
These statements are made while most polls show that the majority of Democratic voters prefer someone else as their party’s primary candidate for the presidential election. to choose Nevertheless, the Democratic legislators of the Senate decided from the very beginning that they all should unite in support of Behid and refrain from any discussions and comments to remove him.
Even US Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, even when Biden fell behind in the New York Times/Sinai College poll in the five so-called “battle states”, i.e. Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and Pennsylvania, He rejected the discussion of replacing Biden with someone and expressed his opposition. He has sounded the alarm among other Democrats and stated: I believe Joe Biden will win the 2024 presidential election. He will beat Donald Trump and I’m sure people are aware of all the good things Biden has done for different states.
John Tester, another senator in support of Biden, questioned the results of the conducted polls and said: The results of the current polls cannot be believed. , because there is one more year left until the election.
However, the results of these polls have created an opportunity for Biden’s critics within the Democratic Party. from the 2024 presidential election to make some fundamental changes within the party.
Axelrod called his old age the most important factor in reducing Biden’s chances in the elections. And he suggests that this time the issue of Biden’s resignation from the presidency should be examined in the New York Times/Sinai College poll. He then states that considering that he is entering the age of 81, Biden should decide on his re-candidacy and see if it is wise or not and if his re-candidacy is in his own interest or in the interest of the country.
In this regard, Rutgers University political science professor Ross K. Baker points out that Biden is not facing a serious primary challenger in the 2024 election and any attempt at this stage to Democratic presidential reshuffle throws the party into disarray. According to him, Axelrod’s statements about Biden are not useful for the Democrats in any way politically.
He describes his ineligibility to participate in the presidential election as a completely stupid act from a political point of view. His statements come from the fact that the Democratic representatives do not have any suitable option to replace Biden in the current situation.
Some Democratic senators also criticized Axelrod’s statements. They say, as long as the activities related to the election campaign have not started in earnest, there is no reason to worry about the results of the polls.
Currently, Phillips, a Democratic member of the US House of Representatives from Minnesota, is considered to be Biden’s only rival in the Democratic primaries. Previously, Phillips’ campaign for the 2020 US presidential election in support of Joe Biden received a lot of luck and attention.
