The warning lights are flashing red for Democrats about Joe Biden’s campaign.
Behind closed doors, the party faithful are worried sick.
And Democrats are panicking over this grim reality facing Joe Biden in the election.
Democrats are freaking out about Joe Biden’s campaign
The 2024 Election hasn’t played out like Democrats thought it would.
Former President Donald Trump’s campaign was supposed to be buried under an avalanche of criminal cases from Democrat prosecutors.
But Trump has held a narrow but consistent lead over President Joe Biden for months in the swing states that will decide the election and nationally.
And on the most important issues to voters, like inflation, immigration, and the economy, he has a commanding advantage over Biden.
Nothing Democrats have thrown at Trump has made a dent in his polling.
POLITICO published a report from anonymous Democrats titled “Dems in full-blown ‘freakout’ over Biden.”
Biden’s sagging poll numbers have the Democrat Party on edge behind closed doors.
“One adviser to major Democratic Party donors provided a running list that has been shared with funders of nearly two dozen reasons why Biden could lose, ranging from immigration and high inflation to the president’s age, the unpopularity of Vice President Kamala Harris and the presence of third-party candidates like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.,” POLITICO reported.
And the situation could continue to deteriorate politically for Biden this summer.
Trump’s Manhattan criminal case has concluded, and Hunter Biden’s trial for felony gun charges is set to begin.
“Donors ask me on an hourly basis about what I think,” the adviser told POLITICO. “So much easier to show them, so while they read it, I can pour a drink.”
“The list of why we ‘could’ win is so small I don’t even need to keep the list on my phone,” the adviser added.
Trump moving ahead of Biden in fundraising
Democrats and their media allies tried to comfort themselves by ignoring the polls and pointing to Biden’s fundraising advantage.
Big Tech, Hollywood, Wall Street, and Big Labor are pouring money into Biden’s campaign.
But in April, Trump beat him in monthly fundraising totals for the first time.
The Biden campaign has spent $25 million on TV ads in swing states to virtually no effect.
Now, Democrats are sounding the alarm about Biden’s eroding support with minorities and young voters.
“The number of people in New York, including people of color that I come across who are saying positive things about Trump, is alarming,” Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine (D) said.
State Representative Laurie Pohutsky (D-MI) warned that there’s no energy among younger voters in the crucial swing state of Michigan.
“In 2020, there was enough energy to get Donald Trump out and there were other things on the ballot that brought young people out in subsequent elections,” Pohutsky said. “That’s not the case this time.”
The dogs of summer haven’t hit, and Democrats are already in panic mode about Joe Biden’s sagging political fortunes.
