Does Joe Biden, the leader, have any decisions to make? Who knows? Possibly not. Heck, it was unclear from day one whether he was the one actually in charge of his presidency. Well, now he’s made it crystal clear that he’s extremely disconnected from reality.

White House officials claim that if Biden had stayed in the competition, he would have simply defeated Donald Trump if he had dropped out of the race.  ,
Despite bad polling reports, White House sources claim that Joe Biden regrets pulling out of this year’s presidential race and believes he could include defeated Donald Trump in the election of next month.

After mounting pressure from other Democrats, who cited polling data that appeared to suggest that the president was headed for a near-certain vote trouncing from Trump, who was seeking a traditional returning to the White House as the Republicans ‘ candidate, the leader stepped aside to get replaced by Kamala Harris as his party’s nominee.
Harris ‘ ascendance to the top of the seat resulted in a ferocious uprising and improved surveys results, but the result was a crushing electoral college and a popular vote defeat.
According to the monitoring from the Washington Post, Biden and his supporters have been cautious not to blame Harris, but they appear to think the outcome would have been different if he had stood his ground.

Some Harris adherents contest the idea that if he had stayed in, Biden might have won the election. They contend that Kamala didn’t have enough time to develop a successful campaign because Biden waited too long to remove.
Of course, they’re bad, too. Trump’s power in the 2024 was, for all intents and purposes, baked into the cake. The Harris-Walz campaign raised and spent$ 1 billion, but failed to win a single battleground state, highlighting the futility of their efforts. It definitely didn’t matter whether Biden ran for office or not, or whether he had already left earlier; the Democratic Party company was already in decline as a result of the Biden-Harris ticket’s problems.
Biden’s understanding of how the election may have turned out to be a strange combination of rejection and delusion.
In a” Pod Save America” episode last month, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau and Tommy Vietor openly criticized Joe Biden’s 2024 campaign, called his decision to run again a” catastrophic mistake”, and revealed that Biden team’s internal polling showed Trump poised to win 400 electoral votes—a detail kept quiet while Biden’s camp pushed the narrative that he was the strongest candidate.

” So they were shiving Kamala Harris to writers while they told people else’ hardly a day for an open approach,’ and his vice president can’t win, so he’s the strongest candidate”, Favreau said. ” Then we find out, when the Biden campaign becomes the Harris campaign, that the Biden campaign’s own internal polling, at the time when they were telling us he was the strongest candidate, showed that Donald Trump was gonna win 400 electoral votes. That’s what their own internal polling said”.
Biden was never going to be able to win the election, nor was Kamala Harris. Because the election was a vote on the incumbent party, no Democrat would have been able to win either. Even suggesting that Biden might have one shows that he isn’t in touch with reality.
