Biden fires back at 2024 doubts: Democrats ‘want me to run’
The Hill ^ | 7/12/22 | Morgan Chalfant

President Biden insisted Tuesday that Democrats want him to run for reelection, firing back at doubters after a poll showed a majority of primary voters wanted someone else at the top of the ticket in 2024.

“They want me to run,” Biden said Tuesday evening when asked by a reporter, towards the end of the White House congressional picnic, for his message to Democrats who don’t want him to run for reelection.

“Read the polls. Read the polls,” Biden continued. “You guys are all the same. That poll showed that 92 percent of Democrats if I ran would vote for me.”

Biden was citing a statistic in the New York Times/Siena College poll that showed 92 percent of Democrats would vote for him if the 2024 presidential election were held today and the choices were Biden or former President Trump.

What Biden did not address, however, was that the poll, released Monday, also showed 64 percent of Democratic primary voters said they would prefer the party nominate someone other than Biden in 2024, while 26 percent said that Biden should be the next Democratic presidential nominee.

The result was even more lopsided among young Democrats, with 94 percent of Democratic voters ages 18-29 saying that someone other than Biden should be the 2024 nominee.

The poll was the starkest sign yet of the frustration and discontent among many in the party with Biden and only increased the chatter about other potential nominees.

What do you mean, “run?” You can’t even walk. Maybe they really just want you to shuffle, yea?

I picture Joe Biden roaming the halls of the corridors during visiting hours and rolling up to kids and asking them, “Hey darlin’, come on up here and crawl up on my lap, I’ll give you some candy!”

“No one will do exactly as they are told like me!”, argued Biden.

“Democrats” = Jill and Hunter. After all, you only need two to make a plurality.
