Biden is headed for defeat in upcoming election — and Dems have ‘no plan to fix the problems’: top pollster
NYPost ^ | 02 19 2024 | Ariel Zilber

Famed pollster Nate Silver said President Biden is headed for defeat this November due to his age and declining job performance — and the Democrats have “no plan to fix the problems.”

Silver, founder and former editor-in-chief of the FiveThirtyEight statistics website, said that, while the incumbent president “can still win,” it will only be the result of polls being wrong or “voters [who] look at the race differently when they have more time to focus on it.”

“Biden is probably a below-replacement-level candidate at this point because Americans have a lot of extremely rational concerns about the prospect of a Commander-in-Chief who would be 86 years old by the end of his second term,” Silver wrote in his “Silver Bulletin” newsletter.

“It is entirely reasonable to see this as disqualifying.”

The Post has sought comment from Biden’s re-election campaign.

Last week, ABC News/Ipsos released the results of a poll showing that a staggering 86% of adults think the 81-year-old Biden is too old to serve another term in office.

Biden supporters note that the presumptive GOP nominee, former President Donald Trump, faces significant legal challenges. Silver countered that argument, saying that is “not a good reason to nominate Biden.”

Some polls show Trump ahead of Biden in key swing states.

It’s not like they had plans to convince people. Their legal plan is to collect ballots from the disinterested.

They have a plan - President Trump should stay away from book depositories and grassy knolls.

Jill ordered Joe’s handlers to do something about his squinty eyes.

So they propped them open with Crazy Glue. Klobuchar said Biden was so "focused."

Aren’t there enough fortifications of the election through midnight drops to fix it?

If Biden gets reelected, our “democracy” is about as real as Russia’s.

Bullcrap. Just like Schumer saying, “ it will be a bloodbath, “ knowing the dems always win.

The only reason that Joe has not chosen to take retirement at the end of this term is because “Doctor” Jill still has visions of being Edith Wilson, the spouse of Woodrow Wilson, in the last months of Wilson’s second term. He was almost completely disabled, and Edith was the communicator who came out and claimed, “The President has stated.....”, essentially the acting President. Nobody else ever knew what he said.

But today we have the 25th Amendment. It was only supposed to be used to remove Republican Presidents (like Trump) but it actually does apply to Democrat Socialist Presidents as well.

My thoughts: ignore problems.
Trump elected.
Blame problems on Trump.
Trump will try to resolve.
All trumps plans will be challenged by courts.
Problems still not fixed.
Rinse and repeat

If Biden turns on Harris even the dems will want to impeach him

Given the Antiques in the deep state last time, Trump may tell the courts to %#&@ off. Justifiably so.

We must be prepared for November. The left will try to go all out on buying America down if they can’t have it.

The Democrats always have a plan and a backup plan to the Plan B. Always.

Biden will NOT be on the ballot in November. His replacement will be dazzling and fresh and exciting to the voters as projected night and day by the media.
I fear Trump will no longer be with us. Dealey Plaza II.

May God protect him.

They have a plan. They have several plans, some of them extreme.
