WASHINGTON - - While Super Tuesday left Democrats with a pair of front-runners President Donald Trump believes he can define and defeat, there are still some private worries in the White House.
There is concern that the Democrats messy nomination contest may end up producing an emboldened version of the very man who once worried Trump so much as a foe that it led to the presidents impeachment.
That would be Joe Biden.
Trump and his team have spent the last year trying to lump the Democratic contenders together as left-wing radicals. Bidens working-class appeal and more pragmatic policy approach arent a ready fit with that GOP framing. Trump allies have pointed to Bidens embrace of liberal positions on gun control, but he steered clear of the more extreme positions of his rivals on health care.
Trump cheered the collapse of Bloomberg, who sank more than $500 million of his own money into his campaign yet performed woefully the first day on the ballot.
But some in Trumps orbit questioned the bullishness with which the campaign professed to view Biden, believing the former vice presidents universal name ID and likability would make it more difficult to brand him as a socialist. Biden has proved resilient - his resurgence was rivaled by few in modern campaign history - and has consolidated moderate support while showcasing his strength among African American voters, a segment of the electorate the presidents campaign hopes to win over.
This looks very much like Bidens race to lose at this point, said Chris Wilson, a GOP consultant. Hes clearly strong not just with African Americans, but also with white Democrats outside of the socialist left. The field on the establishment/progressive side of the ballot has cleared for him to run head-to-head with Bernie in the remaining states.

BS article>>>>>
I don’t get the impression that POTUS is very worried about Biden.
Jonathan LeMire and Zeke Miller, you worthless pieces of schiff journalists. “Private worries”. Another BS article without a source. Just make it up. Grow a pair and name your sources.
Even if he can’t be branded a card carrying socialist, there’s definitely enough evidence to brand him a doddering old fool.
That one line right there is so far from the truth it will soon arrive at its destination in a galaxy far, far away.
"But some in Trumps orbit"
"Those around the president have long asserted..."
Tyoical unsourced BS.
“Typical”
yes! Go with this AP!
And when Joe is the nominee and he gets p on the debate stage and says things like “I am ready for my close up Mr. Deville” or “my opponent, Mr. Bush”.. or “ i am in it to win it! I will be the next dog catcher for Peoria!”
Even his fans won;t be able to take it.
Yes, I love how they buy (and cite) the narrative that the Ukraine thing was due to Trump’s fear of Bidet.
I could actually envision during a debate Trump saying “Go Home, Joe”
And Biden, literally, wandering off the debate platform.
More like Biden’s backers worried so much about Trump as a foe that the faintest by-proxy inquiry into foreign dealings motivated them to attempt the President’s removal lest something be found. Were they not so worried, they’d have not launched such a hysterical attack on him.
Senile Joe...being taken seriously? We already had one token president. we don’t need another.
From AP. TDS.
Biden is the true Manchurian candidate.
Look for the hate Trump left, the corporatist status quo, and Globalists to unite behind him. He is nothing more than a vessel to be used by them to get back at the levers of power.
The Zombie Coalition.
Biden is nothing more than a lying, corrupt, senile, dopey, gropey imbecile. He is obviously transitioning from early onset dementia to the intermediate stages of that terrible disease. To keep him in the race just to deny Bernie the nomination is a sickening travesty.
So cute how they try to paint any democrat as a moderate. First they kill off true democrat moderates like Tulsi and then rebrand the lefty who wins as being moderate.
Cynicism defined.
That would be awesome! Or ‘Look Joe, a little girl!”, and he looks around excitedly.
