Democrats are hyperventilating about Joe Biden not being able to beat Donald Trump in November’s election.
I think replacing Joe Biden now, would be a mistake and here’s why:
1) Joe Biden as the incumbent would have a far greater chance in beating Trump than another candidate, parachuted in, at this late stage.
2) Despite his shocking debate performance last Friday (Australian time), Joe Biden has demonstrated his ability to lead and manage the economy well, pass legislation and be a good progressive president (better than Obama and Clinton).
3) Any new candidate would get 4 months of relentless attacks by Fox News and the republicans, so it would be nearly impossible for a new candidate to demonstrate their credentials, to convince voters that they are up for the job. This is true for candidates such as Gavin Newsom or Gretchen Whitmer.
4) Americans, unfortunately, won’t vote for Kamala Harris as president, despite her achievements. If she were to replace Biden, it’s almost certain that she would lose Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona and Georgia, as well as lose Ohio and Iowa. These states will decide the election.
5) Read Allan Lichtmann’s analysis. He has correctly predicted all successful election results since 1984, except for 2000, which was essentially a coup orchestrated by the Supreme Court, to hand George W Bush the presidency.
