Joe Biden's decision to run for re-election is viewed as disastrous, hindering credible contenders and narrowing the Democratic primaries. His poor debate performance revealed weakness, yet the party largely stayed supportive out of fear of disloyalty to Biden. This created a culture of silence where many prominent Democrats, including state chairs and governors, did not act against the tide of his renomination, despite clear signals of his declining popularity. As a result, the party now faces serious challenges in maintaining support from critical voter bases like young people and people of color.
Joe Biden's insistence on running for re-election was disastrous, keeping credible contenders out of the primaries and preventing the selection of a strong nominee.
Democrats, terrified of disloyalty and ostracization, failed to challenge Biden, facilitating his renomination despite evident weakness and eroded support from key demographics.
