As President Biden returns from his Ukraine trip, the latest Marist poll shows more Dems warming up to a Biden reelection campaign.
“In the latest Marist, 45% said they should give another candidate a chance. A better chance. You look at November. Those numbers jumped from 38% to 50%,” Joe Scarborough said.
He cautioned that the poll is “just a snapshot, it really doesn’t mean a lot. If Joe Biden decides to run for re-election, he will run for re-election. Democrats would be stupid to run against him. Again, Joe Biden is a guy who is constantly underestimated. His political career and the campaign in 2020, mocked, ridiculed by the right and the progressive left. Underestimated over the last two years.
“We hear the whispers and then the midterms come. Okay. And then it is like, a week later, too old, not going to be up to it. And then he does the State of the Union. ‘Okay, we’re fine. Don’t worry.’ Two nights later, the bedwetting begins again. We can’t — the guy showing up on a secret trip to Kyiv after taking a 10-hour train ride in and could have been killed by enemy troops in the war zone.”
They noted Donald Trump could never make that trip.
“He sent a strong message not only to Ukraine but the world about what America — not Democrats or Joe Biden — what America thinks of democracy and we have behind Ukraine. It is a strong message. I think you will see it in the polls more, especially among Democrats that, yeah, this guy that went into a war zone in a way that no other president did since Lincoln in the Civil War, maybe he is up to running for re-election,” Scarborough said.
