Joe Biden Tell Press Kamala Harris Could Have Beaten Trump Despite Major Loss

In a recent press conference, President Joe Biden expressed confidence that both he and Vice President Kamala Harris could have secured victory against Donald Trump in the 2024 election. Biden stated, “I would have beaten Trump, could have beaten Trump, and I think that Kamala could have beaten Trump and would have beaten Trump.”

However, Harris did run as the Democratic nominee and was defeated by Trump, who secured 312 electoral votes to Harris’s 226.

Biden’s remarks have sparked criticism within the Democratic Party. Some members argue that his delayed withdrawal from the race and subsequent endorsement of Harris left her with insufficient time to mount a robust campaign, contributing to her loss.

Additionally, tensions between Biden and Harris have been noted, with recent public appearances showing minimal interaction between the two.

As the Democratic Party reflects on the 2024 election outcome, discussions continue regarding the factors that led to the defeat and the path forward for future campaigns. However many in the Democrat Party are still unwilling to accept that the party’s policies and stances are what led to the resurgence of President Trump.
