CNN analyst Fernanda Magnotta said during the CNN 360° this Wednesday (3) that two factors could be decisive in President Joe Biden’s candidacy for reelection in 2024: pressure from other Democratic candidates who could be affected by Biden’s image and the conditions imposed by campaign financiers.
According to Magnotta, there is concern within the Democratic Party about how Biden could hinder other candidates if he remains on the ballot. “It’s worth remembering that in the US this year, in addition to the presidential election, we also have elections for Congress, the Senate and the House of Representatives — and in some states for governors,” she said.
She highlighted that there is already pressure from those who believe they could be harmed by a potential Biden candidacy.
Internal pressure
The second factor highlighted by the analyst is related to campaign financiers. According to reports, some of them are making the sending of funds conditional on a more decisive stance regarding the president’s political future.
Biden is counting on his participation in campaign events and the interview scheduled for this Friday (5) to reverse the situation. He has also received advice from emblematic figures in the party, such as the former Democratic leader in the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi.
Pelosi said it was a “legitimate question” whether Biden should remain a candidate and suggested he expose himself more, including in improvised interviews, to demonstrate his true status.
