The internal dispute within the US Democratic Party is favoring Donald Trump’s campaign for the 2024 presidential election, according to Professor Carlos Gustavo Poggio of Berea College. In an interview with CNN 360° the expert analyzed the current American political scenario and the implications for the race for the White House.
According to Poggio, pressure on Joe Biden to drop his reelection bid has been growing in recent weeks. “What we have seen is a lot of pressure from party leaders. And recently a large group of donors who donate millions to the Democratic Party said they will no longer donate, they will stop all donations until Biden drops out of the campaign,” he explained.
Uncertainties and speculations
Despite the growing pressure, the professor warns against jumping to conclusions. “We can’t, as many people have done, say that Biden is out of the running, that Trump has already won the election,” Poggio said. He points out that there is a strong anti-Trump sentiment among Democratic voters, which could benefit any candidate from the party.
The expert also commented on recent polls that have shown ambiguous results. “This morning, for example, a poll from a respected institute in the United States came out that puts Joe Biden ahead of Donald Trump,” he mentioned, highlighting the volatility of the political scenario.
Prospects for the future
Poggio stressed that the election is still four months away, a period considered “an eternity” in politics. He suggested that the next 48 hours will be crucial in determining the course of Biden’s candidacy and the Democratic Party’s strategy.
The professor concluded by highlighting the complexity of the American electoral dynamic, where many Democratic voters vote more against Trump than for Biden. “As a rule, Democratic voters don’t vote for Biden because they like Biden. I myself know a lot of people here who will vote for Biden, but they criticize Biden all the time, they don’t like Biden and they will vote reluctantly,” he concluded.
