(DailyVantage.com) – During an interview on CBS Mornings, First Lady Jill Biden claimed that she felt it was “obvious” that President Joe Biden would win the 2024 presidential election.
According to Jill Biden, the president’s ongoing re-election campaign has progressed excellently, and President Biden will likely win the support of unconvinced voters within the coming weeks. Jill Biden also hinted at the potential chaos that would stem from another term under former President Donald Trump, claiming that people who value experience and wisdom should vote for her husband.
When asked if she felt worried about any aspect of President Biden’s campaign, Jill Biden said she wasn’t concerned and was utterly confident that Americans would re-elect her husband. Jill Biden also claimed that national polls indicating her husband’s steady decline in popularity from his first election campaign aren’t accurate, despite CBS Host Tony Dokoupil confronting her with evidence of President Biden’s lackluster performance.
Dokoupil expressly referred to polls from the critical battleground states, in which President Biden falls behind Trump in all but one. Jill Biden quickly dismissed the polls, stating that her husband wasn’t losing the battleground states and that he was climbing in popularity over the past few weeks.
Jill Biden’s claim that her husband’s popularity is increasing isn’t entirely inaccurate. President Biden has gained some support following his State of the Union address. Biden climbed to 45% of voters’ support, just one percent behind former President Donald Trump. Despite his growing popularity, some political experts remain skeptical that Biden will maintain his recent growth in support. A common claim amongst experts is that Biden’s poll numbers increasing after his State of the Union appearance is expected and doesn’t indicate a permanent trend.
Although Biden has gained on Trump in national polls over the past month, surveys from crucial battleground states still indicate Trump as the front-running presidential candidate. Among the states that prefer Trump is South Carolina, which supported President Biden in the 2020 election. Trump currently has the support of 48% of South Carolina voters, and Biden only has the support of approximately 46%. The South Carolina polls indicate that the majority of Democrats support President Biden, with a large number of independents and conservatives supporting former President Donald Trump.
Another cause of concern for Biden’s presidential efforts is controversial independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Kennedy, who initially campaigned as a Democrat but switched to an independent ticket after the Democratic Party nominated Biden. Some political experts believe Kennedy could pull moderate Democrats away from Biden and cause the president to lose critical voters once the 2024 election begins. Despite these concerns, Jill Biden claims her husband will win a second term and remain the President of the United States.
