Can Biden bounce back as the US presidential race turns nastier?

Retrieved on: 
Friday, September 29, 2023

Antagonism between the two expected candidates for US president in 2024 is ramping up as the political battleground turns increasingly nasty.

Key Points: 
  • Antagonism between the two expected candidates for US president in 2024 is ramping up as the political battleground turns increasingly nasty.
  • Americans continue to be concerned about threats to US democracy, according to a NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.
  • In the same week, Trump’s speech to car industry workers in Detroit pointedly tried to drive a wedge between Biden and working-class voters.

It’s the economy, stupid

    • An ABC News/Washington Post poll on September 24 found that 44% of respondents believe they are financially worse off under Biden.
    • While his administration can rightly point to strong economic growth, near full employment, and record investment in infrastructure, one economic metric remains a critical area of concern: rising prices.
    • Senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, William A. Galston said that “the earnings of most US households declined significantly last year.
    • Gary Langer, a public opinion researcher and political analyst, has observed that: “When he reluctantly left office in January 2021, 38% approved of (Trump’s) work as president… But currently, looking back, 48% say they approve of Trump’s performance when he was in office… Comparison with Biden may be a factor.”

The age factor

    • The other political issue at play for Joe Biden is his age.
    • In a recent NBC News poll, 74% of voters stated that they had concerns about an octogenarian president as well as his mental fitness.
    • In May 2023 Trump was found liable in a civil trial of sexually assaulting advice columnist E. Jean Carroll in 1996.
    • With 13 months to go before the next presidential election, Biden and Trump remain in an incredibly tight race according to recent polling.
