I don’t think either of them are in the race because they think they’ll get more votes than the sitting president. Williamson is in to push ideology, Phillips is in because Biden is too old and might die.
If having to run a primary is ‘damaging’ to a candidate, maybe they shouldn’t be in politics. I would argue that Biden sending weapons to a genocidal country is infinitely more damaging to his re-election prospects.
There’s way more issues I don’t agree with Biden, but currently supplying weapons that are actively used for a genocide without preconditions is pretty bad compared to stuff like student loans or whatever.
From a purely electoral standpoint, he’s basically lost Michigan because of this.
I’m sure all those Palestinians in Dearborn will forget all about how their family members got exterminated with American bombs come election time. Not to mention, Biden is doing his best to escalate things in the middle east, so I expect things to be worse, not better.
And again, he’s losing people all over the place on other issues as well, and there’s the senior moments as well. And of course there’s breaking the election promise that he’d be a one term President.
Not possible for Biden to look good in the fight? Well I have bad news, he’ll need to fight in the general election and his approval numbers are already trash…
LOL, what? People run for president for all kinds of reasons despite not having a chance. Did you even know who Marianne Williamson or Andrew Yang were four years ago? Pete Buttigieg went from being a town mayor to the Secretary of Transportation. Is this like, literally your first primary?
The only damage Biden needs to worry about in this primary is the inevitable passage of time bringing him closer and closer to death.
