CNN’s Fareed Zakaria Tells Democrats to Face ‘Reality’ That Biden is Probably Going to Lose to Trump in November - RePost

Seen on Gateway Pundit originally.  Re-posting below:

Real Clear Politics provides a transcript:

FAREED ZAKARIA, CNN: I have to admit none of this is playing out as I thought it would.

Trump is now leading in almost all the swing states. But behind those numbers lie even more troubling details. As someone worried about the prospects of a second Trump term, I think it’s best to be honest about reality. I understand that polls are not always accurate. But in general, they have tended to underestimate Donald Trump’s support, not overestimate it. I doubt that there are many shy Biden voters in the country.

The economy has been in a robust recovery for more than two years now with unemployment hitting a 54-year low in 2023 and increasing only slightly since then. But Biden is getting little credit for it. The shift here is stark. On the question of whom voters trust more to deal with the economy, Trump has a 22-point lead over Biden according to an NBC poll from January. This marks of a 15-point bump for Trump compared to the same poll in 2020.

Perhaps this is because inflation is a far more pervasive problem than unemployment affecting all Americans every day. Perhaps it’s because people’s views on the economy now are largely derived from their broader attitudes towards the candidates. But whatever the reasons it’s a stunning reversal in the midst of a relentless stream of good economic news.

On cultural issues, Biden and Democrats benefit from the opposition to the Republican Party’s position on abortion. But on the other great cultural issue, immigration, Biden is 35 points behind Trump as to who would handle it better. And I do wonder whether abortion will be as large an issue in a presidential race, given that reversing Roe v. Wade threw the issue to state governments and legislatures, and not the federal government.

Watch the whole thing:

When people on CNN are talking like this, you know Biden is in serious trouble.

Again seen on Gateway Pundit.

The Liberal Socialist Democrats (LSD's) and many in the DC Swamp must fear Trump being back in the White House.

It would mean a Deep State flush of the guilty, exposure of the O'Biden Coup, the ring leaders and all of their illegal, constitutional violations, politically bias court and DOJ uses and their race based games for votes.

Then there is the matter of the Covid-19 lies, and $$$ Billions in made off the deadly Clot-Shot cover up. A lie that has caused the loss of 1,219,487 America Lives to date.

The polls are early but showing low for Trump as they will be higher. I really expect the Dems will remove Biden from the ticket at the DNC Convention. What is not mentioned is that illegal aliens can vote and will vote to cause the Dems to win as the US Law code says if the illegal "believes" that they are an American Citizen they can vote. This will likely send us into CW2.
