Biden: "I think I would've beaten Trump, could've beaten Trump. And I that Kamala could've beaten Trump, would've beaten Trump. I thought it was important to unify the party ... I was confident she could win."

President Biden should’ve announced that he wouldn’t run in 2022 & then endorsed Kamala an hour later.
He said he’d be a transitional President & in this he effed up-a lot🤨
We’ve got 722 days to take back the House & Senate😎🔵🇺🇸
It’s interesting how many people are willing to blame literally anything for her “loss”, other than unlawful and continuous election manipulation, that took place in broad daylight.
maga has us conditioned not to question with evidence, after their crusade without any. Shame.
No sir you would not have. I really love and appreciate everything you’ve done for our country. It’s time for you to retire and enjoy your life. Thank you.
With her running democrats at least managed to prevent a real total control of the government.
Im talking 60 senators, plus a surge in Congress. Trump barely controls the House, he BARELY won the popular vote. We don’t need this fucking gaslighting old man.
Yeah, and considering how well Harris was seeming to do among important demographics (youth, black, etc), and how many votes SHE DID get, I think it really just comes down to a combination of casual misogyny, and her 11th hour swing toward aggravating centrism.
I think he is naive about the tipping point where all the nefarious activities of the GOP group has overwhelmed the election process to make it untenable. Big money is king. Democracy barely has a pulse.
Exactly! I don't trust them one bit. They are all a bunch of criminals so there is no telling what they are capable of. We do know they are capable of terrorists attacks if they lose.
I have always wondered why Biden and his press scream and yell about the economy and everything else he took care of. Every month of improvement should have been very public vs small releases job reports
All of it.
Had he stepped down after the '22 midterms, the outcome may have been different. Harris or someone else could have mounted a proper campaign. We'll never know, but the margins would have been in actual "mandate" range had Biden continued.
I doubted, undermining their voters dismissing their concern was one of the biggest downfall to the Democratic party. I hope they learn something from it. Supporting war &Genocide it never be a winner.
Joe & Kamala were no match for Trump's poison. The facts that the Democrats were pushing were confining and boring. But the fantasies Trump was peddling (immigrants eating pets, Mexican rapists, trans people lurking) were entertaining. Trump only had to say it and people filled in the rest.
The delusional thinking of Joe Biden is obvious here. It was that delusional thinking that caused him to run for a second term rather than step aside as he had previously implied he would. That decision to run probably lost the White House for the dems.
If the media hadn't sanewashed Trump & treated him with the outrage they treated Biden & Harris's every little hiccup, then indeed that's what would have happened
He probably believes that. In hindsight, he should have stood aside and let the Dems hold primaries to select a candidate. That may well have been Kamala Harris. Who knows? In truth, Joe just wasn't convincing, and he wouldn't have won. Unfortunately, age waits for no man, and Joe found that out.
Still not convinced that the machines were clean. Too many skanks involved in the process. Hand counts at key sites should have been done. Verify totals at least. But what do I know. I’m just a stupid voter.
Isn't easy to win in a system where winning every county in West Virginia apparently isn't winning, not being a democrat was actually a plus who wants to be another dem swamp monster
Weird how he has no problems pretending to be one of us when it suits him. You'd think if he and folks like you hated us so much you wouldn't ever pretend to be us.
Bernie is the GOP’s dream guy to run against and lie about socialism Marxism to scare their stupid voters.
I like Bernie but the “normal” GOP would not have voted for him.
He is extreme to them.
He would have run as a DEM like last time.
Joe, love ya, but you wouldn’t have beaten Trump. The polling and approval ratings showed that. But then again the Anne Selzer poll also showed Kamala ahead so wtf does anybody know anymore.
Although he squeaked a popular vote win, the problem remains the Electoral College. Even with a popular vote win the Dems can't overwrite the inequality of the EC.
Guza is not all there is in life. You do know Americans died under Trump right? you do know Nazi camps are coming for immigrants, right? you do know about Yemen, right? or don't any of those lives matter ever?
Whoever could have gotten out the anti-Trump vote. The nonvoters from Biden 2020 to Harris 2024 threw the election to Trump. Didn't want to vote for Trump, but didn't vote for Harris. So, what caused this? Couldn't vote for a black woman? Gaza protest nonvote?
FAFO
He's such a genuine righteous American, the whole reason he wasn't my first choice. That time passed when the roar of Limbaugh began training the Right in the 80s, Gingrich 90s, Tea Party 2000s to the full Monty corrupt GOP we see now supported by the massive right-wing propaganda machine.
I mean he would have. This country would have voted for one old white guy vs another. Too many people sat home cause they thought she didn’t earn it and of course she was Black. Didn’t help the press for four years said how she didn’t do anything and the Dem shit talkers to Politico about her.
And I really want people to go after the Democrats who shit on Harris for four years and knives out Biden in June. They fucked this country over and I don’t want to vote for any of these assholes again. They are tossing trans kids and adults under the bus and I’m sure coming for the rest of us later
yeah like giving billions in weapons to foreign war criminals instead of domestic issues will do that.
the price of shit it's directly related to our current oligarchy that neither party is willing to turn on. The ones that fell for the rhetoric weren't going to ever vote for an incumbent.
A Democrat may have won had Biden not chose to run in the primary. If Harris won the primary, she likely wins the election.
Keep in mind the Palestinians protesters linked Harris to Biden on the genocide issue. A different candidate may have been more palettable to a wider demographic
My son, who is «always right» when it comes to American politics is still sure Biden would have won. Trump's rallies showed that voters don't care about what is said or behavior of the candidate.
Apparently not, but the fact that the chief executive in charge of the branch of government responsible for enforcing the law never gets questioned for that dereliction of duty is disgusting.
We get the President we voted for and for too many Americans, we get the President for not voting at all. Ever notice Republicans vote every time. Even if the candidate is a criminal. Democrats can’t get off the couch to keep a convicted criminal who was best friends with Epstein from the presidency
I knew when he stepped aside that she would lose, because there are too many men who will never vote for a women, regardless of what is running against her!
He should have been prepping for that from day one and going aggressively after the traitors without considering the political capital bullshit that so many moron presidolts focus on.
He chose not to meet the moment and the country dies because of his arrogance.
My 81 year old mother finally conceded Biden should have never run for a second term, and he's in part to blame for a second Trump presidency. Doesn't help the country, but it spares me having to hear her just blame Kamala.
After some time, I feel the same. The blame lays at his feet. He kneecapped the party by running again. And this is from someone who thinks he did a good job in his first term.
Totally agree. My understanding was he was a one-term, 'bridge' president to fix as much of the damage as he could. And he mostly did that! He had a lot of accomplishments! But like every other politician, he let ego get in the way and didn't step aside for a stronger candidate/campaign.
He’s to blame for that, Manchin/Sinema shooting down BBB, Kamala offering nothing to the working class except a measly home buyer credit that would have helped almost nobody buy a home in this market, etc.
Oh, yeah, there is a lot of blame to go around. Throw in the DNC F'ing up again and not doing enough in local and state elections. I'm in MI and some races were way closer than they should have been.
Yeah but the DNC blames trans people and progressives. 😒🙄
Tim Walz was wasted and compromised as a future candidate.
He should have been in 3 Blue Wall cities every day the whole campaign. The whole campaign should have focused on the Blue Wall - not “nice to haves” like GA and NC.
Yea- this election was lost the minute he declared he was running again. The outcome might have been different if he had encouraged an open primary in 2023.
It was for sure lost 2 minutes into his horrendous debate performance. It was too late at that point for another candidate to step in. A tragic mistake
Nice changing of topics there. You got told by multiple people this was a lie. If you want to argue he never should have run in 2020 have fun with that.
That is THE POINT - he should have been building up Harris for 3 years, so that people could get to know her, see her as competent and able. He did none of that, that is the problem.
I think if Biden had kept his promise to be a one and done, we would have had a fighting chance.
He is part of the reason why the Fourth Reich begins on January 20.
The incompetence is our only hope, but the problem is too many of those associated with Trump aren't completely incompetent.
Even then though, incompetence can cause problems on its own.
Maybe biden is like Obiwan and had to sacrifice himself (and the party) in order that the nation (Luke) can truly see how evil lord Vader (trump) really is over the next 4 years.
The chances of trump 'turning on the emperor' (musk) at the finale, are quite slim, admittedly.
I agree we would've had a better chance but I think the country largely rejected the Democratic Party and there isn't much we could have done. In what world does the electorate not associate the candidate with Biden? No amount of throwing him under the bus would have done it
Bernie Sanders is correct that the Democratic Party has abandoned the working class of the nation.
It doesn't help that Democratic leadership will not step aside and let new leaders step up. See Pelosi vs AOC.
The real problem is that a third party won't step up to give an alternative.
And this persistent false dishonest lie that the party that provably passed shitloads of things that helped the working class somehow magically really hates the people they helped is why Trump won.
Why do we keep lying like this? Literally what is the purpose of always lying about what Dems do?
What have the Dems done to help the working class lately, and why hasn't one of those things been to raise the Federal Minimum Wage, which is still $7.25 per hour, while allowing Congress to increase their own pay?
Yep. Trump pretty much blamed everything wrong with the world on Biden, and the masses are it up. And then all Trump had to do next was tie Harris’ hand to Biden. Never in my adulthood has a VP been blamed for everything wrong in the world like her. They were doomed from jump. We needed a primary
Someone who wasn’t tied to Biden so Trump couldn’t blame everything on them like he did Biden/Harris. He could have had one of the greatest presidencies if he called it after a great midterm show out, to put forward the new generation president, & they wiffed hard not doing that. Cost is everything
If Harris would have broken from Biden on Isn't Real and Palestine and otherwise gone further Left from the Reagan Conservative she and Biden both are, she might have had a shot.
Pelosi also blocking AOC is a problem.
The DNC is the problem.
He could have beaten trump, as he did before. Look at the explanations and excuses from people below. Not one of them is a rationale for preferring trump over anyone else. Too many leftists prefer to complain than vote, and they all think that’s a rational plan.
One of the greatest presidents in history, IMHO. He had the weight of the world on his shoulders, getting us out of COVID, which he successfully did. THEN, added ARPA for local economic development. AND added manufacturing jobs. Both repaired and built the economy.
IMHO Biden said he was going to be a one term President, he should have kept that promise and we could have had an open primary, I don’t know that Kalama (and I voted for her) would have been the candidate. The Dems may have won with a different candidate. Or Trump would have cheated anyway.
Can you name the white male who was polling better. GN, JS, AB were all losing to Trump by bigger numbers then Biden on the day Biden dropped out. Just because ppl want to bash on Biden doesn't mean there is any evidence anyone else would have won.
Jesus Christ Joe, no. Just no.
Had you faced Trump, you would've lost worse than Kamala.
Shame on you for running again, especially when you said you wouldn't. And shame on the Democrats for hiding your decline for so damn long.
It's over. Bow out gracefully.
He has been quietly doing his job this is his first Presser in ages and you act like he is Trump so yeah I think it fits LOL that's your Bullshit so I guess we even
Biden had no chance in hell of beating 🍊. However, since Americans will never vote for a woman- especially a black woman, he most likely would have done better- much better than Harris. But still lost.
I think he never should have run for a second term and in doing so he screwed us over. And it’s a pity because he tarnished what would have been an excellent legacy.
Americans vote with their wallets. They’re not ready for a woman president, let alone a woman of colour. Let’s hope their choice to elect a corrupt, felonious old man tied to a sex-trafficking paedo doesn’t destroy their country and drag the world down with it.
Kamala lost by as much as I thought was possible. I was surprised she actually lost that bad. If it was closer I'd think Biden still would have lost but maybe people just didn't like Kamala. Hard to tell without a primary and the 20' primary didn't go well for her either. Plausible he would have won
Either way, too many people sat on their asses and didn’t vote, whether Joe or Kamala, wouldn’t have made a difference. Media made sure neither one was going to win. Them people believing dogs & cats were being eaten, and egg prices were gonna come down amplified daily is what happened. Lies won
Nah fuck that shit, maybe Dementia Joe shouldn’t prove that moniker at the worst time possible on national television, maybe give people a real fucking primary instead of clinging to power.
Joseph R Biden, his power hungry wife, and his crackhead son just could let go of power. His legacy is fucked
People DID vote and ended up going for Trump, you shitlibs will blame EVERYONE else and refuse to consider the possibility it may be just maybe your part of the problem too?
And if Joe would've run, the clips from the debate where he wasn't his best would've been relentless and constantly on lame steam media. Don't even wanna know what those ads would've looked like. 😔
Yeah, I think a lot of people sat on their asses because they voted for Joe in the primaries and then after the July 4 party whatever the hell happened next thing you know oh you gotta go you too old Joe you got a stutter that we all of a sudden didn’t know about the last 35 years
Not in my minority hood it wasn't we care about Democracy America civil rights immigrants maybe if more of did it would help. We also care about the planet! labor, student loans. Plus I am still waiting for ppl to care about all the genocides of black ppl in Congo Sudan and America with covid.
I’m also not convinced there wasn’t some shady shit too: the numbers just don’t add up
Media sane-washing everything Trump & GOP spewed
Bomb threats
Know Russian misinformation
And a billionaire paying for votes.
I’ll never believe he won all swing states, never!
And given all that’s stated, however true. People still didn’t think she was better than letting a rapist, felon, traitor get elected?was he really a better choice. That’s my beef
But if that was the difference, then regardless who was the candidate, the other side had those rallying cries. So how do you think that Biden who has been having software glitches for some time could have countered that? Clearly voters were interested in 1,2 and 3
I doubt that movies and shows will make the difference. The most important thing is to have a platform that puts people’s needs first. Ensure you are about jobs, equity, affordability and sanity - voters will choose that. Then work on dealing with 1,2,3. Can only do it when in control.
🥱Because your "thinking" is a better predictor than the stats that underestimated your competitiveness in the race. Just like in his debate performance, his "thinking" is AWOL.
All those non-voters "making a statement" with their non-vote...they really showed who they are. They would rather lose health coverage, pay higher taxes, pay higher prices, and lose personal rights than vote for a black woman. Good luck suckers.
Stepping aside was the right move, made too late, for the wrong candidate. I voted Kamala, & would always vote against Trump. Democrats were too comfortable and Biden was too stubborn. They HAVE to accept their responsibility for the turn out. Inability to do so is damaging to the party.
He should not have thrown his hat in the ring at all, especially since his approval rating was shit, mostly because of his administration's catastrophic dereliction of duty on justice and domestic terrorism and for protecting the corrupt scrotum instead of pretending to attempt reform.
Announcing his re-election and then backing out for Kamala and skipping the primaries hurt Kamala more than anything else, because it tied her campaign to people hating corruption lover Biden.
Yes, if only you both hadn't decided that continuing a genocide was more important than winning the election. Oh well, you're both still rich and famous and won't feel any of the consequences of what's to come.
Netanyahu has blocked all attempts to reach a hostage deal. The guy that Biden and Harris have "ironclad" support for. You'll have to ask him why he doesn't care about them.
When was the last time America voted for a female President?
I can see Kamala would have made a decent leader, but the Democrats are fighting a movement of chauvinist nationalists, so her selection was a miss step. The 40% of Americans who could not be bothered to vote an issue too.
Yes, the evangelical movements in the US are certainly a thick strand in the rope that will hang America. A deep and persistent conservatism in non-urban areas is the main cable, folk who want America back as it was in the early 1950s, before Rosa Parks and others started asking for justice.
Yup, and his bullshit is macho white America First schtick.
Trying to combat that with a black female was not a great idea, whatever the merits of the candidate.
Most folk vote on superficials and gut instincts.
Realpolitik recognises that too then plays to it, then introduces the nuance via policy.
🤬was going on not only in WI, but reports of abnormalities and absurdities were coming out all the swing states. What is more there to know about bomb threats, Ruzzia was bragging about it and Pres. Biden ignored them - terrorist interference on Elect. day - and did not let Harris do recounts...
Yeah, thanks George Clooney, Susan Sarandon, Stephen King, Rob Reiner, Ashley Judd and you other a$$wipes who thought Biden should pass the torch! You brought this on us. I hope you reap the pain you should receive!!
Ridiculous. Biden didn't have a chance because he simply never ever could have served a 2nd term. Harris almost did the impossible, but Biden fucked it up just a little too much. He shoild have made room for a primary and pass the torch in 2023.
Biden should have stepped away before the primaries. I seriously doubt he would’ve won since everybody was more worried about the cost of eggs and government overreach, plus MAGA all needed to appease their racism and hatred. Trump and Elon cheated.
Agegate's success demonstrated that the owners of traditional and social media are the kingmakers.
Then the minorities moved towards what they from that point saw as the winning side.
We were invaded from within.
He could have unified the party by keeping his promise not to run for a second term. And deal with Covid. And prosecute J6. I wish him well, but he’s going to be remembered as America’s Alexander Kerensky.
Personally I do think he would have won. Racism and misogynism made it harder for a black woman to win. Then there was the woke scare label that was easier to attach to a younger not so known politician.
Still this musing is totally out of place in the context of this speech.
I don't think he could have won. His own party had turned against him. He was dragging down Democratic Senate candidates and he was hemorrhaging big-money donors.
Biden should’ve not run for reelection. He was right in stepping down & Harris’s short campaign helped to reinvigorate the party but Trump had 2 yrs of campaigning & flooding the zone w/ lies, tinfoil & propaganda. Biden got some good legislation passed but it was a mistake for him to run again.
His had him losing, badly. With Trump getting 400(!) electoral votes. They didn't start running her numbers AFAIK until he dropped out or was close to it, but the numbers were still better. All hope wasn't lost.
He is delusional. He never should have run again, and any Democrat would have had a better chance. Biden's decision to run again will go down as one of the worst decisions ever made by a president. Harris is the only reason losses in the house and senate were minimal.
Competing with Merrick Garbage and refusing to reform the scrotum for worst decisions imaginable.
And those will define his legacy, because no one will remember his accomplishments in six weeks when the US becomes a pariah state and the economy crashes.
Unfortunately they should of told him not to run agian and then had the normal process of voting for the dem who would run against Trump i feel like they could of won.
Can you show the evidence because I can show you are wrong. Go look up GN, JS, GW, and AB polling against Trump. No white male or female was going to be your savior.
Biden said he wouldn’t run again and lied. The old man should have sat down. The democrats lost this for all of us. They have proven to be absolutely worthless and are losing support by the day.
This is why I've said Biden isn't the Patriot he think he is. Biden should have deligated to a protogee over a year ago. Staffers knew he didn't have another 4 years in him, back in 2021. He risked the whole of western democracy, by not stepping down way earlier.
Pretty weak for Biden to make this statement given his lousy debate performance and low ratings. He needed to drop out much earlier to give Kamala a fighting chance. Given the sellout of national media, Dems need to figure out other ways to reach voters.
Every single day Republicans were on the attack for four years. Biden never got tough - ever. The old strategy of just governing doesn't work when the other side spends every moment demonizing. The fact that Biden was too stupid to get that is why Kamala lost.
lol if Biden was the option it would have been a Reagan level loss. I hate Trump but Biden was such a dumpster fire and was losing by such large margins he had no shot and Blue states would have been in play
TBH, I thought she was a great candidate. Perfect, no? But there will never be a perfect candidate. She didn't just fall to misogyny and racism. She also fell to Dems looking for a "perfect" candidate and willing to lose to prove a point. How many sat out or wrote in? Probably enough to make the dif
"Unify the party" being code for not quitting earlier and having a full blown primary, which, yes, would have been divisive. But might have yielded a better candidate.
Biden is absolutely right. I think it was manipulated. There is no way tfg won the popular vote and every swing state. Just like there was no way he was shot.
True, but if Biden had chosen justice instead of aiding and abetting treason, the traitor would not have been able to run at all, and felon musk would have gone to jail for buying votes.
Everything's a conspiracy...sounds like the other side. The manipulation was right out in the open, not a secret conspiracy. Elon Musk bought an entire platform and spent millions on manipulative targeted ads, Russia pumped out disinformation aided by the right wing media, etc.
I hate the fact that she lost and I have no doubt that Trump is gonna destroy America.
That said, there is no evidence of election fraud. Don't drag yourself to the Trump level of falsely alleging it. He unfortunately won fair and square.
How exactly did he do that? If he stayed in, you would’ve blamed him. If he dropped out, you would have blamed him. If he died in office, you would have blamed him if he juggled chainsaw while riding a unicycle and playing a harmonica, you would’ve blamed him
He shouldn't have been the candidate in the first place because it was obvious to everyone he was too fucking old and not thinking right anymore. He should not have run for re-election and let an actual primary happen. He dropped out too late, he never should have run again.
Were you aware that the campaign started before the debate? Like two years before. He certainly aged a lot in the last six months, but 2 1/2 years ago he was sharp as ever and kicking ass. He’s still kicking ass, but has just lost a step. He’s still 1000 times smarter than Trump on his best day.
I genuinely thought he would announce in 2022 or early 2023 that he wouldn't run. I think that would have made a Democratic candidate victory much more likely.

Maybe more television shows like "Lioness???"
This is a major embarrassment for our country, and they’re partially to blame.
And you think you won
All of it.
the media needed their horse race... while racism and misogynoir are a sickness holding America back.
Your ego cost us everything.
And the traitor should not have been free, let alone permitted to run again.
That's also Biden's doing.
He chose traitor Merrick Garbage.
Because SOMEBODY did Jack about the media crisis while RW misinformation spread like wildfire across social and major media.
Thanks, Joe. Don't let the door hit you on the way out
Then he should have not run as a Democrat.
Weird how he has no problems pretending to be one of us when it suits him. You'd think if he and folks like you hated us so much you wouldn't ever pretend to be us.

Keep in mind the Palestinians protesters linked Harris to Biden on the genocide issue. A different candidate may have been more palettable to a wider demographic
He was trying to rig the game so that he would face traitor45 a second time, and in his arrogance sacrificed the country for his ego.
Look at search history.
He was the problem because he made himself the problem.
ALL establishment Dems need to kick the bucket and get out of the way. Otherwise, they are only aiding and abbeting.
Sadly, they all know this, but can't give up their own wealth and power to help us.
I hate the ignoramus in chief with a passion, and even I would find it hard to vote for Biden after what I saw in that first debate.
He promised not to seek re-election, and sacrificed the country to his arrogant stupidity instead.
He chose not to meet the moment and the country dies because of his arrogance.
Tim Walz was wasted and compromised as a future candidate.
He should have been in 3 Blue Wall cities every day the whole campaign. The whole campaign should have focused on the Blue Wall - not “nice to haves” like GA and NC.
I’m not saying Biden didn’t make tactical errors, but in the end, we are responsible.
He is part of the reason why the Fourth Reich begins on January 20.
Hitler was nowhere near as stupid as felon musk, let alone his orange mushroom
It took a catastrophic dereliction of duty combined with galactic stupidity to lose to those morons.
Even then though, incompetence can cause problems on its own.
The chances of trump 'turning on the emperor' (musk) at the finale, are quite slim, admittedly.

He would explode 💥

I love Joe but...ya screwed up big guy.
Seems like this shit happened twice.
And because y’all ran a couple of shitty candidates that lost to a circus clown ain’t no woman gonna get to run for another 40 years, congrats!
I’m pissed at that
I do believe it would have been a closer race if he stayed in the race but not sure he would’ve won.
That said, there is no evidence of election fraud. Don't drag yourself to the Trump level of falsely alleging it. He unfortunately won fair and square.
