“There are certain immutable facts of life,” David Axelrod said in a weekend appearance on CNN. “The president just doesn’t seem to come to—he hasn’t come to grips with it.”
“There are certain immutable facts of life, and those were painfully obvious on that debate stage, and the president just doesn’t seem to come to—he hasn’t come to grips with it. He’s not winning this race,” Axelrod said on. “If you just look at the data and talk to people around the country, political people around the country, it’s more likely that he’ll lose by a landslide than win narrowly this race.
And that was before the debate. Following Biden’s lackluster performance on that Georgia stage, Axelrod has driven yet more nails into the coffin, sounding off this week to observe that the president seems “dangerously out of touch” with reality. Though most fast-twitch polls after the debate showed Biden suffering a significant slide in numbers, at least one recent survey reflects something of a recovery: awhich, when put out Saturday, showed Trump leading Biden in seven key swing states by only two points, 47 to 45 percent.
“Mr. President, I’ve never seen a president 36 percent approval get reelected,” the network’s George Stephanopoulos said.Asked how he would feel should he choose to remain in the race and subsequently lose to Trump, Biden replied tersely, “I’ll feel as long as I gave it my all and I did the good as job as I know I can do, that’s what this is about.” The president later clarified that only “the Lord Almighty” could make him drop out of the race.
