Trump predicts Biden will stay in the race
Political
Former President Trump on Monday said it appeared to him that President Biden will remain in the race despite calls from some elected Democrats for him to step aside following a disastrous performance in last month’s debate, The Hill reports.
“It looks to me like he very well may stay in. He’s got an ego, and he doesn’t want to quit,” Trump told Sean Hannity on Fox News.
Trump, who has been criminally charged over his attempts to subvert the 2020 election results, predicted that if Biden does drop out, Vice President Harris would become the nominee. But he said Biden “has all the power” because he secured the overwhelming majority of delegates through primary voting.
Biden has faced intense scrutiny from Democrats following his June 27 debate with Trump, during which Biden frequently struggled to complete his train of thought or land many blows on issues like abortion or the economy.
Several House Democrats have suggested Biden should step aside as the nominee or predicted he would lose to Trump, while numerous other Democratic lawmakers have said Biden must show he is capable of campaigning more vigorously to defeat Trump in November.
