0:50Now PlayingMaine Rep. Jared Golden on Tuesday became the second member of Congress to declare he had no confidence in his party’s frontrunner, President Biden, revealing that it “has been clear to me for months … Donald Trump is going to win.”
Golden in an op-ed for the Bangor Daily News said the president’s “poor performance” in his debate against Donald Trump “was not a surprise” but demurred about whether Biden, 81, should step aside and allow another Democratic presidential candidate to emerge, dismissing it as “post-debate hand-wringing.”
“Biden’s poor performance in the debate was not a surprise,” Golden wrote. “It also didn’t rattle me as it has others, because the outcome of this election has been clear to me for months: While I don’t plan to vote for him, Donald Trump is going to win. And I’m OK with that.”
According to a CNN/SSRS poll released on Tuesday, 75% of registered voters after the disastrous debate say the Democratic Party has a better shot at keeping the White House if Biden steps down.
Notably, 56% of Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents who were surveyed agreed with that.
