Opinion: Democrats shouldn't be so quick to throw Biden overboard
CNN
Should President Joe Biden run for reelection? It's a question that is now circulating in the media, with ongoing stories about Democrats who are considering whether another candidate might be better positioned to win in 2024, writes Julian Zelizer.
Given Biden's low approval ratings and a host of problems from inflation to gun violence that plague the country, Democrats are increasingly worried about the President's ability to win a second time. And with former President Donald Trump contemplating whether to announce his candidacy for 2024 in the coming months, the stakes couldn't be any higher. The findings of the House select committee on January 6, which highlight the grave danger Trump posed to our democracy, only amplify these concerns.
After recent burglaries at homes of professional athletes – including Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce – the NFL and NBA have issued security memos to teams and players warning that “organized and skilled groups” are increasingly targeting players’ residences for such crimes.
