Democratic leaders are publicly rallying behind Joe Biden to be their guy for the 2024 presidential election — potentially setting up a rematch with Donald Trump — but it is reportedly a different story behind the scenes.

According to a recent Politico article, Biden faces doubt from some “high-level Democrats” who may only support the president because they fear what a Biden-less ticket could look like.

“High-level Democrats are rallying to President Biden’s reelection, not because they think it’s in the best interest of the country to have an 82-year-old start a second term but because they fear the potential alternative: the nomination of Kamala Harris and election of Donald Trump,” the report read.

In 2020, Biden and Vice President Harris defeated Trump when they received more votes than any other presidential ticket in U.S. history. But, just three years later, Biden has an approval rating in the 40s and numerous verbal slipups have caused headaches for the White House press team.

At the same NGA winter meeting, a congressman “said Harris wasn’t an option,” Politico reported.

Former White House and Pentagon official Douglas MacKinnon said if not Biden or Harris, Democrats could look to a past superstar to create a more viable ticket.

Former first lady Michelle Obama’s name was floated ahead of the last Democratic presidential primary, although she has repeatedly denied any interest in seeking office. At 59, and with her “it” factor (as McKinnon labeles it) she could emerge as a top candidate and Democrats could look to push her to run.
