(DCNF)—The hosts of “Pod Save America” disputed former President Joe Biden’s claims that he would have defeated President Donald Trump in the 2024 race during a Friday appearance on “The View.”
After Trump’s victory in November, Biden expressed regret according to The Wall Street Journal about dropping out of the race and suspected that he could have won reelection. The three “Pod Save America” co-hosts agreed there was no chance that the former president could have defeated Trump based on the public polling expressing concern about his age and mental acuity.
“Do any of you agree with Joe Biden that he would’ve won?” co-host Joy Behar asked.
“He would not have won,” former Obama-era speechwriter Jon Favreau said. “His own polling showed that Donald Trump was gonna win 400 electoral votes, this item maybe don’t blame Joe Biden for. His people, people closest to him, refused to show him the polling, the real polling.”
Behar argued that Biden may have had a higher chance of defeating Trump because he is a “white man” rather than a black woman like Vice President Kamala Harris.
“Pod Save America” founder Jon Lovett said the public can allow Biden to live his “fantasy” that he would have won, and argued Harris’ candidacy prevented the Democrats from suffering even greater electoral losses.
“If Joe Biden wants to spend the rest of his days believing he would have won, I think that’s a gift we can all give him,” Lovett said. “I’m fine with that. We’ve all had elderly relatives that have a little fantasy and I’m fine with that.”
The belief that Biden could have won if he had remained in the race was not commonly held among the Democratic establishment or the previous White House, according to The Wall Street Journal. White House aides and several Democratic leaders believed the party would have lost more congressional seats and had suffered an even worse loss in the Electoral College.
Nearly 40 Democratic lawmakers publicly called on Biden to drop out of the presidential race regarding his performance during the June 27 debate against Trump. His performance raised serious concerns about the then-president’s mental ability to serve another term.
Biden announced his exit from the race in a July 21 statement to protect the “best interest of [his] party.” In a follow-up statement, he endorsed Harris. Trump defeated the then-vice president by securing 312 electoral votes and winning all seven swing states.
Democratic strategist James Carville also slammed Biden on Wednesday for his belief he could have won the race on an episode of his podcast “Politics War Room.” “And what he’s done to himself is no one wants to hear from this guy anymore,” Carville said. “Okay, just go to your condo in Rehoboth [Delaware] and stay there. And that’s not because we’re bad people or we’re mean people. It was all his doing. All his doing. This entire thing. And this kind of petty back and forth, ‘Oh I would have beat Trump,’ and no one fucking believes that at all,” Carville stated.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
