Abbreviated Pundit Roundup: The 2024 election is just around the corner

Biden 2024 splits Dems but most would back him: AP-NORC poll

Despite the reluctance of many Democrats to see Biden run for another term, 78% of them say they approve of the job he’s doing as president. And a total of 81% of Democrats say they would at least probably support Biden in a general election if he is the nominee — 41% say they definitely would and 40% say they probably would.

This is why talking about so-called “tepid” support for Biden is foolish. The election is a binary, not Biden vs the perfect candidate (which Trump is decidedly not, and neither is the less likely Ron DeSantis).
