The Divided Democratic Party

The Democratic Party finds itself deeply divided on President Biden’s electoral prospects, with internal tensions threatening his candidacy. Despite facing rebellion within his own party, Biden has chosen to seek advice mainly from family members and a small circle of loyalists who remain steadfast in their belief in his ability to stage a political comeback.

However, there is a growing standoff between Biden and his inner circle, and a significant portion of voters and elected Democrats who are concerned about the potential for an electoral disaster in the upcoming elections. The recent attempted assassination of Donald Trump has somewhat lessened the pressure on Biden to step down, but doubts persist within the party about his chances of success.

During a recent private meeting with donors, Adam Schiff, a California representative eyeing a Senate seat, sounded a cautionary note. He warned that there is a real risk of losing control of the Senate and missing the opportunity to regain the House in the upcoming elections.

Next steps: Sources indicate that the Democratic National Committee is working towards officially confirming Biden as the party’s nominee by the end of July, despite the internal discord.

Fewer migrants: Statistics show that June recorded the lowest number of illegal border crossings since January 2021, but the political implications for Biden remain uncertain.
