‘I am just not sure how Biden can beat Trump’

A longtime Democratic donor, Christy Jared is among those who once enthusiastically supported Joe Biden but whose view of his re-election chances have since dimmed.

On multiple occasions, Jared has donated to Biden’s election campaign and can list off multiple reasons why she thinks he’s a better candidate than Donald Trump (like having her student loans reduced under the president’s student loan forgiveness programme).

There’s just one problem.

“I am just not sure how Biden can beat Trump,” she says.

“Biden has done an excellent job as a president and as a public servant. [But] we need someone now who is vigorous and strong.

“If there is a way for him to step down and let Vice-President Kamala Harris takeover, I would be supportive of that.”
