Democratic Maine Rep. Jared Golden is out with a new op-ed in which he predicts that former President Donald Trump will win the election and that American democracy will continue to function.
The Bangor Daily News published the piece on Tuesday under the headline “Donald Trump is going to win the election and democracy will be just fine.” In his op-ed, Golden characterized President Joe Biden’s performance in last week’s debate as “poor,” but clarified his view that Trump is likely to win in November because of the country’s economic woes more than any other factor.
