Forbes Media Chairman Steve Forbes said Friday on the Fox News Channel the state of the economy will cost President Biden the 2024 Democratic nomination.
Forbes argued 83% of voters feel the economy is “only fair/poor.”
He also said Democrats “cannot control spending even though it is $2 trillion higher than it was a couple of years ago. People just throw up their hands and say these people are out of control. … And I think that’s why next year Joe Biden will not be the Democratic Party nominee.
Forbes further argued Biden won’t be nearly as damaged by the Republicans’ relentless effort to prove son Hunter Biden has engaged in corrupt overseas business deals.
“They can sweep the Hunter stuff away — but that has a stench out there. So you have a poor economy, you have a president people feel is not up to the job anymore, certainly not for the next four years. So I don’t know what the scenario is going to be, but they cannot have him running in November of 2024,” he said.
