Liam Donovan, senior political strategist in Bracewell’s Policy Resolution Group, was among the 15 experts who discussed what Biden’s withdrawal could mean for the 2024 US elections.
“The fundamental challenge for Harris is the same as it was for Biden: irrespective of age or acuity, American voters tell pollsters they remember the Trump era more fondly than the Biden years, and they believe that Trump’s policies helped them more than Biden’s have. So long as this is the case, victory will remain out of reach. Harris and her running mate will need to dispel the Trump nostalgia, camp out in battleground states, and contrast their vision for the next four years with the dark future they promise under Republican rule,” said Donovan.
