Biden, Harris officially announce their 2024 re-election campaign - to serve full 8 years per spox
[FoxNews] President Biden announced that he and Vice President Harris will seek re-election in a video released early Tuesday morning.

In the video titled "Freedom," President Biden echoed his 2020 campaign message of battling for the "soul of our nation," uniting the country, and supporting the middle class, his campaign said. The video opens with footage of the Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol protest.
"Fweedom"
"Freedom. Personal freedom is fundamental to who we are as Americans. There’s nothing more important. Nothing more sacred," Biden, 80, said in the video. "That’s been the work of my first term: To fight for our Democracy. This shouldn’t be a red or blue issue."

He added: "This is not a time to be complacent. That’s why I’m running for re-election. Because I know America. I know we are good and decent people. And I know we are still a country that believes in honesty and respect, and treating each other with dignity. That we’re a nation where we give hate no safe harbor. And we believe that everyone is equal, and that everyone should be given a fair shot to succeed in this country."

Today’s announcement includes details about his initial campaign leadership team, which includes Sens. Tammy Duckworth, Chris Coons, Reps. Lisa Blunt-Rochester, Jim Clyburn, Veronica Escobar, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg. They will all serve as national co-chairs for the campaign. The campaign also announced Campaign Manager Julie Chávez Rodríguez and Principal Deputy Campaign Manager Quentin Fulks in their respective roles.

Biden and Harris remain immensely unpopular, with Biden's approval ratings in the low 40s in most polls. His job performance rating currently stands at 44% approve vs. 56% disapprove, according to the latest Fox News national survey.

Fox News polls show the president’s approval rating hovers at a low point among several key voting groups, including women (43% now vs. 42% low), voters ages 45+ (41% vs. 39% low), suburban voters (41% vs. 39% low), rural voters (31% vs. 30% low) and Democrats (81% vs. 78% low) – Democratic men in particular (79% vs. 78% low).

He also scores lowly among suburban women with 41% approval.

"Biden’s numbers cratered in the Fall of 2021 after the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle and the onset of hyperinflation," said Republican pollster Daron Shaw, who conducts the Fox News poll with Democrat Chris Anderson, referencing the death of 13 Americans when Biden withdrew forces from Afghanistan. "Since then, his approval has barely moved, despite a midterm election, economic ups and downs, and several legislative policy rollouts."

Biden to serve all 8 years as president, Karine Jean-Pierre clarifies

[GEO.TV] White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has corrected her initial statement on whether President Biden plans to serve all eight years of his two terms if he is re-elected in 2024. Initially, Jean-Pierre evaded the question, saying that it was up to the President to decide. However,
the man who has no enemies isn't anybody and has never done anything...
Jean-Pierre later corrected her statement on Twitter, confirming that if re-elected, Biden would indeed serve both terms.

"Does the president plan to serve all eight years?" a news hound questioned.

"I'm just not going to get ahead of the president. That's something for him to decide. I'm just not going to get ahead of it, and there's a 2024 campaign and anything related to that, I would refer you to [the campaign]," Jean-Pierre replied.

Jean-Pierre's initial response came in the wake of Biden and Vice President Kámala Harris
Former Oakland mayor Willie Brown's former mistress, now a senatrix from California former 2020 Dem presidential hopeful, and Joe Biden's wing nut...
's announcement that they would run for re-election. Speculation had mounted about Biden's age and whether he would step down after serving a single term.

Jean-Pierre later clarified her statement on Twitter in less than an hour later, saying, "As you know, we take following the law serious. So I wanted to be sure that I didn't go into 2023 more than is appropriate under the law. But I can confirm that if re-elected, [Biden] would serve all 8 years."

#1 BRETT BRUEN: What a bloody disgrace! Biden maroons 16,000 Americans in the Sudan warzone… then blithely demands four more years. I was an Obama diplomat who rescued US citizens aboard - and this is shameful

#2 A Video Announcement???

They don't trust Biden to do a live "I'm Running" event without making a fool of himself.

#3 Those behind the curtain still operate under the delusion that we don't know they're there, so they come with idiotic shite like this.

#4 Which is why he said that deal at the conference the other day about how he, sorry 'he', decides where earmarked money goes.

"You want your Infrastructure funds, better make sure I win."
