Trey Gowdy on 2024: Will It Be Biden Versus Trump — Again?
Former South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy said he believes the 2024 presidential race may come down to a rematch between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
In an interview with Fox News, Gowdy said he thinks the 2024 race is "going to be a referendum on Biden" and that Trump is "the only person who can beat him."
Gowdy said he believes Biden is "vulnerable" because of his age, his handling of the economy, and his low approval ratings.
He said Trump is "the only person who can beat him" because he is "a known quantity" and has a "built-in base of support."
Gowdy also said he believes the 2024 race will be "very close" and that "it could go either way."
He said he believes the outcome of the race will depend on "who turns out to vote" and "who makes the better case to the American people."
Biden's Approval Ratings
Biden's approval ratings have been underwater for most of his presidency. According to a recent poll from the Pew Research Center, Biden's approval rating is at 39%.
The poll also found that 59% of Americans disapprove of the job Biden is doing as president.
Biden's low approval ratings are likely due to a number of factors, including his handling of the economy, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan.
Trump's Popularity
Trump remains a popular figure among Republicans. According to a recent poll from the Trafalgar Group, Trump is the favorite for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
The poll found that Trump is the choice of 48% of Republican voters, followed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis at 24%.
Trump's popularity among Republicans is likely due to a number of factors, including his conservative policies, his populist rhetoric, and his strong base of support among white working-class voters.
The 2024 Race
The 2024 presidential race is still more than two years away, but it is already shaping up to be a close and competitive contest.
If Biden and Trump are the nominees of their respective parties, it will be a rematch of the 2020 election, which Biden won by a narrow margin.
However, the 2024 race is likely to be even closer than the 2020 race, as both Biden and Trump will be older and more vulnerable.
Conclusion
The 2024 presidential race is still a long way off, but it is already shaping up to be a close and competitive contest.
If Biden and Trump are the nominees of their respective parties, it will be a rematch of the 2020 election, which Biden won by a narrow margin.
However, the 2024 race is likely to be even closer than the 2020 race, as both Biden and Trump will be older and more vulnerable.
The outcome of the 2024 race will depend on a number of factors, including the state of the economy, the candidates' campaigns, and who turns out to vote.
