President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump dominated the Super Tuesday primaries. It is increasingly likely, if not certain, that they will face off in the 2024 presidential election.
This reality is prompting Democrats to “hit the panic button,” according to a new report from The Hill.
Interestingly, analysis from this outlet points to two factors creating panic among the left — the weakness of their candidate ahead of 2024 and the fact that Trump's campaign is not collapsing as they expected.
“Democrats are starting to hit the panic button as former President Trump's campaign fails to implode, and a series of polls suggest President Biden is weaker than he was four years ago,” they wrote.
The implosion referred to is the numerous investigations and criminal charges brought against Trump by the Biden administration or Democratic prosecutors.
“Many Democrats thought Trump's legal troubles would sink him, but the Supreme Court unanimously ruled Monday in his favor in the 14th Amendment case,” The Hill wrote. “Other high-profile trials have been postponed, raising doubts about whether they will reach verdicts before Election Day.”

Another race between Trump and Biden is causing indigestion for Democrats
It is completely understandable to analyze the race from the standpoint of President Biden being a weak candidate. Much weaker than it was even in 2020. Or in terms of the strategy of trying to capture the votes of the battleground states.
In fact, the hill Do I remember the polls in many of these states being bad news for Biden, which pleased the Trump campaign.
Even more surprising is the admission that the Democratic Party was too dependent on the legal system. Not the electoral system
And Which It lends a modicum of credibility to those critics who suggest that these criminal prosecutions were deliberately designed to interfere with the 2024 presidential election.
The report cites Senator Peter Welch (D-Virginia), who appeared angry at the Supreme Court's decision to review presidential immunity.
The move, as The Policy Insider reported, potentially delays Trump's impeachment trial after The election.
Welch was furious that the decision was “outrageous” while insisting there was “no excuse for it”.
What's worse is that Trump is not collapsing, but the cases against him are We areis the idea that this actually results in the former president emerging stronger than before.
David Axelrod, a former senior policy advisor to President Obama, has seized on this idea.
“All these accusations, all these lawsuits and so on, gave him an opportunity to seem invincible, to seem strong, to be resilient, and that actually helped him in some ways,” he lamented.
Even if the Supreme Court rules against Trump on J6 presidential immunity, there is also a case before the Supreme Court regarding the DOJ's use of the “obstruction” charge https://t.co/wXwQbUp4EZ

Court cases are falling apart, Trump is not
Efforts by Democratic-led states to keep Trump off the ballot have met with stunning success at the Supreme Court as well.
The unanimous decision in Colorado's ballot effort highlights how weak the legal arguments against the former president are. This again raises concerns that it has been pursued almost exclusively as a means of eliminating Biden's biggest political opponent.
But wait there's more.
“The biggest concern for Democrats is that the criminal cases brought against Trump by Special Counsel Jack Smith in Washington and Miami and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in Georgia are stuck in limbo and may not be resolved by Election Day,” The Hill wrote. .
They have put all their eggs in that basket of wretches, and one by one they will all be smashed.
It's the economy, you idiot
The column also notes that Democrats believe they are struggling to carry President Biden across the finish line in a race against Trump because, as they often say, Americans don't understand that the economy is really good right now.
“Voters seem to focus on and emphasize data that is less favorable to Democrats and tend to cut back on things that are being worked on that would have a very significant benefit to the American economy,” says Ross K. Baker, professor emeritus of political science. science at Rutgers University told the outlet.
Biden is trailing Trump in the polls in several battleground states, and the Resistance Party thinks it's your fault for being ignorant of all the good things the White House has done for you.
