In private conversations, former president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton beseech fundraisers to continue lending support to President Joe Biden’s campaign. This follows the Democratic Party’s reservations over Biden’s dismal performance in the debate versus Donald Trump.
The Clintons are honoring Biden’s choices, an insider told CNN. It would be more true, though, to describe the Clintons as submissive to the process, according to a different source who recently spoke with them.
According to the second source, Biden is the presumed nominee of the party regardless of what others may say or believe. This is true unless he decides to withdraw from the race in 2024 or the delegates choose to support someone else.
Furthermore, this source has not expressed their personal views on whether Biden ought to continue aiming for a second term.
Donors are concerned about Biden’s campaign because of its recent financial difficulties.
Speaking to CNN, a significant contributor expressed doubts about the campaign’s ability to continue without enough funding, pointing out a recent decline in fundraising events.
“I’m not sure how you run a campaign without funding using an expanding electoral map. I have no idea what they’re doing. I’m not sure,” a significant Democratic contributor stated on Friday. “This strategy of believing you can win without money is something I’ve never seen.”
They also saw a noticeable slowdown in the number of emails sent out by the campaign in recent weeks regarding events and fundraisers. They said, “They seem far and few between.”
Notwithstanding these reservations, the 81-year-old’s effort has garnered a lot of support from the general public and has planned future fundraisers in a number of significant locations, including Chicago and Northern and Southern California.
Speaking on MSNBC on Saturday, Biden campaign spokeswoman Kevin Munoz stated, “He will be doing big fundraisers and focusing on continuing to bolster grassroots fundraising.”
Additionally, Vice President Kamala Harris is interacting with contributors and protecting the Democratic Representative. On Saturday, Harris went to a fundraising function in Massachusetts.
