President Donald Trump had a private meeting Monday with close advisors at the White House to discuss a wide range of topics, including the 2020 presidential election – and concerns about possibly facing former Vice President Joe Biden, CNBC has learned.
When asked why the president spoke about Biden, one of the people with knowledge of the gathering told CNBC that the former vice president"is the least crazy out of all" the potential Democratic 2020 candidates. This person pointed to Biden's more moderate viewpoints compared to other Democrats running or considering entering the race.
A White House spokeswoman referred CNBC to the Trump campaign. Kayleigh McEnany, the Trump campaign's press secretary, did not return repeated requests for comment. Biden's spokesman declined to comment. Political strategists from both sides of the aisle have mixed views about whether the president and his team should be worried about Biden entering the 2020 race.
Biden, who represented Delaware in the U.S. Senate for more than three decades, ran for president in 1988 and 2008.
Lolololol some competition
No worry at all.
Fake news
He should worry about running against Elmer Fud
At this point he should be concerned about running against a pickle.
He should be worried running against anybody!!
Msm taking bait every single day.
Given that even before the well known gentleman Joe Biden has even announced 54% of Americans dissaprove of Trump. That is a very good margin for Biden the Centrist to work with. A Biden/Harris ticket would win. Then in four years Harris to break the Glass Cieling. 2020 Vote.
FakeNews is NBC
Maybe when you have verifiable facts instead of 3 or 4 unnamed sources, you won't be considered FakeNews anymore. You really think realDonaldTrump is worried about a child-groping pervert? There won't be a Pervert-in-Chief in 2020. JoeBiden MAGA Trump2020 TheGreatAwakening
