Even if President Biden along with the Democratic National Committee forbid a debate, both he and Democratic rival Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will participate in campaign rallies in Chicago.
In order to argue that the U.S. economy is performing well despite inflation highs, elevated interest rates, and poor consumer attitude, the White House has adopted the phrase “Bidenomics,” which Biden will discuss in his address.
A few hours later, Kennedy will take part in a nationally broadcast town hall organized by NewsNation in Chicago, which will feature questions from primary voters in South Carolina as well as New Hampshire, the first two states to cast ballots.
Biden, who party insiders have pushed to the front of the pack in the 2020 contest, is the party’s nominee by default since the Democratic National Committee (DNC) has so far refused to take debates into account.
Prior to securing a resounding victory in South Carolina, Biden suffered crushing defeats in the caucuses in Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada. This was made possible by the support of Representative James Clyburn (D-SC), as well as the black voters.
Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT), a socialist, had won all of the previous races and was poised to win the party’s nomination when leaders, funders, and other candidates came together to support Biden and thwart Sanders’ takeover attempt.
The party is committed to putting an end to any potential insurgency in 2024. However, according to a recent Rasmussen survey, 35% of Democratic Party primary voters believe Kennedy is capable of winning the nomination.
In various locations across the city, the two contenders will be appearing. Biden at the Old Chicago Primary Post Office at 12:00 noon Central Daylight Time (CDT), while Kennedy at the NewsNation studios on the city’s north side at 8:00 PM CDT.
Biden selected the city to serve as host for the Democratic National Convention in 2024 over alternative locations in swing states. Given Chicago’s continued issues with crime and the city’s declining economy, some questioned that decision.
Chicago has a troubled past when it comes to Democratic Party politics; riots broke out there during the 1968 DNC, months after the killing of rebellious candidate Robert F. Kennedy Sr.
