The Democrats Challenging Biden


NewsNation’s
Democratic Presidential Candidate Forum
with
Marianne Williamson, Dean Phillips
and Cenk Uygur


President Joe Biden’s polling numbers continue to sink. Polls are also consistently showing that the majority of Democratic voters want options to Biden in the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election. And there are Democratic candidates challenging Biden for the party’s nomination in this important election. These challengers are not getting media attention, however, due to the cozy relationship between the pro-Biden DNC and the so-called “liberal” media establishment.

But cracks are appearing in this wall of media silence. Earlier this week, New England College in New Hampshire hosted the first 2024 Democratic presidential debate, featuring Marianne Williamson (currently polling second to Biden) and Minnesota Representative Dean Phillips. And just last night, NewsNation hosted a forum featuring Biden’s three main Democratic challengers: Williamson, Phillips, and political commentator and media host Cenk Uygur. Sadly, Biden is declining any debate interaction with his challengers.

In last night’s forum, Biden’s three Democratic challengers shared with NewsNation host Dan Abrams their policy platforms on democracy, the economy, foreign policy, and more. Following is this forum/debate in its entirety. (NOTE: It runs for 47-minute.)
