Dana Perino reacts to CNN’s list of potential Biden replacements| News Today

Fox host Dana Perino reacted to CNN’s list of possible Democratic candidates in the 2024 election who could “replace” President Biden on Wednesday in “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”

The “most likely” candidate if not Biden, according to CNN, would be Vice President Kamala Harris. Others included Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Senator Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., And Senator Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.

“[In] This list that CNN made, the first four people they appoint have already run for president and lost – what does that say about the quality of their campaigns? ”Perino said. another thing is that the Democrats were practically hanging on by a thread. until President Trump arrived, then they unified [with] their disgust for him. But they’re trying to revive this playbook. “

Perino added that Democrats should watch Colorado Governor Jared Polis, who is a “liberal Democrat” who “is also someone who is not afraid to talk about COVID … [He has said] ‘I’m not going to tell people what to wear on their faces, we’re moving forward.’ “

Polis said on Friday that public health officials should not “tell people what to wear.”

“Public health … would say to always wear a mask because it decreases the flu and decreases [other airborne illnesses]. But it’s not something you need; you don’t tell people what to wear. You don’t tell people to wear a jacket when they go out in the winter and force them to [wear it]. If they have frostbite, it’s their fault, ”added the governor.

“The other thing he did was he talked about eliminating state income tax in Colorado so the state can stay competitive. So that’s a different and new thinking. . And I think Democrats might want to pay attention to that. “

The CNN list said the growing media attention to who might show up on the Democratic ticket is due to Biden’s age and his low approval ratings.

In defense of his declining approval, Biden criticized the American people for believing in disinformation. “People are getting so much inaccurate information that they’re told… Armageddon is on the way,” Biden said.

Biden also said on “The Tonight Show,” facetiously, that he no longer checks his poll numbers, especially after their recent plunge into the 1940s.
