Alyssa Farah Griffin , who served as White House communications director under Donald Trump , flagged a real reality for President Joe Biden on Wednesday as she predicted that he could lose the election to Trump in November.
The View co-host rang some alarm bells about the presidential election.
She explained that she initially believed the presumptive GOP presidential nominees hush money trial was gonna hurt him, noting that its put him in a courtroom as opposed to on the campaign trail .
Im startin to think that it doesnt in the same way, because hes not out there saying crazy things. Hes not saying, Immigrants are poisoning our blood. He actually has to kinda sit there silently with his hands folded, Griffin said.
So what people are seeing when they turn on the media not that crazy Time piece we read yesterday about all the horrifying things hes gonna do in a second term they see violence and they see protests on college campuses, she added. They see young people calling Joe Biden Genocide Joe and it scares people, whether youre from a law and order perspective, whether youre on the fence about Biden.
Griffins made her comments less than 24 hours after counter-protesters attacked pro-Palestinian demonstrators at UCLA while Columbia University called in police to clear an occupied building of protesters calling for divestment from Israel on Tuesday night.
She added that theres a real reality in which Biden could pick up swing voters and moderate Republicans .
He could pick up all the demographics you generally need but lose young progressives and lose the election to Donald Trump. Thats where we are right now, said Griffin, noting that Trump could very well become president in seven months based on an aggregate of polls.
Biden is trailing Trump by less than 0.8 percentage points, as of May 1, according to an average of national polls compiled by FiveThirtyEight .
