Fake news.
Biden gets lucky due to anti Trump backlash.
Both are unelectable in 2024.
I could be mistaken but if Biden makes it to a tenure of over 2 yrs...basically after February - then quits, it Could lead...not that it will in any portion of the multi-verse...Could lead to 10yrs of Kamala.
Both Parties - Please get 2 decent candidates asap.

Whats wrong with Kamala? Dems have some good people. Buttegieg seems good. Kinzinger another. Republicans - Liz Chaney seems the most sensible of that lot.
Kamala is the least of your worries
Not a big fan of Harris, but she is infinitely more preferable to the sort of Republican contenders being touted for a run in 2024.
Like I said, better candidates required
Edit;...and not just that side of the atlantic

It’s tough to tell because he’s broken so completely from the party line and pushed back on their extremism, but Kinzinger is technically a Republican.
Think that an over simplification myself.
Did Trump and his awful candidates make a big difference, of course. But Biden was smart about highlighting them as an issue, he aggressively campaigned that their election denialism meant that democracy was at risk. Biden is also a particularly good foil for Trump in a way many other dems are not.

Also some of the policies that Biden pushed, like student debt forgiveness which probably helped get the usually low midterm turnout of younger voters up, would have had an impact.
Turnout among young voters was the second highest for a midterm in past 30 years
About 27% of voters between the ages of 18-29 cast a ballot in the midterm election this year, according to an early estimate.

He has also remained vocally supportive of unions, which is not only a rarity in Western leaders but very popular among younger voters.Think that an over simplification myself.

The question for the Democrats, and Biden is that is Trump going to gracefully disappear and accept his toxic presence, or is he going to hang around like a bad smell?
I have a sense in what it will be.
He won't go quietly
Edit; if they do manage to sort of freeze him out, he'll go as an independent (republican) and split the vote again.
He is the Democrats best weapon.

The best scenario
Not if you're a Republican.
If (when) Trump goes 'Independent' he sidesteps the real possibility of losing in the primaries, he'll then go on to fracture the right of centre vote.
