    Anyone who thinks a sitting president won’t be the party nominee in the next election (barring a case like LBJ who voluntarily chose not to run) is deluding themselves.

    The only thing that could stop Biden at this point is some kind of medical intervention.

      An absolutely massive controversy could see him stepping down or losing the primary, but he hasn’t had anything like that.

      But there’s almost no chance to beat both an incumbency bias and name recognition. Maybe if there was another contender as popular and well known they’d have a shot but probably still slim.
