President-elect Trump was on track to win 400 electoral votes in a head-to-head race against President Biden, according to the White House’s own internal polls.
The news was revealed by Jon Favreau, a one-time speechwriter for former President Obama who now hosts the liberal Pod Save America podcast.
“Then we find out when the Biden campaign becomes the Harris campaign, that the Biden campaign’s own internal polling at the time when they were telling us he was the strongest candidate, showed that Donald Trump was going to win 400 electoral votes,” Favreau said.
“Joe Biden’s decision to run for president again was a catastrophic mistake,” Favreau added. “They refused to acknowledge until very late, that anyone could be upset about inflation. And they just kept telling us that his presidency was historic and it was the greatest economy ever.”
Favreau accused Team Biden of “shivving” Vice President Harris and telling reporters quietly that she could not win.
“I’m done being generous,” Favreau said, echoing a long line of Obama alum who have always disdained Biden and his inner circle.
Former Obama campaign guru David Axelrod has routinely been one of Biden’s harshest critics on cable news and raised issues about his age long before the disastrous July debate.
Once hailed by his party after forcing him out of the race, many Democrats have now turned on the former President, blaming him for Harris’ decisive blowout at the polls on election day.
Pelosi, who called Biden a “great president” when she helped force him out, now says he should have gotten out the race earlier.
A Biden insider disputed the findings telling The Post “there was a small hit after the debate, which worsened after the circular firing squad, but internal polling never showed him down 400.”
Trump ultimately defeated Harris by a decisive 312 electoral votes, with a popular vote victory of around 4 million votes.
