CNN reports that aides of Joe Biden are extremely fearful that he will lose the election to Donald Trump.

Aides ⁢Concerned About Potential Loss to Trump

Aides ‌close to President Joe Biden ‌told CNN they are worried about a​ potential loss to former president Donald Trump.

“Operatives”​ on the Biden campaign told CNN they’re “terrified by what would happen” if Biden lost, which they “worry is a very real possibility.”

The sources point to polls⁣ that show voters feel​ indifferent or‍ negatively about⁣ Biden, ⁤suggesting a lack of excitement among voters that‌ could be costly in a rematch with Trump. ⁣One aide said they “don’t need people sprinting to their polling ⁢places—as long as they make it.”

Aides also said that the ​closeness between Biden and Trump in polls is‍ leaving them stressed, CNN reported:

Several Biden aides⁤ themselves tell CNN that ⁤looking at Trump’s wide ⁢lead in every primary ⁤poll – and no clear leader in a hypothetical Biden-Trump rematch – leaves them with a particular kind of existential stress.

The admission from aides in the Biden world is the latest sign of stress‌ for those on the left ⁣about Biden’s viability.

The ⁣report comes after the White House moved to pressure news organizations to increase​ criticism of the House impeachment inquiry surrounding the ​president’s involvement in his family’s ‍business dealings.
