Billionaire investor and Democrat mega-donor Bill Ackman criticized President Joe Biden, calling him unfit and urging him to step aside for the 2024 election.
Ackman believes Biden’s ego is preventing him from making the right decision and that he is handing the election to Trump by delaying an announcement about being a one-term president.
“Biden, I think, he’s done,” Ackman said. “I mean, it’s embarrassing. It’s embarrassing for the country having him as a presidential candidate, let alone the president of the country. It’s crazy, and it’s just going to get worse and worse.”
Ackman also discussed the GOP primary and highlighted Michigan’s upcoming primary as potentially influential.
Despite his disappointment in Biden, Ackman feels it is time for Biden’s family to support him in recognizing his legacy may not be positive.
“The worst of his legacy is his ego that prevents him from stepping aside, and that’s it,” Ackman said. “It’s his ego. And it is so wrong and so bad.”
“Being president of the United States is like some combination of wrestling, marathon running, being a tri-athlete: You have got to be in serious physical shape and at the top of your game to represent this country, and he is a far cry from that,” Ackman said.
“Every day he waits, he’s handing the election to Trump, because it’s harder and harder for an alternative candidate to surface.”
“[Nikki] Haley, who I like and who I have supported, does not look like she’s going to make it,” he said. “Trump is really kind of running the table.
“So a vote for Haley as an independent in Michigan may be a throw-away of your vote.”
Biden’s “doing very poorly in Michigan,” Ackman said.
“His polls are terrible,” he said. “The Muslim community is not happy with him and he really has spent no time there. If he’s embarrassed in Michigan, it could be a catalyst for him withdrawing.”
Ackman noted that he is “done” with Biden, even if Biden is not going to listen to calls to be a one-term president.
“I’m upset with him and upset with his family,” Ackman said. “I’m upset with his wife. This is the time where the people closest to you have to put their arms around you and say, ‘You know, Dad, you know, honey, you’ve done your thing. This is going to be your legacy, and it’s not going to be a good one.'”
