It appears that some prominent voices on the political left are starting to express doubt about the Democratic Party’s chances in the upcoming presidential election. Cenk Uygur, known for co-creating “The Young Turks,” made a bold statement about President Joe Biden’s re-election prospects, indicating that he believes former President Donald Trump will win the election.

Uygur’s prediction may come as a surprise to those familiar with his outspoken liberal views. Despite endorsing Senator Bernie Sanders in the 2020 primary, Uygur has made it clear that Biden is not his preferred Democrat. He has voiced criticisms of Biden in the past but has also defended the president against his detractors.
Recent polling showing Trump leading in key battleground states has likely contributed to Uygur’s pessimism about the Democratic Party’s prospects in the upcoming election. It seems that even those on the left are starting to sound the alarm for the Democrats.
