"I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic Party... to defeat Donald Trump... And together, we will win."

"This is a race Democrats can and must win."

"If the Democrats can be unified... then they have a good chance to win in November."

"I’d be very wary and a bit cautious on assuming that Trump is just going to sail to victory."

"Donald Trump’s hopes of claiming the White House just went from near certain to extremely uncertain" now Biden has dropped out.

"This kind of chaos this close to Election Day means Trump is going to win."

"It doesn’t matter whom the Democrats pick... Donald Trump will win in November."

"Donald Trump is now the de facto president."

"If the 2024 presidential election is a race between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris then Trump will win, every time, and most likely win easily."

"Harris will be easier to beat than Joe Biden would have been."

Who Will Win the 2024 US Presidential Election?

Some 50K members of the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) went on a strike Tuesday at the US's East and Gulf Coast ports, the first time since 1977.

As their contracts with 36 ports expired at midnight, dockworkers reportedly began walking picket lines seeking fair new ones and an end to job automation.

At Port Houston and outside the Port of Philadelphia, the protesters reportedly chanted “No work without a fair contract” and displayed signs with the words.

The US Maritime Alliance, representing shipping firms and port associations, Monday offered to raise workers' wages by almost 50%, but couldn't stop the strike.

The Conference Board group reportedly warned the strike would “paralyze US trade.” JPMorgan analysts estimate it would cost the economy up to $5B a day.

While the Taft-Hartley Act allows the US President to stave off a strike for 80 days, Pres. Biden Sunday refused to employ it reportedly citing “collective bargaining.”
