Odds are growing that Joe Biden will be the fourth president impeached by the House, joining Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton and Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, who was twice impeached by the lower chamber, in 2019 and 2021.
While short on evidence so far, House Republicans are plowing forward with their inquiry, even issuing subpoenas for Biden’s family members as part of an effort to prove the president illegally profited from his son’s business dealings.
Biden may still be spared impeachment if the GOP’s probe goes nowhere. And even if not, the Democratic Senate wouldn’t vote to convict and remove the president from office, barring some sort of bombshell revelation. But the impeachment inquiry could still hurt Biden’s reelection chances, sowing greater doubt about a president already grappling with poor job approval.
Also hampering Biden’s chances are two key swing-state demographics. One is rural voters, whom the president is actively trying to win back after years of bleeding rural support. Biden and various lieutenants are starting to visit communities across the country, highlighting a $5 billion campaign that includes investments in infrastructure and sustainable agriculture.
Republicans expanded their rural advantage under Donald Trump, who garnered 59% of the rural vote in 2016 and 65% in 2020. Democrats were able to offset this decline somewhat by making further inroads with suburban voters. But the shift puts them at a disadvantage in key swing states, such as Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, all of which have a higher share of rural residents than the nation overall.
The other is Arab-American and Muslim voters, who have soured on Biden over his response to the latest Israeli-Palestinian conflict. One poll shows support for Biden’s reelection among this voting bloc plunging from 59% in 2020 to 17%. This development poses a problem in Michigan ...

What is the evidence that Biden running for re-election is even a possibility?
Look for impeachment to begin in January.
List me at “short on evidence…….”.
Was this article written in 2016?
Better start soon. Seems like its being slow walked, despite all the evidence of corruption.
Let me rewrite that: "Despite a mountain of hard evidence, House Republicans continue slow-rolling their inquiry..."
“While short on evidence so far”
WUT? Kinda blew a hole in their credibility right off.
Yeah, keep telling yourselves that...
No worries, Pedo Joe will simply call a “cap” and flee to his basement and hope the economy turns around in time while he smell little girls.
Let’s hope so.
1. Biden is the nominee.
2. The election will be fair.
Would not bet on either of those.
See that a lot. What does it mean?
F-Joe Biden is not running for re-election
F-Joe Biden can not run for re-election
F-Joe Biden will not be allowed to run for re-election by the Democrat/Communist Party politburo.
Biden’s Reelection May Be at Risk
You didnt know the meaning? And you have been here longer than me? LoL
Biden is over 80 and Trump’s not far behind. Next election “age” will be on the ballot, and “Biden” won’t imo. I hope Trump won’t either, but savvy Dems might put him there.
Too bad. So sad
Jill is still alive
He won’t be impeached. at least a dozen or so gutless rinos will vote against. Hell, I’d bet the vote for the formal proceedings won’t even pass. Republican cowardice is exceeded only by their collective stupidity. i posted once before: the dems are the mafia and the pubbies are the cops paid to look the other way....
