NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: John Kasich, former Republican governor of Ohio and MSNBC political analyst shocked Fox News panelists after saying that Joe Biden may not become the Democratic presidential nominee for the 2024 election. 

Citing data from recent polls, the dissatisfaction of people with the state of the economy, Biden's poor public speaking events, and his fear over upcoming presidential debates, Kasish told host Jose Díaz-Balart that the party was likely to look for another candidate to take on the presumptive GOP nominee, former President Donald Trump.

John Kasich says 'real possibility' that Biden wont be Democrat nominee

Mentioning that the incumbent was trailing behind the former president in swing state polls, Kasich told Balart, "The fact that the economy is not turning, the fact that people are saying it’s a terrible economy for them, the fact that they’ve said they don’t have any confidence Joe Biden can fix it, his public appearances have not been very good, and now they’ve agreed to two debates, which is as out there as you can get."

"I’m starting to wonder that there’s a real possibility that Joe Biden will not be the Democrat nominee," he observed, which prompted the host to question his source of information.

"I see what these numbers are like, Jose," replied Kasich. "I mean, you had a poll, that Siena poll, (that) indicated last week, not only did they think he couldn’t fix the economy – and they put Trump way ahead of him – but they also said they’re not sure he’s as competent as Trump. I mean these are really significant numbers."

Though a Republican himself, Kasich has long opposed Donald Trump, supporting Biden in 2020, as well as in his re-election bid. He even appeared in an ad for the incumbent during his first presidential campaign, telling voters, "America is at a crossroads," and to not go down "the wrong road" with Trump.

He claimed that Biden’s public appearances "just aren’t working," and appeared frustrated with his campaign "talking about ‘Bidenomics’ all that time, and saying, oh no, everything’s been great."
