Christine Favocci writes at Gateway Pundit about one expert’s assessment of a key challenge for President Biden’s re-election.

One of the many weaknesses Democrats have is their inability to understand the opposition.

This was most evident following former President Donald Trump’s upset victory against Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election.

Democrats were left shell-shocked and bewildered because they just didn’t get Trump’s appeal, nor did they comprehend how repulsive the former secretary of state was to ordinary Americans.

Still, it seems they may get another crack at learning this lesson in the 2024 presidential race, if MSNBC host and former White House press secretary Jen Psaki is any indication.

She correctly identified the threat a strong third-party candidate presents to President Joe Biden’s re-election bid when commenting on a New York Times piece with the same warning.

However, Psaki repeated her party’s mistakes by dismissing the opposition and misunderstanding the candidate’s appeal, this time with the dark horse independent Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Speaking with Mike Brzezinski on “Morning Joe” Monday, Psaki revealed the major threat to Biden’s 2024 re-election prospects.

“These third-party candidates are a huge, huge, huge problem, and there’s a number of them,” Psaki said.

The “Inside With Jen Psaki” host went on to mention Kennedy specifically, noting his name recognition in places like “Georgia … where the Kennedy name is beloved.”

Psaki claimed that he could slip by in the battleground state because voters “may just not know a lot about the fact that he is an anti-vaxxer, who’s a conspiracy theorist.”

She added that the Democratic National Committee is attempting to get the word out about the perceived problems with Kennedy, an outspoken environmental attorney who initially announced his candidacy as a Democratic challenger to Biden.

“But it needs to be broad, people need to be shouting it from the rooftops, because this is one of the biggest threats to Joe Biden being re-elected, is these third-party candidates,” Psaki said.
