President Joe Biden’s Democrat primary opponent, Rep. Dean Phillips, has shared a stunning prediction about the presidential election if former President Donald Trump becomes the Republican nominee against President Biden.

He spoke to NewsNation host Dan Abrams where he said that he believes those in power are attempting to block his candidacy and that he believes former President Trump will defeat President Biden.

“I’m a threat to a system many people are trying to protect,” the representative said. “The conversations are all being had privately, not publicly.”

“Why are more people not taking your candidacy seriously? I talk to people who are well-informed about politics, and I say I had Dean Philips on my show the other day, and they say, “Who’s Dean Philips?” the host said.

“Sure. Two reasons. The country doesn’t know me yet, which is going to take some time. The bigger issue is I’m a threat to a system many people are trying to protect, and that is a problem. It is a duopoly. It is a political-industrial complex that is always focused on a coronation, not really focused on a competition, particularly when you have an incumbent president,” the Democrat candidate said.

“But this is an unusual time, as you just pointed out. Donald Trump is going to beat Joe Biden. I’m going to say it again., Donald Trump is going to beat Joe Biden. Most people know that,” he said.

“The conversations are all being had privately, not publicly. That’s the difference, it is going to take a little time.”

He went on to say, “I think people who are not being alarmist about Donald Trump are delusional! That’s the whole reason I’m here today. That’s why I’m running for president. It’s not what I anticipated. I tried for a year to encourage the president to pass the torch, I spent the better part of six months encouraging candidates who were better known than I am right now to enter the stage.

“It’s going to take some time for that delusion to pass, but I have not seen one shred of evidence that Joe Biden is positioned to beat Donald Trump. Every single poll relative to his approval rating, intuition back home, conversation everywhere. This sounds ridiculous,” he said.

“I ask every person I encounter in my campaign, ‘Are you ready for change?’

“I found three people, we keep count, three people have said they are happy with either Joe Biden or Donald Trump. That’s why 75% of the country right now is saying they don’t want this, and the political-industrial complex is trying to protect the status quo and not encourage competition for Democrats,” he said.
