While stumping for Rep. Dean Phillips’ (D-MN) presidential campaign and long-shot bid for the 2024 Democratic nomination in Manchester, Andrew Yang said Joe Biden is not the “right fit” for 2024 as he was in 2020, and compared the president to the decline in the New England Patriots.

“So, Dean Phillips, he raised his hand a number of months ago and said: Hey, guys, I’m not sure Joe Biden should run for reelection. Like, I think that, you know, it might be time for the next generation,” the former 2020 Democratic candidate said.

“A lot of people share the same opinion. Some people who supported Joe Biden, like me — I was a campaign surrogate for Joe. Joe is a good, decent man, a true public servant, has gotten a lot of things done, but I don’t think he is the right fit for 2024, as opposed to 2020,” Yang continued.

“In 2020, the Patriots were 12-4 and first in the AFC East. 2020 and 2024 are not the same years,” he told the crowd of voters in New Hampshire.

“Joe Biden — who I supported last time — in my view, is going to deliver us to Trump the sequel. Dean Phillips saw this and said, you know what? I am going to do something about it. And Dean Phillips is the only one with the courage, the character, and conviction to go against the grain, to go against the legion of followers in Washington, D.C., who would put their careers above their country and said, you know what? America deserves a choice. America deserves a choice in its leaders,” Yang later added.
