'Not Real Comfortable': Left-Wing Alarms Frantically Sound as Biden's Campaign Continues to Fall Apart
Recent polling has established that Joe Biden is the most unpopular president in modern history. Now, as the embattled president's seemingly unorganized, no-message, gaffe-filled 2024 campaign continues to run on hate-filled fumes, an increasing number of Democrats are frantically sounding the alarm in public.
So is left-wing Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
The ever-pleasant Sanders is beside himself:
There is no question, [that] it is very hard for young people, I think for most Americans, to be excited about what is going on right now. President [Biden] has got to change course.
A statement like the above from Socialist Bernie™ wouldn't have been all that newsworthy when the floundering Biden was Joe Biden 1.0 — moderate, by today's Democrat "standards" — but Biden 2.0 has tacked so far to the left throughout his presidency that his policies are virtually indistinguishable from those of Sanders.
Then again, there's no such thing as too far left on Planet Bernie.
As Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss). put it — amusingly so, in my opinion — he's "not real comfortable" with the level of "diversity" in Biden's campaign.
Well, I think those of us who helped Joe Biden get elected president are not real comfortable at this point with what we're seeing. It just appears that the people who were engaged in helping craft the message and direction of the 2020 campaign are not actively involved in this campaign.
Now, that doesn't mean — it's not too late to broaden the participation. But I think part of that discomfort is, in order to win, you have to have your best team effort. That team effort includes who he has, but he also needs men and women of color in the room, Latino, Asian. I think it's that the tent is too small right now.
"And so I think it’s just a matter of, you know, getting some more people under the tent," Thompson reiterated. "And, so, how can we do this better?"
I'll only counter with this: Biden nominated the first woman of color to the Supreme Court, picked the first woman —of color, as well — as his vice president, and has named multiple people of color to key administration positions, Rep. Thomas.
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) is also among key Democrats freaked out over the direction of Biden's failing campaign.
We all have concerns. We want to make sure it's a victorious campaign. I think Joe Biden has had as successful an administration as any president, perhaps since Franklin Roosevelt. And our job is to make sure the American people know how it affected them and their families so positively. We need to make the case] more.
In other words, which multiple Democrat politicians have suggested — out loud — along the way, rank-and-file Democrat voters aren't smart enough to understand how good they have it under Joe's stellar leadership. This is nonsense, of course, but there it is, just the same.
Even First Lady Jill Biden's former top aide and spokesperson Michael LaRosa has openly criticized Biden's campaign strategy.
New CNN Poll: Trump has higher favorables+Biden has higher unfavorable. This is inexcusable for [a] man universally known for his character + integrity. It's a result of failing to respond to smears, lies, conspiracies, and disinfo for months allowing a void of info to be filled.
Shameful that POTUS's team has allowed this narrative to congeal over the past two years. The only people who can help change the people around [President Biden] is [Jill Biden]. It's up to her. These are the same people who got him 4th in Iowa, 5th in [New Hampshire], and a distant 2nd to a socialist in [Nevada].
Two obvious — and hilarious — points.
First, Joe Biden's entire campaign consists of comparing Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler and MAGA Republican "extremists" and "white supremacists" to NAZIs, so please with the smears and lies nonsense.
Second, LaRosa admitted that Joe Biden is incapable of running his own campaign by suggesting "it's up to" his wife to right the ship. What is that?
Democrat strategist David Axelrod was among the first to seriously sound the alarm, in late 2023:
Listen, I understand [Biden] was irritated because I raised concerns that many, many Democrats had. And again, you know, my feeling is either get out or get going.
But the status quo, the way they were approaching the campaign, this sort of ‘What, me, worry?’ attitude about the campaign was not going to get him to where he needs to go.
Incidentally, principal deputy Biden-Harris campaign manager Quentin Fulks said last Sunday that he understands why many Democrats have concerns.
Well, first of all, what I would say to these critics is that I understand what they’re feeling. They’re feeling urgency. They feel afraid. Democracy is at stake. We’re not just saying that and then dragging our feet. We’re building a campaign that’s going to be the campaign that we need to be effective to win in November.
Yeah, no. Democracy is not at stake. Not because of Donald Trump or Republican policies, that is.
The Bottom Line
One would think — a Democrat one, that is — that if Trump was anywhere even close to the near-demonic, megalomaniacal, wanna-be dictator that Joe Biden and the Democrat Party desperately try to frame him, Biden would be winning this race by a country mile.
So, my Democrat friends, is it possible in your Trump-loathing minds that the problem might just be Biden himself — and neither his message nor his lousy campaign?
