Scott Jennings, CNN political analyst I went there.
President Joe Biden offered no explanation after speaking from the Oval Office on Wednesday. why He chose to end his reelection campaign — on a CNN panel featuring Biden allies I was obsessed with the president He said Biden had chosen to step down from power of his own accord and called him “selfless” and “heroic.”
“You’re asking the public to ignore a lot of disingenuousness about Joe Biden’s ability, his potential, his ability to serve another four years as president.”
But Jennings quickly ruined their plans.
Republican commentators instead presented all the evidence showing that Biden’s decision to step down was not the selfless and courageous act Democrats claim it was.
“What seems odd to me is that just a few weeks ago, even a few days ago, most Democrats were still looking at the TV cameras and saying this guy can get another four years in office, so he’s clearly out of gas,” Jennings said. Began“No matter what the government says, they were not ‘cheap fakes.'”
“In fact, I still think it’s a legitimate scandal as to why they decided to run again in the first place,” he added.
Jennings continued that the Biden family and their staff have “a lot of explaining to do” about the decision to appear to hide Biden’s declining cognitive abilities.
But that’s not the only problem for Democrats: In fact, Jennings said, the praise for Biden hides the fact that Democratic leaders forced him to withdraw from his reelection campaign and ignored the will of the voters.
“I’m still amazed at how easy it was to beat the president,” Jennings said. “He won 81 million votes in 2020 and another 14 million since then, but at the end of the day, he was no match for the handful of leaders who run the Democratic Party.”
“After all, over the last few days, weeks and months, a lot of people have looked into television cameras and told us a lot of things about this president that are not true,” he noted.
The committee did not immediately dispute Jennings’ comments.
But later in the debate, David Axelrod, a top aide to former President Barack Obama, disagreed with Jennings’s position. Claimed Democratic leaders did not “take down” Biden before accusing Jennings of not doing Biden enough “favors.”
Jennings, however, had no patience for Axelrod’s historical revisionism.
“What we’re asking Republicans to do is ignore a lot of the fraud that’s come from the White House, a lot of the fraud that’s come from the vice president, the people that worked for him, his family, other Democrats, Democrats in Congress,” Jennings told Axelrod. “We’re asking the country to ignore a lot of the fraud that’s come from Joe Biden’s ability, his potential, his ability to serve another four years as president.”
Jennings ultimately told Axelrod it was “bizarre” that Democrats were pretending Biden hadn’t been pushed out by party leaders, given that just a month ago Biden and Democratic leaders were insisting Biden was capable of serving another four years as president.
Vice President Kamala Harris became the party’s presumptive nominee this week after enough delegates pledged to support her campaign, even though Democratic voters chose Biden in the primary.
Unfortunately, Harris has an uphill battle ahead if she wants to seriously challenge President Donald Trump.
