Obamaland turns on Biden

Some of the harshest jabs against 2020 Democratic front-runner Joe Biden are coming from seemingly friendly corners.

Key advisers to President Barack Obama, with whom Biden served as vice president from 2009-2017, aren’t mincing words about 2020 campaign trail tactics they find wanting.

David Axelrod, the Chicago-based consultant who engineered Obama’s 2008 win and reelection strategy, is swiping at Biden over his late in political life change of heart to oppose the Hyde Amendment. The annual congressional bill provision bars federal funding for most abortions, which Biden backed repeatedly during his Senate tenure from 1973 to 2009.

Axelrod on CNN Friday called Biden’s contortions over the Hyde Amendment a “flip-flop-flip,” which highlights some of the larger problems with his candidacy. Biden’s age and less-than-vigorous campaign schedule all raise questions about his ability to defeat President Trump in fall 2020, according to Axelrod.
