Democrats are reportedly taking Joe Biden to task for appearances in the media this week, which they say only reminds everyone why the party is in trouble and why voters elected Donald Trump.
In his second post-presidency interview, a squinting and sometimes stuttering Biden appeared on ABC’s “The View” Thursday. He was later joined on the show by former first lady Jill Biden, who at times interjected to finish her husband’s answers.

Instead, it could be argued, the appearance only reminded voters of the last days of the Biden administration. Strategist Anthony Coley, who worked for the Biden administration, put it this way to the Hill:
Elections are about the future. Every time Joe Biden emerges, we fight an old war. Every interview he does provides a contrast to Trump that’s just not helpful for the Democratic brand, which needs trusted messengers and fighters who can reach independents and moderates and inspire the base. Joe Biden ain’t that.
