Joe Biden's Re-Election Campaign Is Non-Existent, and That Should Terrify You

Joe Biden has more cash on hand than any other possible 2024 presidential candidate. Ironically, he also has no re-election campaign to speak of.
You’d think an incumbent president flush with cash would already be doing the groundwork to prepare for the general election, especially given he doesn’t have to spend anything to win the primary. So why isn’t Biden hiring campaign staff?
According to his aides, this is all part of the plan, and that should terrify you.
President Biden’s campaign manager, Julie Chavez Rodriguez, has spent her first months on the job planning a sweeping national reelection effort by squatting in a borrowed office overlooking an Amtrak commuter line on Capitol Hill.
With just three other paid staffers, her entire operation cost $1.4 million from April through June — about an eighth of what President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign spent in the same period in 2011, when it operated out of an imposing office suite in Chicago nearly the size of a football field.
Biden aides say that skeletal quality is not a weakness but the plan.
As noted, Barack Obama had spent over $10 million at this point in his re-election effort. As of this writing, Biden has spent just $1.4 million. That’s not something that just happens, especially when money clearly isn’t an issue. Democrat donors and dark money groups are lining up to give Biden all the cash he needs to outspend whoever the eventual GOP nominee is.
