New Yorker spends large part of Kamala Harris endorsement rebuking Biden: He 'stood in the way'

The New Yorker magazine issued a scathing rebuke of President Biden in its official endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris published Sunday.
The magazine heaped praise on Harris for displaying "the basic values and political skills" to defeat former President Trump in a lengthy endorsement, but not before scolding President Biden for standing in her way.
"It was hardly a secret that Biden has aged, growing markedly less robust, particularly in the past eighteen months or so. If he got through an interview or a (rare) press conference without incident, staff and supporters exhaled and treated it as a victory," the editors wrote.
"But, rather than open the gate to a younger generation of Democratic candidates, Biden, his advisers, and the Party leadership stood in the way. They made it plain that a challenger would inevitably be defeated. Meanwhile, through spin and deft scheduling, the White House staff protected the President and hoped for the best. Tens of millions of voters, fearing another Trump Presidency, had little choice but to close their eyes and think of America," the endorsement reads.
