LIZ PEEK: Democrats have a Joe Biden problem. And there's no way to fix it

Reporter who broke story on Biden's decline says she received 'significant pushback'
You almost have to feel sorry for Joe Biden. One minute he’s president of the United States, the most powerful person on earth, and the next minute his own party is begging him to disappear. Michael LaRosa, Jill Biden’s former communications director, is quoted in a Hill piece saying, "the intense level of anger or indifference to [the Bidens]… isn’t going away anytime soon."
Biden is so out of favor he can’t even circulate an Easter message without attracting ridicule. Biden’s Easter greeting featured a family snapshot that trended on X for hours, with most viewers deciding the president had been photoshopped in, so unartfully was he positioned and so peculiarly dressed. The picture raises several questions including: where was the president if not among family members? Where was Hunter, conspicuous by his absence?
We don’t know the answers to these questions, because Biden has been keeping a low profile of late. His rare public appearances have not gone well. Several days ago, he spoke before a conference on Social Security in Chicago, his first address since leaving office in January. He used the opportunity to scare seniors into believing that the Trump administration’s efforts to reduce waste and fraud in Social Security (estimated by the Social Security Inspector General to total $72 billion from 2015 through 2022) might mean their checks will be delayed or interrupted. He claimed the Trump White House wants to "wreck" the program so they can "rob it," using the money to reward billionaires with tax cuts.
