Former President Joe Biden has told some Democratic leaders he'll raise funds, campaign and do anything else necessary for Democrats to recover lost ground as the Trump administration rolls back programs the party helped design, according to people close to him. Biden privately met last month with the new Democratic National Committee chairman, Ken Martin, and offered to help as the party struggles to regain its viability amid polling that shows its popularity has been sinking, the people said. So far, Biden's overture seems to have fallen flat. Democrats find themselves adrift, casting about for a compelling messenger. Whoever that is, it's not Biden, many party activists and donors contend. He's tethered to the 2024 defeat and, at 82, is a symbol more of the party's past than its future, they argue. "Who's going to want Joe Biden back in the game?" said a major Biden supporter, speaking on condition of anonymity to talk candidly about him.
Sadly, Joe Biden will go down in the history as the doormat between #45 and #47, like Benjamin Harrison sandwiched in-between Grover Cleveland's two terms. Cold Warrior Joe gets an 'A' for dealing with Vladimir Putin and re-settling 270,000 Ukrainian refugees in the US, but an 'F' for dealing with Benjamin Netanyahu and Donald Trumpf. Multiple OIGs were in the process of investigating Felon Musk's companies, so we can grade Joe 'Incomplete' for that assignment. Feeling guilty or remorseful over the 2024 debacle, Joe Biden now wants to campaign and raise funds to help "recover lost ground." But there may be little left to recover after four years of Trumpf's vultures picking America's bones clean. Moreover, Joe is associated with Netanyahu and the brutal 2024 Nakba which he allowed to continue by not stopping billions of dollars of military aid to Israel. In 1968, LBJ and Hubert Humphrey suffered similarly for supporting the brutal Saigon regime and the never-ending Vietnam War. lh3.googleusercontent.com
