Weird: Congressional Democrats Staying Away From Biden

This sounds like a repeat of when Obama was in office and Democrats wanted nothing to do with him on the campaign trail

Congressional Dems Apparently Want To ‘Biden-Proof’ Their Campaigns As President Continues To Tank In Polls

Some Congressional Democrats are apparently looking to distance their campaigns from President Joe Biden as they head into the 2024 election, according to Axios.

Five months out from the 2024 election, President Joe Biden is struggling in head-to-head matchups, both nationally and across key swing states, against former President Donald Trump. The poor polling coming from Biden have caused several Democratic lawmakers to “Biden-proof” their campaign in an effort to help boost their already close races, the candidates told Axios.

“[There is] more distancing now as his numbers continue to tank,” one House Democrat told the outlet, saying his campaign was “pretty much washing my hands of his campaign.”

The candidates distancing their campaigns from Biden is an alternative to publicly “rejecting” the president, Democratic incumbents, candidates and operatives told the outlet.

Distancing, not rejecting, right. The RNC and the GOP opponents of these Democrats should be running ads wondering why Dems with the same policies as Biden are trying to run away from Biden. It should be in ads.

Other Democrats, particularly in swing districts, are trying to publicly differentiate themselves from Biden in terms of policy, Axios reported. A coalition of House Democrats wrote to the president in May, urging him to take executive action on the southern border crisis, CBS News reported.

But, do they? Or are they just saying this to get elected, and then they follow Biden 100%? As I’ve written many, many times, the GOP needs to grow some cajones and go on the attack. Stop playing nice. Democrats sure don’t.
