While President Joe Biden’s decision to end his campaign was presented as a peaceful transfer of power, it was anything but. Now, he seems to want to have a few last words and, boy, is he having them.
First, he donned the MAGA hat at an event with firefighters for a 9/11 memorial. Granted, it wasn’t an endorsement at all, but rather Biden having fun with the crowd. Still, though, if Trump were truly the existential threat Democrats portray him to be, would Biden have donned what is essentially an SS-peaked visor cap?
Then, as Harris attempted to distance herself from the administration she is part of — her campaign is centered on offering “A New Way Forward,” after all — Biden began boasting that “she was a major player in everything we’ve done.”
For good measure, he threw Harris under the bus again when she claimed that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hadn’t been answering her calls regarding disaster relief. Of DeSantis, Biden said, “The governor of Florida has been cooperative. He said he’s gotten all that he needs. I talked to him again yesterday, and I said — no — you’re doing a great job, it’s all being done well, and we thank you for it.”
