Steve Schmidt: Biden Has to ‘Hammer’ that Incompetent Trump Has ‘Made the Country the Weakest’ It’s Been

‘The election was about Donald Trump all the way through’

EXCERPT:

SCHMIDT: "I don’t think that any of these numbers, Willie, are determinant of or predictable about what’s going to happen in terms of the raw vote. But what they do show is the climate that we’re operating in and the loss of confidence with the American people and Donald Trump. And what was true about the election in 2016 was this. Whomever the election was about was losing. The election was about Donald Trump all the way through and he was losing all the way through until the end with the Comey letter. It became, in the final days, about Hillary Clinton. And then very narrowly, Donald Trump was elected to the presidency of the United States. It’s incumbent upon Joe Biden to prosecute the case here. And the case is that in the second decade of the 21st century, the most powerful nation in the history of the world, its leading scientific, economic, and military power, elected a con man, a failed businessman, a reality TV show star who had branded himself as a business icon, to the presidency of the United States. He doesn’t read. He can’t consume information. He won’t listen to anybody. We as a country had a real lack of imagination for the capacity for there to be a great tragedy and it has come. He lacks every ability, every competency necessary to get us through this crisis. That’s what Joe Biden has to drive. He has to hammer it day in, day out. This is an incompetent, inept, lying, deceitful, no-good president, who has made the country the weakest it has ever been in the post-World War II era."
