Sen. Coons on Joe Biden’s ‘Handsome Guy’ Reaction to Trump Mugshot: ‘I Think It Was Appropriate’

‘But President Biden’s focused on the things your average American worries about’

RUSH EXCERPT:

COONS: “I think President Biden is doing the right thing by showing the American people he’s continuing to lead. We’re seeing record numbers of jobs created in manufacturing, record recovery compared to all of the other developed countries that also came through the economic hardships of the pandemic. And he’s reducing the cost to your average American family by implementing the prescription drug price reductions of the Inflation Reduction Act, by investing in American manufacturing that’s the things that President Biden should be focused on. I think it’s appropriate for others of us who are in politics to comment on the former president, his striking mugshot and, frankly, the very unsettling ways in which he’s taking his mugshot and turning it into a fund-raising vehicle for his reelection campaign. But President Biden’s focused on the things your average American worries about, growing jobs, keeping us safer and stronger here at home and strengthening our alliances around the world. That’s what he should be doing and leaving the rest to commentators, like you and me.”
