Max Rose: Biden Staffers Have Been ‘Pushing the President Too Hard,’ Applying ‘Obama Playbook’ to 81-Year-Old Man
EXCERPT:
ROSE: “No, no, I’m not. I’m not surprised about that. I mean, if anything, we’ve seen a massive staff failure on the part of the Biden team. Part and parcel of that has been pushing the president too hard. You know, in many ways, they’ve taken their Obama playbook and just applied it to a man who’s 81 years old. But you know, when you take a step back here, everybody wants one thing from President Biden as it pertains to the Democratic camp, because they all, everyone — myself included — desperately wants him to be the nominee because we’re so proud of his record and his service and believe in his leadership. We just need him to show that he is not in some type of irreversible cognitive decline. And any effort that he can make in terms of engaging with the press corps, with voters, with stakeholders, whatever it might be, that’s what people are yearning for. Nobody cares what time he goes to bed. It has zero impact on any of this.”
