Kasie Hunt: Biden Shows Flashes of Anger and Defensiveness in NBC Interview

‘There is a sense of despair setting in right now’

EXCERPT:

HUNT: "There — you can see there some of the flashes of anger and defensiveness that are frequently reported to be much more amplified than that in private, and then I think kind of underscore the conundrum that many Democrats are in because you have a president who is so dug in. And when you layer the events of the last 48 hours that it‘s been since this unfolded, the Democrats that I‘m talking to, both who worked for Democrats, who have committed their lives to trying to get Democrats elected, but also sort of rank-and-file people in my own life from my sort of expanded circles, there is a sense of despair setting in right now among people that Democrats really need to work extremely hard for the president if they want to win and to get out and vote, and they looked at what happened on Saturday and they‘re saying, between the debate stage and the rally around Trump that has, you know, justifiably followed that attempt, that there is very little hope for them right now."
