Elrod: What Matters to Biden, of Course, Is Beating Donald Trump

RUSH EXCERPT:
ELROD: "Well, a couple of thing, rev. First of all, the clintons have been supportive to president both in the 2020 campaign and also, obviously, this campaign cycle too. I just went to a fundraiser not too long ago at former Virginia governor tara’s house. They’ve been longtime supporters. No surprise they’re obviously still very much with President Biden. But look, I want to make a point here. I mean, President Biden has made it very clear — and I think something that kind of got a little lost at the very end of the press conference he held a couple weeks ago during the very end of NATO — he made it clear that, look, if there are members of Congress who need to run against him, they’re going to perform better if they run against the president, if they want to run with him, he doesn’t care. As long as they win, as long as they do what they need to do, that is what matters. And what matters to President Biden, of course, is beating Donald Trump. They share those same worries that we have to beat Trump. That is why President Biden is excited to get back on the campaign trail, taking his message directly to voters and proving time and time again that he is the best candidate to take on Donald Trump. He beat him in 2020, he’s going to beat him again. And by the way, rev, you know this very well because you and I have talked about this a lot on your show and on Morning Joe, we’ve talked a lot about what President Biden has done for the American people. He’s created over 15 million jobs, put the first black woman on the Supreme Court, relieved student loan debt for millions of Americans. The list goes on and on. He has done a lot for the American people, and those are proof points to make it clear he will get a lot done in a second term for the American people. And he wants to get back out there on the campaign trail and make that case directly to voters."
