"On the Shoulders of Giants" – Biden Admits Trump's Win, Targets Immigration Policy Blockades
Biden acknowledges unwitting involvement in Trump's electoral triumph success.
Joe Biden, the Oval Office's previous occupant, has confessed to bearing the weight of responsibility for Donald Trump's election victory. In a candid interview with ABC News, Biden claimed that Trump intentionally obstructed his administration, particularly in immigration policy matters.
Biden acknowledged that they had not been as adept at self-promotion as Trump. He attributed their inability to showcase their political triumphs as a significant mistake. Many of their measures took time to yield meaningful results, and the public didn't immediately grasp the fruits of their labors.
Finger-pointing and hindrances were industry specialties for Trump, Biden declared. He surmised that Trump's obstructionist tactics were aimed at stymieing progress in immigration policies and other key areas.
Gaffes 'n' GaffesIn the past, Biden has stumbled in his public pronouncements, which could have overshadowed his successes. Little-known gaffes, such as confessing to never having seen "colored children" before moving to Delaware, might have caused unwanted distractions.
Cognitive ConundrumsThere's continuous debate about how Joe Biden's cognitive abilities may have affected his public communication. Some former officials have expressed concerns that the perception of cognitive decline hurt the Democratic Party[2].
Post-Presidency IntrospectionIn his initial post-office interview, Biden opted to spend more time criticizing Trump's foreign policy instead of reflecting on his own communication strategies[3][4]. However, he suggested that exiting the 2024 race wouldn't have altered the outcome[3].
Biden's wife, Jill, joined the conversation, denying accusations of prolonging the campaign or sheltering Joe from reality. Her public portrayal during the final phase of his presidency had left her chagrined.
