He's back: Biden returns to the campaign conversation

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Somehow — before his party finished reckoning with his legacy — Joe Biden returned.

The former president waded into two Democratic primaries last week to endorse candidates who’d worked for his administration: Keisha Lance Bottoms in the Georgia gubernatorial race, and Dan Koh, who’s seeking an open House seat in Massachusetts.

And in California’s gubernatorial battle, Biden’s former Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra has picked up endorsements and momentum ever since disgraced ex-Rep. Eric Swalwell bowed out. He hasn’t gotten formal backing, but Becerra is running openly on his record in Biden’s administration.

The beginnings of Biden nostalgia in Democratic primaries show how cleanly the party is hoping to pivot this year’s midterms to President Donald Trump’s economic record, effectively recasting its 2024 defeat as an “affordability” battle that now can be won. Democrats have ignored Trump’s frequent insults of his predecessor, pegging it as a distraction from the president’s own unpopularity with swing voters.

1. Brilliantly baiting Trump.

The orange clown can’t resist but step in and make the midterms about himself.

2. I'm glad he is getting involved, and appreciate the endorsement

of Keisha Lance Bottoms. When I voted for Stacy Abrams for governor I was surprised to find myself crying as I left the booth. It was an incredible moment to vote for a black woman to be governor of GEORGIA. Don't know if I will be as emotional this time, but that would be quite an achievement.

3. I got quite emotional casting my vote for Kamala. I was CERTAIN she would win!

It was a THRILL!!!!
