Axelrod: Biden’s Economic Messaging Based on His ‘Pride’, Not Empathy
Breitbart ^ | 05/09/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 05/09/2024 7:49:42 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” CNN Senior Political Commentator and former Obama Adviser David Axelrod said that President Joe Biden isn’t leading with empathy with his economic messaging and “if he doesn’t win this race, it may not be Donald Trump that beats him, it may be his own pride.”

Axelrod stated, “I don’t understand this. I don’t understand, all these months later, he went — I thought they spent $25 million, mistakenly, last fall, touting Bidenomics and making the same argument that the President’s making here. It is absolutely true, the world was plunged into an economic crisis and America was plunged into an economic crisis by the pandemic, and we’ve come back faster than almost any other country. And he’s right about that, but that’s not the way people are experiencing the economy. They’re experiencing it through the lens of the cost of living. And he is a man who’s built his career on empathy, why not lead with the empathy? And I think he’s making a terrible mistake. It may not be — if he doesn’t win this race, it may not be Donald Trump that beats him, it may be his own pride.”

I think his economic message is based on blatant lies.

It’s not pride, it his belief that lying works. Worked for him for years. First responder above got it right also, he is stupid.

Does Biden deliver any of his own messaging?
Isn’t everything through teleprompters written for him, and still he bumbles them? Or doe she occasionally make his own impromptu remarks that have to be walked back later in the day by subordinates?

><

And it’s also based on Biden and Democrats always trusting that their ignorant, stupid, brain-dead supporters will believe their lies.

“..It is based on Biden being stupid...”

And also based on his belief that 81 million Americans are just as stupid as he is.
After all, they voted for this moron.

Just more of the Biden chutzpah. In his mind, he can do no wrong, all publicity is good publicity.

Pro 16:18 Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.


The original, not the readers digest version.

I’ve asked this before here; is there any “rule” against a debating Presidential candidate getting answers to debate questions through an earpiece radio instead of thinking for themself? Or is it just such shocking bad form that society relies upon the honor system to prevent such cheating at a debate? Is there anyway Trump can call him out on it or jam the signals? I realize Biden’s handler team claims it is hearing aids but is there any upside to calling him out? Would it move the needle with voters at all or just paint a target on whomever called Biden out to be destroyed by the deep state?

Axelrod still looks at it as how can they "fake it". He was one of the astroturf specialists back in the day.

Axelrod is right on one aspect--that pride he is talking about is arrogance, due to a successful combination of cheating, lawfare, and gaslighting. Sort of how teenagers think they're indestructible.

But too much bubble can result in a moment like Ceaucescu must have experienced in 1989.

That lyin’ biatch doesn’t have any pride. His only pride is his bank accounts.

Biden slams Trump over the Foxconn debacle. Seems Joe forgot there was a pandemic.
Let’s talk about the $8B he awards Intel New Albany, OH who now delays their project by 2 years. (After withholding funds due to a diversity & inclusion issue.)

Does Biden wear hearing aids on a regular basis, say when he’s having an important meeting with his team, or heads of state? I don’t recall him seeing him wear them except during debates. I could be wrong. Maybe he does wear them regularly.

Axelgrease: “And he (the cadaver) is a man who’s built his career on empathy.”

Nope. The cadaver built his career on grift.

The economy was already making a comeback before Biden was elected. And the pandemic inflation could have been waning by now, if Biden had not opened the money printing presses with trillions in newly borrowed dollars. Those dollars borrowed against our children’s future has kept the inflation going in spite of the fed’s attempts to squish it.

The man is a shell. Nothing there but the same tripe warmed over in his mind all around a central theme he has said for years: dems good GOP bad. It comes out rote like ingrained into his engrams. Like running an old 33 rpm record.

imo if another than bye dung is nominated and the Rats win they will continue “ cheating, lawfare and gaslighting”.
its tiresome now with all the clearly placed lies and bye dung has the arrogance to say them. he must imagine himself nit only a “ good president” but a “noble old man statesman”-god forbid) of which he is neither.
