Asset or liability? Biden's momentum hasn't led to new invitations on midterm campaign trail.
USA Today
WASHINGTON — During a trip to Wilkes-Barre, Pa. last week, President Joe Biden lavished praise on Pennsylvania's Democratic Senate nominee John Fetterman, calling him "a hell of a guy" and "a powerful voice for working people."
"He's going to make a great United States senator," Biden said.
But Fetterman, the state's lieutenant governor, was not in attendance. The campaign said a pre-scheduled fundraiser forced Fetterman to miss the White House event on public safety.
Biden is an absolutely liability. Campaigning democrats are running for cover. They don't want his endorsement, and they definitely don't want to be seen with him at any campaigns. The pre-scheduled fund raiser is the political equivalent of "the dog ate my homework."
Contrast this with Trump who draws crowds in the tens of thousands. More people want to go than can actually attend. His endorsement has been the Midas touch.
