Monday morning’s Morning Joe featured Way Too Early host Jonathan Lemire to lament the “lack of enthusiasm” for President Biden in his reelection bid among Democrat voters, as well as why this should not have been the case, and the subsequent heated discussion caused co-host Mika Brzezinski to erupt like a volcano about how these Democrats should “get over” anxieties about Biden’s age in the upcoming election, railing at them to “be like Gavin Newsom” and “do better.”
Lemire began by admitting that “being nervous is a—a—a permanent condition for Democrats,” but that this had particularly been the case with the beginning of Biden’s reelection campaign over the weekend. He bemoaned the reduction in popularity that Biden had been getting because of his obviously increasing age, an issue that has been “reinforced when he says something people don’t quite understand” (certainly a polite way of putting it) or on the multiple occasions that he had fallen down.
