White House plots public reset as Biden's agenda flails
NBC News / Comcast ^ | January 18, 2022 | By Carol E. Lee, Kristen Welker and Mike Memoli

With President Joe Biden rounding out his first year in office amid a sinking approval rating and multiple setbacks to his agenda, the White House is planning a new communications strategy, senior administration officials say.

Biden’s reset plan, senior administration officials said, is to make his conversations with members of Congress less of a public priority and to emphasize spending more time communicating directly with Americans. The officials said that the White House will continue negotiations with Congress over Biden’s legislative priorities but that it would stop releasing details of the talks to the public.

What some of Biden’s aides have expressed concern about most is the impression that he is seemingly bogged down at the White House, giving too many “one-dimensional” speeches from Washington instead of showcasing what they see as his greatest political strength: empathy and an ability to connect with ordinary Americans.

But finding the time and the best venues outside Washington has been a challenge, both because of how much time Biden has invested in congressional negotiations and because the pandemic has made such travel outside the capital more complicated and time-consuming.

No one is going to allow sleepy Joe to appear in anything but a fully scripted, controlled environment with a sympathetic media drone and careful editing.

Even then, he’s obviously in decline, and the policies that his handlers have been trying to implement are both unpopular, and far from the centrist pablum he ran on.

Now is the time to seize the moment and get as many good candidates in Republican primaries as possible.

but that it would stop releasing details of the talks to the public

That worked well for Hitler in his takeover.

Brandon is just one of those people who the more you see, the more you tend to be creeped out. So by all means, do it. We will have hours of entertainment as the left attempts to animate a cadaver.

“What WE need is MORE Joe Biden in front of a microphone and a camera!”

And without an earpiece or teleprompter too.

the American people can then really see what a doddering old fool they elected as President!

Nobody trusts a kiddie-sniffer who cheated his way in with “the largest organized system of voter fraud in history” (or how ever he phrased it...)

Get Dr Jill to flash her TaTa’s. Might get a few votes from the Over 90 crowd.

Joe has already started that strategy by grabbing them in a public place. Video linked below ...

LOL Because ordinary Americans love bitter, hateful, authoritarian corruptocrats.
