President Joe Biden has upped the tempo of his travel before the 2022 midterm elections, months after expressing his desire to return to a campaign-style schedule to underscore his accomplishments.
But Biden is an inconsistent performer on the campaign trail. While he may forge inroads with persuadable voters one on one, he can just as easily distract from the White House's intended message with an off-script comment or a viral video clip.
For Republican strategist John Feehery, the White House is in a difficult position since they aspire to portray Biden as an in-command leader as it simultaneously creates opportunities for him to make mistakes.
"He's got to travel to show he's up to the job. And he's got to travel because he's got to excite his base," Feehery told the Washington Examiner. "Now, the downside of that is that every time he says something, he says something stupid."
Biden does best in intimate settings rather than in large venues or on TV, according to Feehery. And that means it takes more effort to reach the same number of people effectively, a complication for a time-poor, older president.

Didn’t Obama beg him to just stay home and don’t campaign for him?
Good God, did he hit the pavement now?
He’ll be alone on the stages. Who in their right mind would want him to campaign for them?
Run, Joe, run! My theory is that the Obama retreads zealot simpletons who run the government were so used to being coddled and having their lies papered over by the media, that they’re actually unaware of the impact people actually seeing this demented idiot has. Exhibit A in support of my thesis are his poll numbers.
Can help, or “get” help from them?
What are the achievements of the Biden administration?
I keep hearing generalized references to how much he has achieved, but never hear in particular what people are talking about.
Are they talking about that infrastructure law? If so, why don’t they talk about that law? They make it sound as if our lives are so much better because of the accomplishments of Biden, but don’t seem to specify what those accomplishments are.
Sorry for the double post
As useful as teats on a bull.
Good! I want Biden out there campaigning each and every day....
Yes...funny that he’s the only president in history who won an election without campaigning. Now he wants to get out of dodge? LOL!
He is as useful as a one legged cat burying a turd on a frozen lake.
Biden’s campaign schedule consisted of him hiding in his basement most of the time and calling a lid around noon when he did get out
“he can just as easily distract from the White House’s intended message with an off-script comment or a viral video clip. “
handlers in bunny suits controlling his movement doesn’t help his image ... my advise: nix the bunny suits ...
