Comeback Seniors

The Bidens want back in:

NBC News, “The Bidens want back in”: Former President Joe Biden has told some Democratic leaders he’ll raise funds, campaign and do anything else necessary for Democrats to recover lost ground as the Trump administration rolls back programs the party helped design, according to people close to him. Biden privately met last month with the new Democratic National Committee chairman, Ken Martin, and offered to help as the party struggles to regain its viability amid polling that shows its popularity has been sinking, the people said. Normally, having an ex-president at a party’s beck and call is a revenue-boosting asset. There are only 40 or so members of the “Presidential Club” (and most of ‘em are, like, dead), so people pay a premium to meet the ones that are still alive. (Or, in Biden’s case, mostly alive.) They’re still a huge, monetizable draw. But for some mysterious reason, Biden’s offer to save the day has fallen on deaf ears: So far, Biden's overture seems to have fallen flat. Democrats find themselves adrift, casting about for a compelling messenger. Whoever that is, it's not Biden, many party activists and donors contend. He's tethered to the 2024 defeat and, at 82, is a symbol more of the party's past than its future, they argue. “Who’s going to want Joe Biden back in the game?” said a major Biden supporter, speaking on condition of anonymity to talk candidly about him. A spokesperson for the DNC didn’t provide a comment or make Martin available for an interview.

Don't call it a comeback, he's been decompsing for years...
