What Biden Campaign Is Telling Its Staff Shows How Much It's Burying Its Head in the Sand

One of the problems with Joe Biden has always been is that he doesn't live in reality.

He makes up things that aren't true, in order to pander to audiences or to pump himself up.

He verbally attacks people who dare to challenge him, He often responds with lies.

But that not living in reality has carried over to his team and his family, I think, when it comes to the present situation that he's in, as top Democrats engage in an effort to shove him out.

Meanwhile, the leaks about what's going on behind the scenes continue. The campaign had an "all staff call" on Friday to try to pump up the troops, as Matt Vespa at our sister site Townhall reported. The gist of the call? Don't listen to the news.

"Don't watch cable news all the time," campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon allegedly told the staff at the campaign and the Democratic National Committee. (emphasis added)

"That is not the real world. The real world is the voters that are standing with us, the delegates that are with us, and we're going to weather this because of this organization."
What they're saying: O'Malley Dillon reiterated to staff that Biden is "in this race" and "in it to win it."
"I talked to him this morning – he sounds like sh*t because he's not feeling that well," she said, noting his recent COVID diagnosis.
"But he is doing the work, and he is focused on what you guys are doing."
O'Malley Dillon added that "the people that the president is hearing from are saying: 'stay in this race and keep going and keep fighting, and we need you.'
"Those voices will never be as loud as the people on TV, but remember that the people in our country are not watching cable news. They just aren't."

Wow. And you wonder why Biden, whenever he's confronted by polls, denies them? This is the attitude of the campaign in general, too. They're just putting their heads in the sand, pretending there isn't a big move to get him out, that they can just count on the support of voters. Or at least, that's what they're trying to sell the campaign staff at this point. People are leaking right and left to keep up the pressure on the Biden team. The people who claim to care about democracy are ripped all asunder because their own side wants to go around what the voters in the primary did.

If you think about it, the campaign also doesn't know what to do now that the media seems to have pulled away the protection as well, and seems to be fanning the flames. That's incredibly ironic since the MSM can usually be counted on to run cover for Democrats

The bottom line is that they've lost support from Democratic voters as well; pretending that people aren't paying attention to the news is just folly. Nearly two-thirds of Democrats want Biden out, a new AP-NORC poll found this week. So, that message to the campaign staff is just not true either, like much of what Biden says.
