Biden’s real feelings about Kamala Harris may finally be slipping out, and he’s not being shy about it. Just days before the election, Biden called Trump supporters “garbage” during a Voto Latino Zoom call. Now, it doesn’t take a political genius to realize that wasn’t the smartest move. This happened, mind you, right when Kamala was trying to deliver her closing argument to voters in Washington, D.C. Instead of talking about her “inclusive” vision for America, the media exploded with coverage of Biden’s gaffe.
So, is Joe Biden—our current Commander-in-Chief—deliberately sabotaging his own VP? After all, it’s not exactly a secret that he wasn’t thrilled about getting pushed off the 2024 ticket. Forced to bow out, he got to watch the Democratic Party parade his “DEI hire” to the front, despite the fact he’s never thought she was suited for the role.
Biden’s “Floating Garbage” Gaffe
In what sounds more like a slip from a retired Florida resident than a sitting president, Biden took to a Zoom call to blast Trump supporters as “floating garbage.” Yes, he actually said that. Instead of just calling out Trump himself, Biden decided it’d be better to target a good chunk of America. So, on the day Kamala was hoping to connect with voters and showcase her so-called “vision,” Biden jumped in and made it all about himself. You have to wonder if Biden didn’t sit back and smirk, knowing full well that Kamala’s campaign was about to take a hit.
Harris’s team was probably pulling their hair out trying to shift attention back to her campaign, but it was too late. The media was hooked on Biden’s comment, comparing it to Hillary Clinton’s infamous “deplorables” line. And we all remember how that went over.
Is Biden Playing a Long Game of Revenge?
When it comes to Kamala, it’s hard not to think Biden might be holding a grudge. He’s been shuffled to the side by his own party, and now he has to sit back while Kamala—someone he likely sees as a token “diversity hire”—takes the spotlight. Could his “garbage” comment be a not-so-subtle act of revenge? According to some insiders, Biden’s team has been reaching out, practically begging to join Kamala at events, only to be met with radio silence. Harris’s team is allegedly so wary of Biden being a “liability” that they’re keeping him far, far away.
But Biden isn’t one to fade quietly into the background. Just look at his track record: recently, he showed up unannounced to give a press conference, stealing airtime from a Harris rally. Then there was his rally in Pittsburgh, which supposedly blindsided the White House team. Now, with this latest blunder, it’s almost as if Biden is playing a calculated game of “whoops!”—each move a little more damaging to Kamala’s campaign. Is he just careless? Or is he silently cheering for her campaign to crash and burn?
Harris Tries to Pivot, But the Damage is Done
Kamala tried to keep the focus on her message of “unity,” doing her best to convince Americans that everyone has a seat at her table. But Biden’s comments have made that a tough sell. When your own party’s leader calls millions of Americans “garbage,” the “unity” message starts to look about as genuine as a Hollywood marriage. It’s no wonder that Kamala is practically begging Biden to stay in the basement until the campaign’s over.
The Democrats had one job here: distance themselves from Trump’s mistakes and focus on wooing voters. But leave it to Joe Biden to take an easy win and turn it into another political disaster. Instead of focusing on Kamala’s big moment, the nation’s talking about Biden’s bizarre habit of putting his foot in his mouth.
Democrats Are Seeing Red (and Not the Good Kind)
Biden’s comments about Trump supporters didn’t just ruffle feathers; they’ve practically detonated a grenade in the Democratic camp. The comparisons to Hillary’s “deplorables” comment have been unavoidable. Remember, Hillary lost many of those voters, and the Democrats have been desperately trying to win them back ever since.
But now, thanks to Biden’s remark, those same voters are getting another message loud and clear: the Democrats still see them as “garbage.” This comes at a time when working-class Americans have been steadily moving to the Republican camp, tired of elites telling them what’s best. Biden’s remark does nothing but remind Americans of the elitist mindset that drives the Democratic Party—a mindset Kamala’s campaign was hoping to distance itself from.
Kamala Harris: A Candidate Without a Net
This is what happens when your campaign depends on keeping the president quiet and out of sight. Biden’s actions are making it clear: he’s not going to play nice. And why should he? After being “cooed out” of the race in favor of Kamala, Biden may feel it’s his turn to exact a little payback.
But here’s the kicker—does Biden even want Kamala to win? To Biden, Harris was always just a convenient symbol, someone to check off a few boxes on the diversity list. Now that she’s front and center, he seems more than happy to watch her struggle, throwing curveballs whenever he can. Whether it’s making off-the-cuff remarks or showing up to events unannounced, Biden’s actions suggest he’s in no rush to help Harris succeed.
Final Thoughts: Biden’s Sabotage or “Senior Moment”?
At this point, the question isn’t just whether Biden’s comments hurt Kamala’s campaign—they absolutely did. The real question is whether he did it on purpose. For someone supposedly out of touch, Biden seems to know exactly how to steal headlines and undermine his successor. The Democrats wanted Kamala as their next big star, but it’s looking like Biden might be the one to dim her spotlight.
Kamala has a steep hill to climb, but as long as Biden keeps making these “mistakes,” she might be rolling backward. And you have to wonder: is that exactly what he wants?
