Former 2020 Biden campaign advisor Symone Sanders-Townsend called on Joe Biden 024 campaign to drop the “Bidenomics” message.
“They are not going to get ‘Bidenomics.’ Let it go,” Sanders-Townsend told Politico.
“How about you just make sure they know what you’re going to do and what you did?”
“You can give folks all the numbers about GDP and all these other things, but the data doesn’t move people. Stories move people,” she added.
Sanders-Townsend claimed that voters haven’t seen Biden “do what he can do best,” such as taking questions from voters in a town hall setting.
However, she failed to note that Biden’s “taking questions” is a recipe for disaster due to his not being able to function properly without a teleprompter.
“He’s been on prompter, he’s been standing on stages looking very presidential with the flags behind him. He gives his speech and he gets out,” she said.
“When was the last time you saw Joe Biden do a rope line?”
“When’s the last time you saw Joe Biden in a town hall taking questions from the American people?”
Earlier this week, former Obama aides voiced concerns about Biden’s election strategies for 2024 due to abysmal polls.
The Daily Fetched reported:
Multiple Obama staff members spoke with Politico about their experiences in the 2012 election, noting how Biden’s is much different.
Meanwhile, some Obama aides said Biden’s team has a weaker ground game than the former president’s.
“The vibe was that the campaign didn’t have its sh-t together,” an anonymous Democrat told Politico.
“There wasn’t infrastructure in the states. There wasn’t a beefed-up campaign headquarters. And compared to where Obama was in 2011, the campaign was fairly anemic.”
A 2012 state director agreed:
“The big issue I have is Biden never had an organization before. He didn’t have much in the Dem primary. Then the general was during Covid and no ground stuff was really done.”
Others urged Biden to put White House advisors on his campaign team.
“There is a treasure trove of experience in that White House. I mean, one of the issues is it’s all in the White House,” Obama’s former chief strategist David Axelrod said.
“Probably some of it should be sitting over at the campaign.”
