Thursday, during an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” long-time MSNBC personality Chris Matthews said he anticipated a “comeback” by President Joe Biden, who is facing heightened scrutiny after a lackluster debate performance against former President Donald Trump. Matthews suggested that, given Biden’s playing from behind, he will assume the role of underdog, which he has been familiar with throughout his political career. He also predicted the so-called elite who have turned on him will “pay for it.
” “He is a politician who’s been good at it,” Matthews said. “He’s been reelected every time since then in Delaware with pretty healthy majorities. And life — he lost his wife and he lost his daughter and he found Jill.
Now, who’s going to listen to Jill or George Clooney? I’m telling you, it’s personal. He’s had the elite and it’s so true about the elite. He is absolutely right about the elite.
Look at President Obama. He served for eight years loyally, and yet Obama backed Hillary Clinton for president and didn’t back him. But I hear he never even invited him upstairs.
He had a good reason to be resentful, but he isn’t. He puts up with it, with the elite.” “But right now, he’s got the poor people,” he added.
He’s got minorities. He’s got Hispanics. He’s going to put out the labor.
He’s going to hold that base of the Democratic Party, which he will need in November. And I’m telling you, people are going to end up root.
