Democrats are livid over the Biden administration's tepid response to recent US Supreme Court decisions which struck devastating blows to the party's core tenets; abortion and gun control.
- Former "Will & Grace" star Debra Messing was among dozens of celebrity Democratic supporters participating in a call with White House aides last Monday to brainstorm a response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
Meanwhile, frustrated Democratic politicians say they've reached out to work with Biden on a variety of issues - between specific bills, brainstorming, or outreach - and often never hear back
- Potential appointees are left sitting for months for word on whether they'll get jobs, or when the Biden admin will be done vetting them
- Biden admin rarely sends invitations to events, and 'thank-you calls barely happen.'
The White House is a mess
- Aides are reportedly exhausted from constantly being on red alert and dealing with crises that seem to just get worse
- Biden's tendency to berate advisers when he's displeased with how a situation is being handled or when events go off poorly has trickled down to the West Wing, leaving mid-level aides feeling blamed for failings despite lacking any real ability to influence decision-making
- Democrats worry that midterm elections will be a bloodbath - the sheer level of ineptitude are feeding a sense that the President couldn't truly handle the complications of a run for reelection in 2024
Indecision
- Biden has been mulling what to do on student loans for more than a year.
- White House staff drafted a memo on the topic weeks ago, and a final decision is now being targeted ahead of when the current repayment pause expires on August 31.
- Biden's defenders argue that he's a scapegoat.
