Biden Needs to Stop Litigating His Presidency

Steve Schale: “There is no playbook for navigating the post-presidency, especially in this modern era. For President Joe Biden, the story of his life has been one of getting back up: after his wife and daughter died, after two failed runs for president, after losing Beau, after navigating Hunter’s challenges, and now after leaving the presidency in a way he had not planned.”

“There is also no real playbook for a hack after the presidential run either. And like so many who love the Boss, his appearance on The View last week just didn’t feel right.”

“Ten years ago, I found myself landing in Bidenworld after opening my mouth to say a few things others were thinking. Now, out of my admiration for the Boss, I will open my mouth one last time: I like, respect, and admire Joe Biden, and I have a hunch that over time, history will treat much of his presidency well. At the same time, I wish he would stop litigating it. It isn’t helping.”
