No Thanks, Joe: Biden Viewed as 'Liability' after He Pledges to Campaign for Democrats in Midterm Elections

President Joe Biden’s New Year’s resolution to focus on the 2022 midterm elections will not be universally welcomed by Democratic candidates as the party tries to buck history and hold on to congressional power.

Biden, who prides himself on being a skilled, empathetic campaigner, will be “a liability” for Democrats this midterm cycle, according to political commentator Darrell West.

“His poll numbers have dropped, and his base is dispirited because of his inability to pass Build Back Better and voting reforms,” West told the Washington Examiner of Biden. “Republicans are virtually united against him.”

Republican strategist Alex Conant agreed Biden was poised to hamper Democrats contesting competitive districts, particularly among independents, who seem to be tiring of the president.
