Biden's media blitz met with Democratic disdain, wishes he would 'go away'

Joe Biden's re-emergence last week was met with disdain by members of the media and Democratic strategists, as they argue Biden was mostly focused on defending his record.

Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.

Biden spoke to the BBC on Wednesday and with ABC's "The View" on Thursday, where he was also joined by his wife, former First Lady Jill Biden. The former president notably said it wouldn't have mattered if he exited the race sooner, and revealed he wasn't surprised former Vice President Kamala Harris lost. 

"For those of us trying to rebuild the brand, it does no good when you’re constantly reminded about the old brand that won’t go away," Rocha added. He told the outlet that the only good thing about Biden's interview on "The View" was quickly overshadowed by the selection of a new pope.
