Biden won White House with ‘put your dumb uncle in the basement’ strategy, new book says
Fox News
President Biden won the White House because the coronavirus let him stay hidden in his basement, protecting his campaign from its biggest liability — the candidate himself, a new book says.
Even former President Obama initially refused to support his 78-year-old ex-vice president and friend, worried he could become a "tragicomic caricature of an aging politician having his last hurrah’’ if not protected from himself, the book says. The work’s authors — Jonathan Allen of NBC News and Amie Parnes of The Hill — write that time and again, "the stars aligned’’ for Biden, a previous two-time loser presidential hopeful who succeeded on his third try despite himself. And no one was more caught off guard than the Trump camp.More Related News
