At a certain point, none of this makes sense.

“This” being President Joe Biden officially becoming the Democratic nominee for president come the convention in August. The number of Democrats who are honestly thrilled by that eventuality would not fill a Mini Cooper.

A growing number of Democrats see Biden as becoming the political version of “Groundhog Day.” Every night they go to sleep dreaming of having a new nominee, and every morning they wake up to the same old Biden. A president many now see as gaffe-prone, needing to be told where to stand, where to walk and what to say.

As The Hill headlined earlier this week, “Biden’s weakness becomes bigger and bigger worry for Democrats.” Indeed it does.

Because now, as the article highlights, it’s not just about winning the presidency: “Democrats are growing increasingly worried that President Biden’s brutal swing-state numbers could drag down their candidates in the Senate.”

What is being offered up as a “worry” or a “concern” to the public is being treated as a “blind panic” by the Democrats I speak with on a regular basis. As left-of-center Jonathan Chait recently framed it in New York Magazine: “The point here is that Democrats have a Joe Biden problem, not a partywide problem.” Nightmare may have been a more accurate description.

Regarding Biden being a drag on........
