Narratives
- Left narrative, as provided by CNN. Biden's campaign is moving quickly to finalize staffing for a robust 2024 run. Biden's age, as his advisers continue to project, merely shows his experience. Rodriguez, poised to oversee the campaign, has seen her star rise in the White House and has become part of the small circle of the president's most-trusted advisers.
- Right narrative, as provided by The Gateway Pundit. As Biden prepares to re-run for election, there isn't a single poll that suggests he's in a good position. Inflation, border issues, increases in crime, and the decrease in the value of education have made it clear that Biden simply doesn't deserve a second term. The reality of approval ratings lower than Trump — the man Biden himself called the worst president in history — highlights the poor current state of the Biden administration.
