Some on the right have opened a new line of attack against Joe Biden<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not that he\u2019s mentally confused, a gaffe machine, secretly corrupt, wildly progressive or embracing a weak foreign policy.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s that he\u2019s not a nice guy.<\/p>\n

Imagine.<\/p>\n

TRUMP TO BE INDICTED ON JAN. 6 CHARGES, RIPS DOJ, BUT CASE IS HARD TO PROVE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had enough encounters with the president in the 35 years I have periodically covered him to quarrel with that assessment, but put it aside for now.<\/p>\n

Nobody gets to be president without having to be an SOB.<\/p>\n

At times you have to fire people, break with allies, pressure foreign adversaries<\/a>. Every president projects a certain image, but confrontation, squeezing people, is part of the campaign and, if you win, part of the job.<\/p>\n

In National Review<\/a>, Becket Adams calls Biden, among other things, “a spiteful, petty little man,” “a self-serving career bureaucrat” and “short-tempered, vindictive and mean-spirited.” In short, not a fan.<\/p>\n

The piece blames the media for creating the “Uncle Joe” persona, saying they have “relentlessly promoted the myth that Biden is just a simple guy from Scranton, a big-hearted, plain-talkin\u2019, empathetic grandpa.”<\/p>\n

Adams says “the fact that newsrooms helped the narrative to succeed, despite knowing full well it\u2019s total nonsense, is a scandal.”<\/p>\n

RFK’S ANTISEMITIC CONSPIRACY THEORY ADDS TO LONG LIST OF FALSEHOODS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

This all stems from some Axios reporting<\/a> that got plenty of play:<\/p>\n

“Biden has such a quick-trigger temper that some aides try to avoid meeting alone with him. Some take a colleague, almost as a shield against a solo blast.”<\/p>\n

So Biden has a hot temper behind the scenes. So did Bill Clinton<\/a>, the president who was always feeling your pain. So did Richard Nixon on those tapes. Maybe your father-in-law does as well.<\/p>\n

Besides, the public is smart. They\u2019ve seen how Biden snaps at reporters over minor provocations. He apologized to Fox\u2019s Steve Doocy<\/a> for calling him a “stupid son of a b—h” on a hot mic. On the campaign trail, he called a student a “lying dog-faced pony soldier.” So we already knew he wasn\u2019t a full-time nice guy.<\/p>\n

But we also know that Biden is an empathetic man. The National Review cites some headlines as if news outlets are falling for some act:<\/p>\n

“Biden\u2019s Empathy Shapes Policy, But Some Voters Don\u2019t Feel It” \u2013 Associated Press.<\/p>\n

“How Empathy Defines Joe Biden” \u2013 Forbes.<\/p>\n

“Joe Biden\u2019s Biggest Task is to Be the USA\u2019s Consoler-in-Chief” \u2013 the Telegraph.<\/p>\n

But the suggestion that the president\u2019s empathy is some kind of concocted tale is deeply unfair. This is a man who lost his first wife and infant daughter in a 1972 car accident shortly after his election to the Senate. And then, in 2015, his son Beau died of a brain tumor. He understands tragedy on a visceral level.<\/p>\n

Over the years, I\u2019ve seen Biden exult in using a supersoaker gun against hordes of kids at his annual party at the VP residence. I\u2019ve seen him have a backslapping conversation with John McCain, even though they were political foes. I\u2019ve had long conversations with him in which he\u2019d be self-critical and endlessly verbose.<\/p>\n

The press has often been soft on Biden, but there are plenty of exceptions. He was widely trashed for the chaotic and bloody withdrawal from Afghanistan<\/a>. His age and mental competence and low standing in the polls have been openly questioned. Such liberals as Maureen Dowd ripped him for refusing to acknowledge his seventh grandchild, Hunter\u2019s daughter.<\/p>\n

Look, all politicians are, on some level, phonies. They all have image-makers and spin doctors to make them look better than they are. They are all a bit two-faced.<\/p>\n

But trying to paint Biden as an awful person is a losing argument for Republicans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
