Conservative concern troll John Podhoretz of the New York Daily News has weighed in on the Donna Brazile flap — he’s shocked, shocked that the party’s presumptive nominee took control of the party machinery a year before the election — but he’s not worried that Bernie got the shaft. He’s chosen a victim more sympathetic to the GOP working class.
Joe Biden.
“Consider that a formal agreement signed by the DNC and the Clinton campaign was executed in August 2015, two months before Biden made his decision,” he hyperventilates. “…What role might this agreement have played in Biden’s decision-making? Did he know? Did Hillary tell him? Did President Barack Obama tell him? Did Biden realize he would be fighting not only Clinton but the entire apparatus of his own party and decide to bag it?”
Yeah, the whole column is a Kentucky burgoo of squirrelly conservative “thought,” but Joe’s fans will love it.
