On Fox News, former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy argued that President Biden’s State of the Union address was aimed more at solidifying himself as the Democratic nominee rather than governing the nation.
According to McCarthy, Biden was worried Democrats would remove him from the ticket, so he gave a “vicious political screed” trying to show Democrats he could be tough and strong.
“Let’s bring in former Speaker of the House, Kevin McCarthy,” Fox News’ Jesse Watters said. “That was a pretty just vicious political screed.”
McCarthy said Biden was playing to concerns over what might happen at the Democratic convention in Chicago and looked mean and angry, which wouldn’t bring him more votes, but rather was about worrying the Democrats would take him off the ticket.
“It was, and you want to know why?” McCarthy said. “I mean, remember, they wrote this speech, they practiced this speech, and what did they want to achieve by it? He wasn’t speaking to the nation, what he was really doing is speaking to his party. This was more about a convention.”
“I think he was worried about Democrats, removing him for the nominee. That’s why he came out. He tried to show every Democrat — you know, you’ve got to be tougher. You’ve got to be stronger, and all he did was look mean and angry,” he said.
“That doesn’t bring him more votes, but he is really playing, worried that the Democrats would take him off the ticket, worried about what’s going to happen in Chicago and trying to solidify that, instead of governing the nation,” he added.
