Republicans won't stop beating up on Biden because it's all they have

President Donald Trump hasn’t even been back in office for 200 days, and already, his second term is a full-blown disaster.

He’s sort of breaking up with his tech billionaire co-President Elon Musk. His so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill,” pitched as the cornerstone of his legislative revival, is tearing the GOP apart. His power grabs are being dragged through the courts. And his tariff plan—if it survives—could drive up prices and tip the economy toward a recession.

With all that chaos on their plate, Republicans should be laser-focused on solving problems. Instead, they’re still obsessed with former President Joe Biden.

Two recent stories gave them just enough cover. First, a Beltway tell-all claimed Biden’s team downplayed his health issues when he launched his reelection bid. Then came news of his metastatic prostate cancer diagnosis—and Republicans immediately, and without evidence, cried “cover-up.”

Tulsi is warning us he can't read while Joni encourages everybody to think more positively about dying; and the usual suspects are attacking a retiree with metastatic cancer

GQP have a phobia about admitting they are wrong on anything. Remember GQP had over 60 years, I believe the fairness doctrine was repealed in 1987 under Reagan which opened the doors of lies, conspiracies, etc.
