Biden raised his voice over House Dem commander-in-chief concerns: 'I don't want to hear that crap' [View all]

President Joe Biden gave a forceful and defensive response to centrist Democrats who raised concerns about his reelection campaign in a Saturday meeting, and in one tense exchange dismissed one lawmaker’s concerns as “crap.”

Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.), a respected centrist in the Democratic caucus, told Biden that people want a strong leader so they can feel safe on national security.

“I don’t want to hear that crap,” Biden said in response to Crow’s suggestion that voters did not have confidence in his national security credentials, raising his voice in a forceful defense of his foreign policy record, including the rebuilding of NATO, according to three people familiar with the remarks granted anonymity to discuss the private meeting.

But Crow spoke up again to say Biden’s accomplishments weren’t breaking through to voters.

Speak up then Crow. Live up to your name and quit being so namby pamby.
