As he campaigns for reelection, President Biden hopes there a few things voters will forget about — even if they're going in the right direction.
Biden talks about many things as he tours the country campaigning for reelection: Record job growth during his presidency, laws he signed to promote an infrastructure buildout, more semiconductor manufacturing, and the green energy transition.But a few things that matter a lot to voters don’t make it into Biden’s stump speeches or his social media feeds. These are the three most awkward topics for Biden as he campaigns for reelection.
Most presidents campaigning for reelection, whether liberal or conservative, tack more to the center as the election nears to capture the crucial undecided and independent swing voters that tend to decide elections these days. Biden isn’t doing that on energy because climate activists are a key part of his base. The risk isn’t that those voters would flip and vote for Trump, whose policy on energy is “drill, baby drill.
Smoke from makeshift fires fills the air as migrants wait to enter and seek asylum in El Paso, Texas, from Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, on April 2, 2024. So you might think he’d be eager to let people know that a messy situation is getting better. But immigration is another issue Biden rarely talks about. There are at least two catches for Biden. One is that immigration advocates, like climate activists, are a key part of Biden’s liberal coalition, and Biden doesn’t want to alienate them.
It seems like a complicated explanation for election season, when misinformation often muscles facts aside and a snappy sound bite, whether true or false, can determine a vote. So maybe Biden will avoid talking about TikTok, hope voters forget about the risk of a ban, and keep publishing TikTok videos highlighting what's wrong with Donald Trump.

President's Attempt to Limit Power of Future PresidentA sitting president is trying to restrict the authority of a potential future president by ensuring that his political allies remain in unchecked power. This issue has been ongoing since before the current president took office, with unelected bureaucrats openly opposing him. However, it was only in the final year of his presidency that he took action against the resistance within his own branch of government. This resistance consists of entrenched bureaucrats who have excessive control over American policies and are not accountable to anyone, including the voters and the president. The president's move to address this issue is commendable and should have been done much earlier.
