There might be more to this clip than Mediaite has provided, but still, it’s always interesting to see whom Democrats will blame for President Joe Biden’s floundering other than Biden. Democratic strategist Paul Begala says the problem Democrats have right now isn’t bad leaders, it’s bad followers. We’re not sure if he’s talking about Sens. Kyrsten Sinema and Joe Manchin or perhaps House Democrats or maybe even the voters, but in any case, we hope it’s a message they continue to run with.

Bad followers follow bad leaders. Got it.

I guess everyone is deplorable now.

Yeah, more of that. That sounds like a winning strategy. It's the followers. Sure.

Talk about living in a freaking bubble. It's the leaders, for sure. And the advisors of course and especially the activists and "strategists".

If every single Republican, running for any office, doesn't use this in their campaign arsenal, they've lost a great opportunity.

Y'all didn't vote hard enough. You have to vote harder…..or something.

Another “deplorables” moment? They just don’t learn, do they. 🙄

Protecting Biden from criticism is a full-time job for these people.
