President Biden's handlers who load the words into the teleprompter that he attempts to read during campaign appearances seem to have adopted a new strategy: Taking swipes at many of the people who carried Joe's water for years who are now saying he should step aside now that the debate has erased any remaining pretense that "he's fine and sharp as a tack."
Hollywood libs like George Clooney, Rob Reiner and others, along with hosts and guests on traditionally lefty media outlets such as CNN and MSNBC, are saying it's time for Biden to step down. Videos like this are angering Team Biden:

The Biden campaign's new approach is "blame the messenger even if they're the same people who helped try to convince everybody things were fine until that became an impossible task."

No, Joe, that's not why those people are saying it's time for you to go.
All this leads me to something Biden said during his campaign stops in Michigan yesterday before heading back to Delaware for the weekend. This should be his new campaign slogan:
