A Biden-Harris official told a journalist that “no one is listening” to President Joe Biden even though he is the current commander-in-chief.
The unnamed official reportedly told this to Axios reporter Alex Thompson in response to Biden’s comments at a campaign event about locking up former President Donald Trump, who is currently running against Vice President Kamala Harris – the woman who replaced Biden at the top of the ticket.
“For better or worse, no one is listening to him anymore and his words have little power and less reach. It’s a blip. Gone in any meaningful way by mid-day tomorrow if it makes it that long,” the official told Thompson.

Biden said during a campaign event on Tuesday in Concord, New Hampshire, that Trump should be in prison because of the alleged threat he poses to the country, The Daily Wire reported.
“He is talking about doing away with the entire Department of Education,” Biden said. “He’s talking, he means it, this is not a joke. This is a guy who also wants to replace every civil servant, every single one. Thinks he has a right under the Supreme Court ruling on immunity to be able if need be, if it was the case, to actually eliminate, physically eliminate, shoot and kill, someone who he believes to be a threat to him.”

“I mean, so, I know this sounds bizarre,” Biden said. “It sounds like if I said this five years ago, you’d lock me up. We gotta lock him up.”
For several seconds Biden stood in silence before seemingly realizing the implications of what he said.
“Politically lock him up,” Biden then added.

Democrat prosecutors in New York have brought politically motivated charges against Trump, resulting in Trump being convicted on 34 charges. In order to bring the charges, leftist Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg had to reinterpret existing law to find a crime to charge Trump with. Trump had paid money to porn star Stormy Daniels to keep her quiet about an alleged affair he denies having, and Bragg counted each payment as its own separate crime, even though the pair had entered a payment contract.
Seeing that the prosecution didn’t hurt Trump’s re-election, his sentencing has been moved until after Election Day. Trump also faces politically motivated persecution in Georgia.
