President Biden is unhappy with his party…
According to The New York Post, President Biden will only be present for night one of the Democratic National Convention; after his speech, he’s gone.
Biden will “pass the baton” and then fly to California.
From The New York Post:
After his nighttime speech, in which he is expected to “pass the baton” to Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, Biden, 81, will trek over 2,000 miles west to Santa Ynez, Calif., where he will stay until Sunday, according to the White House schedule.
The timing of his reported family vacation means that the highest-ranking elected Democrat in the country won’t be present for the remainder of his party’s convention this week.
In doing so, he will avoid any risk of upstaging Harris in her hometown of Chicago, though it’s not clear that he would’ve outshone her. Last week, audience members began leaving a joint Maryland event between the duo after Biden took the podium.
