'Gaslighting on a Trumpian level': Conservative slaps down Biden's attack on 'elites'

Conservative Jonah Goldberg did not think much of President Joe Biden's attack on "elites" within the Democratic Party who are trying to get him to drop out of the 2024 presidential race.

During a phone call to MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Monday, Biden hit back at his critics within the Democratic Party, whom he accused of being "elites" who wanted to undermine the will of Democratic voters.

Goldberg pointed out that Biden has been serving in government since he was elected to the Senate all the way back in 1972, which makes it a major stretch to consider him some kind of maverick outsider despised by party fixers.

"The idea that Joe Biden, who is a total creature of Washington D.C. political elites, he's been in Washington for over 50 years as a politician, is saying that somehow it's him versus the elites," he said. "It's gaslighting on a Trumpian level."

Goldberg also pointed out that Democrats are taking a major risk if they buy the White House's spin that the president simply had a "bad night" during his first 2024 debate with President Donald Trump.

"Every good interview doesn't mean a thing if you know there's one really bad one coming," he said. "And the idea that you're going to bet that there's not a really bad one coming for a guy who says, when he has a good interview, that he needs to get more sleep and do fewer things after 8 o'clock, is a wildly irresponsible bet."
