Axios Reporter Says Biden’s Communication Issues Prevent Understanding Of ‘Garbage’ Remark About Trump Supporters

Axios national correspondent Alex Thompson on Wednesday said it’s sadly true that President Joe Biden is currently unable to communicate effectively.

Biden on Tuesday called former President Donald Trump’s supporters “garbage” Tuesday in a Zoom call with the organization Voto Latino, following comedian Tony Hinchcliffe referring to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage” at Trump’s Sunday Madison Square Garden rally. Thompson, on “CNN This Morning,” said Biden’s communication issues make it hard to discern his intended message.

“Well, no one here at this table knows what Joe Biden meant unless someone here has talked to Joe Biden when he made those comments. And the sad reality is that they were indecipherable because this president is no longer able to coherently and consistently articulate a message. And that’s just the sad reality,” Thompson said. “That is why he’s no longer the nominee, because at the debate, we all saw that very clearly. And it’s also why Kamala Harris does not want him on the trail.”
