Eric Boehlert: "Bungled," "flubbed," "chaos" -- the press tries to create summer of Biden controversy

18. The good news here

is that the media (and by extension Republicans) is having a hard time finding some kind of monumental scandal or news story to endlessly attack Biden about. Biden just doesn't seem threatening or "other" to a lot of people. Republicans attack him for all kinds of silly stuff but nobody is really paying much attention to stuff that seems trivial after 4 horrible years of Trump and a global pandemic. They just don't know how to attack him in the same way that they were Obama, which is both good and unfair, because Obama's WH was also run competently and was largely scandal-free but Republicans were able to run up the score in terms of electoral wins using racism (against him specifically) and scare tactics over "socialism" and, of course, the "horrifying" specter of universal health care, which, despite their best efforts in the Courts and the WH (under Trump), and control of Congress, is still standing today.
