Daily Wire: Biden’s ‘Empathy.’ It’s Ugly When You See It.
Republicans face criticism for lacking empathy during major natural disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina or the Texas freeze. However, Democrats, like Joe Biden, seem to be immune from such criticism. Biden's recent vacation to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, followed by Lake Tahoe and Maui, demonstrates his self-centered nature. Despite claiming to care about the little guy, Biden's actions reveal his true priorities - himself and his immediate circle. His attempts to appear empathetic are transparent and unconvincing. Biden's disregard for the suffering of others, exemplified by his inappropriate storytelling during a visit to Lahaina, unveils his true character: an arrogant, selfish individual who only cares about himself.
