It was just a matter of time before Joe Biden got even with Kamala Harris.
He is still seething about the way he was pushed out of the race.
And in one very public act, he settled his scores with her.
Joe Biden has long been known by his peers in the political world as somewhat of a hothead.
He is given to bouts of anger, which even sometimes come out in public, and this tendency towards angry outbursts has gotten worse as he has gotten older.
That’s why when he was pushed out of the race in favor of Kamala Harris, it was widely expected that he would not be inclined to act friendly towards Harris and her campaign.
However, when he spoke at the convention in favor of Harris, many thought he had put his bitterness aside.
Anyone who thought that turned out to be quite wrong, as Biden was seen wearing a Trump hat in a recent public appearance.
Biden surely knew that this act would be captured on camera, and that Harris would see it, and he likely was hoping that it would cause her some embarrassment.
According to Breitbart, “Outgoing President Joe Biden donned a red Trump campaign hat while grinning in Pennsylvania on Wednesday, one day after the presidential debate when former President Donald Trump said Biden ‘hates’ Vice President Kamala Harris.”
“Eric Trump said Biden wore the hat after first responders in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, demanded he wear the hat.”
Of course, looking for revenge is not a very good quality on Biden’s part, as the best thing to do when you have been wronged is to turn the other cheek.
But that does not appear to be Biden’s M.O., and it led to the very bizarre sight of him wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hat in public in front of the cameras.
The article continues, “The image of Biden wearing a Trump hat immediately became an internet sensation, spreading like wildfire on X. ‘President Trump wasn’t lying when he said he really does hate Kamala,’ said CJ Pearson, co-chair of the GOP’s Youth Advisory Council.”
The Trump War Room account on X, formerly Twitter, posted this after the incident: “BREAKING: Kamala did so bad in last night’s debate, Joe Biden just put on a Trump hat.”
Hopefully Biden can become better at putting his grudges aside instead of being vengeful.
Until then, Kamala Harris is going to have to deal with the fact that the sitting Democrat president just wore a campaign hat for her opponent, who is absolutely hated on the left.
She is going to have to answer for the fact that the highest-ranking Democrat in the entire country does not appear to be fully or enthusiastically supporting her.
This is a terrible look for her campaign, especially when her poll numbers against Trump are teetering on the edge of disaster.
Harris is in trouble in this race, and Joe Biden may have just made her problems significantly worse.
