Who plays the “game” better?

Morning Joe’s Joe Scarborough, Mika Brzezinski and Mike Barnicle discuss “the game of politics” and how Republicans are playing it better heading into the 2022 midterm elections and one year into President Joe Biden’s tenure. “Most Republicans who run for office, they’re better on both sides of the ball—offense and defense. They crush their opponents, and they brag about their accomplishments. The Democrats are unable to do that….They sit there paralyzed by the differences between the progressives and the moderates in both the House and the Senate. But there are deliverables that the President ought to be talking about…things that have helped people, helped families survive through the virus, and it’s still there: The promise is still there, but they seem unable to articulate it, and worse—unable to act on it,” says Barnicle about Democrats touting the achievements of Biden’s first year in office.
