Biden’s Campaign Enlists A Controversial Former White House Aide

Do you recall how Joe Biden, on his very first day as president, announced that he would have zero tolerance for anyone in his administration who treated or disrespected others? If you ever work with me, and I hear that you have disrespected another colleague, or talked down to someone else, I promise you I will fire you immediately… right away!” “No ifs, and, or buts.”

This was his way to show that his administration would not tolerate the disrespectful behaviors that the left thought was endemic to Mean Tweets’ administration. Many have likely forgotten about it, as the policy is generally ignored. He violated the zero-tolerance rule less than a week into his presidency when he did not fire TJ Ducklo as Deputy Press Secretary, for making misogynistic remarks and threatening to “destroy’ a female reporter. Ducklo, who was suspended, resigned the following day due to the negative reaction. A second official was also found to have disrespected colleagues but he too wasn’t terminated. Like Ducklo he resigned because of the backlash and not due to any Biden administration standards.

Biden’s policy of zero tolerance was a gimmick, which played into the “decency’ rhetoric during the campaign. It also helped to distance him from Trump, whose no-holds-barred approach to telling people the truth struck a chord with the media.

Biden is not a model of respect or decency. He has insulted media members who asked him questions that he did not like. For example, he said, “What a dumb question” to Fox News Jacqui Heinrich when she asked about Putin and Ukraine. Or he called Peter Doocy a “stupid child of a b*tch” after he asked about inflation. Technically, these and other incidents were violations of his policy of zero tolerance. We’re supposed to believe that Biden was a nice man, while Trump was beneath the dignity and honor of the presidency.

Biden’s decency has been questioned yet again. TJ Ducklo is the same man that threatened to “destroy”, a female reporter, and made misogynistic remarks to her. He has now been hired as a senior communication adviser by Biden’s re-election 2024 campaign.

Joe Biden said restoring integrity and competence to the government was essential when he announced his zero-tolerance for disrespect.

Everyone has the right to be treated with dignity and decency. He said that this has been lacking in a major way for the past four years. “We will be judged on whether we have restored the integrity and competence of this Government.”

His campaign was no different. Not only did he not value decency or dignity, but neither did his administration.
