Last week, it was announced that Joe Biden has decided to build his presidential library in Delaware, which seems appropriate considering that he spent most of his one-term presidency there.
Still, it’s surprising that they are moving forward with this, as we are still learning more about the scandalous cover-up of Biden’s physical and mental health.
ABC News reported last week:
Biden launches fundraising to build presidential library in DelawareFormer President Joe Biden has decided to build his presidential library in Delaware and has tapped a group of former aides, friends and political allies to begin the heavy lift of fundraising and finding a site for the museum and archive.The Joe and Jill Biden Foundation this past week approved a 13-person governance board that is charged with steering the project. The board includes former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, longtime adviser Steve Ricchetti, prolific Democratic fundraiser Rufus Gifford and others with deep ties to the one-term president and his wife.Biden’s library team has the daunting task of raising money for the 46th president’s legacy project at a moment when his party has become fragmented about the way ahead and many big Democratic donors have stopped writing checks.It also remains to be seen whether corporations and institutional donors that have historically donated to presidential library projects — regardless of the party of the former president — will be more hesitant to contribute, with President Donald Trumpmaligning Biden on a daily basis and savaging groups he deems left-leaning.
President Trump is the least of Biden’s problems here. Many Democrat donors believe they were burned in the 2024 election, and they’re not exactly lining up to offer new financial support.
FOX News reports:
Democratic donors reluctant to give to Biden’s presidential library: reportFormer President Joe Biden’s new effort to raise money for a presidential library is struggling to attract Democrat donors, according to a report.More than half a dozen people who were once major Biden donors or fundraisers spoke to NBC News. Most said they have no animosity toward the former president, but they either would not give to the library or would only give a limited amount.The donors pointed to several factors, including not wanting to make themselves a target of the Trump administration and reserving their money for the Democratic Party’s future. Some of them said they had personal interactions with Biden’s inner circle that were so unpleasant they believed it would be difficult to ever raise significant funds for the former president.”I’d like him to have some nice library,” one donor told NBC News. “I just don’t see that’s where I’m going to spend my money.”…Biden also faces residual frustration from the party over his decision to initially seek re-election despite health issues that ultimately led to him dropping out of the race last summer after his highly scrutinized mental acuity was put on display during a presidential debate against Donald Trump. Former Vice President Kamala Harris then quickly secured the party’s nomination before losing to Trump in November.”I want an $800,000 refund,” personal injury lawyer John Morgan told NBC News, referring to money he said he raised for Biden that went to Harris last year.”I don’t believe a library will ever be built unless it’s a bookmobile from the old days,” Morgan joked.
What exactly is going to be showcased in Biden’s presidential library? His disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan? Images of thousands of people streaming across the open southern border? The autopen?
