President Joe Biden — in an interview with MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell that aired Thursday, and which was Biden’s final TV sit-down as POTUS ― mirrored on his failure to hype up his and Democratic accomplishments when in workplace.

“The mistake we made was, I think I made, was not getting our allies to acknowledge that ‘the Democrats did this,‘” Biden stated. “So, for example, build a new billion-dollar bridge over a river. Well, call it the ‘Democratic bridge’ figuratively speaking. Talk about who put it together. Let people know that this is something the Democrats did. That it was done by the party.”

“I’m not a very good huckster,” Biden acknowledged.

“That wasn’t a stupid thing for him [President-elect Donald Trump] to do,” Biden stated of the returning president’s first-term insistance that his personal signature be added to COVID-era pandemic aid checks. Biden didn’t go as far, signing a letter despatched out through the IRS which defined the funds.

Of Trump’s signature branding transfer, Biden stated: “It helped him a lot and it undermined our ability to convince people that we were the ones that were getting this to them.”

Biden steered he’d spent “too much time on the policy and not enough time on the politics.”

And of forcefully selling the occasion’s achievements, Biden stated: “It just seems, I know it sounds so stupid to say it, almost bad taste.”
