Former White House press secretary, Jen Psaki, recently shared her views on President Joe Biden's relationship with the Republican base. During her appearance on MSNBC's "The ReidOut," Psaki highlighted that the Republican base is surprisingly comfortable with President Biden despite his age and ethnicity. This article explores the reasons behind this sentiment and delves into the underestimated appeal of Joe Biden that frustrates the right wing. Let's analyze why Biden's normalcy and the inability to find effective criticism has become a source of irritation for the Republican Party.

1. Biden's Consistent Delivery Defies Expectations
Despite initial doubts surrounding Joe Biden's age and competence, he consistently proves himself capable and knowledgeable. Anchor Joy Reid aptly observed this phenomenon during the show. While some critics dismiss Biden's ability to perform effectively due to his age, he continues to surprise them with his achievements. Even when he stumbled during a graduation ceremony, sparking a Twitter frenzy, it was evident that the criticism was blown out of proportion. Reid rightly pointed out that Donald Trump, who is also older, did not face the same level of scrutiny. This observation raises the question: What is it about Joe Biden that agitates the right?
2. Biden's Normalcy Challenges Right-Wing Expectations
Jen Psaki responded to Joy Reid's question by suggesting that Joe Biden's normalcy might be the primary source of irritation for the right wing. In contrast to previous Republican targets, Biden cannot be easily painted as an extreme or offensive figure. His identity as an older white man resonates with a significant portion of the Republican base. This comfort with Biden's demographic background confounds the right-wing strategists who sought to exploit divisive issues during the 2020 election. They underestimated Biden's appeal and failed to find an effective approach to discredit him.
3. The Power of Underestimation and Resilience
Joe Biden's resilience in the face of underestimation has been a driving force throughout his political career. Psaki acknowledged this aspect, highlighting that being consistently underestimated can serve as an advantage. Biden's determination to prove his critics wrong has fueled his success over the years. However, the Republican Party's inability to find significant flaws or vulnerabilities in Biden's character and policy decisions is becoming increasingly frustrating for them. They have thrown countless attempts to tarnish his image, but none have truly gained traction. Republican strategists themselves admitted their reservations about making Biden the main opponent during the 2020 election, as people did not react strongly against him.
