Obama Snubs Biden at 15th Anniversary of His Presidential Victory: ‘Tensions Were Evident’

The relationship between the POTUS and the VPOTUS can be a fickle thing.

Sometimes things start out well enough but end badly, as they did with former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence.

Other times, things sputter and struggle to even start out well, as with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

And then there’s whatever is going on between former President Barack Obama and Biden, who served as the former’s VP in both presidential terms.

The two-term Democrat ticket of Obama-Biden has always seemed like an odd fit from the outset — far more a marriage of convenience than anything else.

Biden, very much a swampy, career politician, never quite felt like a natural extension of Obama, very much part of the new breed of far leftism infesting the Democratic Party (think the “squad.”)

In a less-than-glowing Sunday article from The Washington Post, the outlet that threatens democracy with darkness (or something to that effect) chronicled the way in which Democrats are furiously working to overturn the less-than-stellar image of the incumbent president — except for Obama.

Earlier this month, Obama and his team planned a lavish event in Chicago that was both a Democrat rah-rah event and a celebration of the 15-year anniversary of Obama’s 2008 general election victory.

WaPo reported that, speaking to unnamed attendees of the event, there was a “pointed absence of any meaningful cheerleading for Biden.”

Obama allegedly “barely mentioned” Biden in a speech at that event, nor did he offer much praise for the incumbent on a podcast appearance earlier that day.

Now, Obama’s camp appears to be trying to squelch any anti-Biden chatter, as a representative told the Post that the Chicago event was hosted by the Obama
