The Democrat Party’s official X social media account used the Easter weekend to reminisce about allegedly “better times” when one of their own was leading the country – but it ignored Joe Biden’s four years in the White House. A tacit admission, perhaps, that describing Mr. Biden’s tenure as “better times” would not have been the flex they were counting on?
On Saturday, April 4, the party’s principle X account posted: “Better times at the White House,” over a photo of the president and the Easter Bunny (someone in a costume, to be clear, not the actual Easter Bunny) standing side by side, backs to the camera, gazing pensively at the Washington Monument.
But which president was in that photo? Joe Biden? No, it was Barack Obama. The Biden years do not qualify as “better times,” it seems.
Are Democrats finally admitting – albeit as subtly as they can – that, contrary to what they insisted for four years, Joe Biden’s presidency wasn’t really that great at all? It does appear so when they reach back to before President Donald Trump’s first term to find “better times.”
As one X user eloquently put it, “Oof.” Four years of the strongest economy America has ever known – or so we were told – now overlooked as if it never happened. Is it an Easter miracle? Readers may be the judge of that for themselves.
Remembering When Joe Biden Was… Memorable
Despite his obvious cognitive and physical decline, Joe Biden was constantly hailed by elected Democrats and their media cheerleaders as tireless, impossible to keep pace with, and “as sharp as a tack.” They would have had everyone believe the former commander-in-chief was the most hard-working and all-around brilliant man to ever set foot in the White House. In fact, the praise lavished on him was so effusive that it seemed clear his admirers were desperate to downplay what was inescapable to anyone who watched Biden during his public appearances.
By the time then-President Biden confirmed that he would not seek a second term, the situation would have been comical if it had not been so grave. The supposed leader of the free world often wandered around in a daze, tripped on stairs and even non-existent obstacles, and could hardly speak in decipherable sentences.
Even without the cultural and economic desolation America witnessed between January 2021 and January 2025, it really wasn’t possible for any serious observer to claim the US was experiencing some kind of wondrous era. The chief executive was at the beach in Delaware an awful lot, “transgender” activists were prancing around the White House grounds, and someone – of course, nobody knows who – was leaving baggies of cocaine lying around 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
The Easter Bad Bunny
There was also that memorable Easter when Biden was greeting visitors to the White House grounds, and the Easter Bunny tried to give him a hug. Our fearless then-leader appeared bemused, confused, and perhaps even a little scared – almost as if he had been a Roman sentry discovering that the rebellious Jew whom he saw crucified three days previously had gotten up, brushed aside the massive stone that sealed his own tomb, and waltzed out.
No one really wants to remember that (talking about the bunny incident, not the Resurrection). Not even the Democrats, apparently.
That wasn’t the only Democrat account to diss “Uncle Joe,” however. And leave it up to California Governor Gavin Newsom’s press office X account to throw subtlety entirely out the window onto a homeless encampment. “[Re-tweet] if you miss having a president with a functioning brain,” the account posted – over a portrait photograph of Barack Obama.
Give it another two years, and the Democrats will be saying, “The Biden presidency? What Biden presidency?”
The Newsom press office post inspired even Ken Klippenstein, a decidedly left-leaning “independent journalist” with an unhealthy Elon Musk obsession, to ask: “Why are you guys suddenly pretending Biden didn’t exist [sic]”
Tough times for a former world leader hoping he left a legacy, only to find out that his own party is trying to forget him. Still, the upside for Joe Biden is that he probably did not see either post – and you can bet no one brought them to his attention.
