Actor James Van Der Beek Slams DNC for ‘Coddling’ Joe Biden – VIDEO
Actor James Van Der Beek has slammed the Democratic National Committee (DNC) for “coddling” President Joe Biden.Van Der Beek is known for his leading roles in Dawson’s Creek and Varsity Blues, as well as his time on one of the CSI spinoff, shows. He also appeared on Dancing With the Stars in 2019.
Van Der Beek, who is a registered Democrat, made the comments in an interview with Fox News.
He said: “The DNC is saying there will not be a debate to decide the nominee for president. Are you ******* kidding me? There’s no debate over an 80-year-old who, if he lives, will be the oldest sitting president in the history of the country? And if he doesn’t live, has a vice president whose approval rating is worse than his? This guy has obviously declining mental faculties. You’re putting him up in front of a podium with flashcards and what the questions are going to be asked. What about the will of the people?
If we don’t have a debate, this is not a democracy by the people, it’s democracy by them. Who? Big banks, big business, big tech, big pharma, big government, big whatever. What the hell? How do we have a government, how do we have democracy if we’re letting a small little back room of people make all the decisions for us? It’s not a democracy and it doesn’t work and y’all have been wrong about a lot these past couple of years in that back room. I could be wrong about all this. I could be wrong about the guy not being fit for the job, I could be wrong about the other people being right, being legitimate, being crazy. You know what would solve that? A debate.”
Van Der Beek is not the first Democrat to criticize Biden. In recent months, a number of high-profile Democrats, including former President Barack Obama, have expressed concerns about Biden’s ability to lead the country.
However, the DNC has so far resisted calls to replace Biden. In a statement, the DNC said that Biden is “the best person to lead the Democratic Party and the country.”
