O’Rourke Says President Biden ‘Failed the Country’

Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D) continues to fuel rumors of a Senate run as he offers his assessment of President Joe Biden’s (D) tenure in office, admitting that he “failed the country.”

During an appearance on the Pod Save America Podcast, Rep. O’Rourke, who’s been hittin’ the road and speaking to the people about government reform, commented on President Biden’s 2024 campaign, noting that “Biden should not have run again.”

During President Biden’s time in the White House, his cognizance was constantly in question. Despite Democrats initially defending the president, supporters like Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren (D) have since recanted their backing of the president’s cognizance, commenting that the concerns were merited.

“To be even more clear, [President Biden] failed the country in the most important job that he had,” Rep. O’Rourke commented. “In fact, the entire rationale for his presidency the first time, and the rationale he tried to sell us on for his attempt to run for re-election – ‘Only I can stop Donald Trump’… he failed to do that.”

The former Texas congressman went on to lament that President Biden’s political transgression has had a negative implication on the country, suggesting that he’s responsible for damage to the American people.

“It’s not just you and me, but our kids, and grandkids, and the generations that follow that might have to pay the price for this,” he mentioned. “We might very well lose, you know, the greatest country that this world has ever known.”

“It might be in part because of the decision that Biden, and those around him made, to run for re-election,” he added, suggesting that Democrats should have held “an open primary where the greatest talent that the Democrat Party can muster, could be on that stage. To have a competition of ideas, and track record, and vision and really excite not just Democrats, but the people of this country, who did want change.”

“If anything was clear coming out of 2024, they wanted change,” he affirmed.

Rep. O’Rourke, who has previously lost senatorial, gubernatorial, and presidential bids, is once again fueling rumors of a senatorial run in the upcoming 2026 election. He has hosted town hall events through his Powered by the People, a grassroots organization that he founded in 2019. Most recently, he spoke at a “Tide Against Trump” rally in Alabama, which was organized by the University of Alabama College Democrats as a counterprotest to President Donald Trump’s (R) commencement address at the same time.
