From WSJopinion: Biden has become his foe’s polarizing mirror image. It is exactly what he promised as a candidate he wouldn’t do
Journal Editorial Report: The week's best and worst from Kim Strassel, Joe Sternberg, Jason Riley and Dan Henninger. Image: MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty ImagesIt’s been obvious for years that while Democrats claim to fear and loathe Donald Trump, they really can’t live without him. They need him around, they want him around, because they think he’s their ticket to remain in power.
Any doubt about that proposition vanished with President Biden’s Thursday night speech that had a single political purpose: Elevating Mr. Trump to the center of the fall campaign. Forget all the high-minded talk about saving democracy, which is hardly in danger in a midterm election in which Mr. Trump isn’t even on the ballot. Democrats want to pretend the former President is on the ballot to campaign against as the great Democratic foil.
