Progressive Democrats are voicing their discontent with President Biden's approach during his lame duck era, as President-elect Donald Trump continues to dominate the news cycle with Cabinet nominations and high-profile meetings.
Biden has maintained a relatively low profile since Trump's re-election, allowing Trump to seize the spotlight at significant events. Notably, Biden delegated the attendance of the Notre Dame Cathedral reopening in Paris to First Lady Jill Biden, enabling Trump to engage with world leaders such as French President Emmanuel Macron and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in front of the media.
