In the Public Relations world, we call this "damage control."
Joe Biden has had just an absolutely TERRIBLE couple of weeks in the news with Ukraine, the southern border, inflation, Justice Breyer retiring, and calling a Fox reporter an "SOB."
It seems the PR team at the White House had to find some way of making the President seem likable again and restore his image.
Enter Willow:
Yes, a gray tabby cat has come to the White House after the Biden's last pet had to be taken away for biting people.
If this isn't a desperation move from the White House, I don't know what is.
From CNN:
First lady Jill Biden has revealed the long-awaited Biden family cat.
She is a short-haired, two-year-old gray tabby named Willow. The name is inspired by the first lady's hometown of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.
Biden first met Willow at a campaign stop in 2020, according to information provided by the first lady's press secretary Michael LaRosa, when the cat jumped on stage and the owners of the farm where the event was being held noticed the "immediate bond"they shared.
"Willow is settling into the White House with her favorite toys, treats, and plenty of room to smell and explore," LaRosa said in a statement.
It must be nice to be President. It looks like you can just meet any animal out on the campaign trail and demand it be given over to you.
This cat will suddenly make Biden likable. It will be completely forgotten that he's a mean, confused old man. It's such a cute kitty cat, after all.
Look at how the media immediately forgot about war with Russia, our train wreck of an economy, Chinese aggression, empty shelves, the failure of the Build Back Better agenda, the flood of human trafficking at our border, skyrocketing crime, and everything else in the world!
World: [Burning]
Media: "AWWW, KITTY!"
Yes, that is a real headline!
How about the former newspaper called The New York Times?
Hard hitting stuff! It's hard to remember the mangled bodies of Afghanis dangling off American C-130s when you have a cute cat to look at!
Mainstream media has to pull out the clown tent for some damage control to save the regime!!
Can you imagine the headlines if Trump had a cat? It would have been 24/7 coverage of how that makes him Literally Hitler.
Call me skeptical, but I think it's gonna take a little more than a gray tabby cat to make Americans forget their empty wallets and shelves and repair this garbage president's image.
Here's hoping that Willow doesn't end up being bad for PR so the Bidens have to get rid of her!
